Abstract
ON p. 64 of the current volume of NATURE, I find a paragraph on “Finder Circles for Equatorials,” which demands notice on my part because it impugns not only the verbal statements made to many astronomers who have inspected the instruments of the U.S. Naval Observatory, but also the correctness of an official report nude by me to the Superintendent of the Naval Observatory, and appended by him to his report for the year 1893, printed copies of which have been distributed to nearly all the observatories in the world.
