Abstract
AT the meeting of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences on April 19, a paper bearing the above title was read by Mr. R. A. Harris, of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey. An abstract summarising the chief results arrived at has been published by the Academy: the full memoir is to be issued as an Appendix to the Annual Report of the Survey for 1899–1900. The abstract is too short to allow of critical examination of the methods employed in these inquiries, but some of the conclusions stated are very significant and important.
