Abstract
THE BINARY-STAR 70 OPHIUCHI.—Notwithstanding the care with which the orbit of this double-star has been discussed, the companion appears to be again deviating from its predicted position to a considerable extent. It will be remembered that from the anomalous motion of the smaller star Madler was led to the suspicion that the law of gravitation does not apply in-this system, while Jacob thought there was indication of disturbance from a third body.
