FORTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT
To the Trustees and Members of The American Museum of Natural History, and to the Municipal Authorities of the City of New York:
The President has the honor to submit herewith his sixth annual report and briefly to call attention to the salient features which have marked the year 1912. The detailed activities and growth of the several departments will be found in the reports by the Director, the Curators and the Officers in charge of the scientific and financial administration included in this Report.
The progress of the Museum is in large measure due to the liberal contributions of Trustees and other Members, which exceed those of any previous year; it is in still larger measure due to the spirit of devotion to the institution which ani- mates all the members of our scientific and administrative staffs and even characterizes the workers of all classes throughout the Museum. The members of the Scientific Staff who are carrying on explorations in different parts of the world, are extending the name of the American Museum and creating world-wide interest in its undertakings.
The Museum Journal has been the means of informing our Members from month to month both of the progress of exploration and discovery and of the presentation in the exhibition halls of the results of field work: The articles are first offered to the newspapers, which are showing a constantly increasing desire to present authoritative accounts of the activities of the Museum. Public education in science, which is one of our first objects, is, perhaps, furthered in this manner as rapidly as in any other, because a vast, intelligent and eager audience is reached through the public press.
Although the location of the Museum is still far from the center of population, the attendance of the year was. 846,963, an increase of 122,822 over the figures for 1911. The general lectures were attended by 80,249 persons; the children’s
s
16 Report of the Prestdent
lectures and opportunities for special study attracted 49,872; while the circulating collections, which are sent out daily from our doors, reached 1,275,890 school children, the largest num- ber yet recorded. This system of circulating collections has been extended to some of the schools of New Jersey. It is also interesting to note that the colleges and universities of the country are making increasing use of our exhibition halls for purposes of instruction, professors and students from the colleges of New England and the Middle States making special journeys to the Museum for this purpose.
The Members of the Museum now include residents in many portions of the United States as well as several foreign countries. During the past year there has been an increase of nearly one-third in our membership, 757 new names having . been enrolled. The contributions of Members have added $6,630 (fees of Annual and Sustaining Members) to our cur-. rent income, and $12,100 (fees of Life Members, Fellows and Patrons) to our Endowment Fund. The Trustees acknowledge this practical interest of the public, which is also expressed by a very large number of contributions and gifts acknowledged in this Report under the heading ‘‘ Special Funds,” pages 102 to 117, and ‘‘ List of Accessions,’’ pages 118 to 152. ,
EXPLORATION
Since 1881 the American Museum has developed a policy of exploration rather than of purchase for the acquisition of
collections. Although large purchases are still made from
time to time, exploration is now the chief means of enriching the exhibition halls of the Museum. While specimens for exhibition are the chief aim of the explorer, he brings back a large amount of information regarding the country visited, as well as photographs, drawings or paintings, which are abso- lutely essential both for publication and as accessories to exhibition. The field photographs thus acquired now number over 8,000, and are in constant use in lectures and publications all over the country. In all, thirty-five parties were oper- ating in the field during the year 1912; every continent on the globe, except Australia, has been visited, and remarkable suc- cess has crowned the efforts of the leaders, who have not only

made important contributions to science but have brought to
the people of New York rare collections from remote seas and
parts of the earth.
NortTH America.—The Stefansson-Anderson Expedition, which was sent out in codperation with the Geological Survey of Canada, returning from four and one-half years of work in Coronation Gulf and along the shores of the Arctic Ocean, after having suffered many hardships, reported newly-discov- ered tribes of Eskimo showing evidences of mixture with the Scandinavian race. Messrs. Stefansson and Anderson brought back valuable archeological, ethnological and zodlogical col- lections and important geographical data.
Owing to the great importance of these results, a second Stefansson Expedition is being organized, in codperation with
’ the National Geographic Society, to extend over the next
three years.
The departure of the Crocker Land Expedition, organ- ized, in codperation with the American Geographical Society, to explore the land mass to the northwest of Grant Land observed by Peary in 1909, was postponed owing to the untimely death of George Borup, one of the leaders and a member of our Scientific Staff. The expedition has now been
reorganized and will leave in the summer of 1913 under the
o-~=
leadership of Donald B. MacMillan.
The work of Barnum Brown in the Cretaceous beds of Alberta, Canada, along the Red Deer River, has added to our collections several fine exhibition specimens of dinosaurs and has brought nearly to completion the years of exploration for material illustrating the life of Cretaceous times. At the same
time expeditions to New Mexico, Wyoming and Nebraska,
under Walter Granger and Albert Thomson, have yielded rich series of fossil mammals. »
The Department of Anthropology has continued researches among the Blackfoot in Alberta, the Shoshone in Wyoming, the Dakota in South Dakota, the Hidatsa in North Dakota and the’ Potawatomi in Wisconsin. Dr. Spinden has made a tour through Yucatan, Mexico and the southwestern United States, and excavations of the village sites of the Rio Grande
18 Report of the President
Pueblos have been carried on by our new curator of archeol- ogy, Mr. Nelson.
In Yucatan, Edward H. Thompson has successfully com- pleted the very difficult task of casting the facade of the fallen temple of Chichen Itza, which constitutes one of the finest examples of Mayan architecture. This facade will be re- mounted in the new Mexican Hall.
SoutH AMERICA.—Expeditions in Ecuador and the United States of Colombia, under the direction of Frank M. Chapman, have added to our collection several thousands of birds and mammals, many of them new to science. The most important scientific features of this work, however, are the division of the Andean region of Colombia into life zones, and the collection of birds and mammals from the coast to the summit of the Andes, with all the data necessary for some new habitat groups.
The oceanic and shore-birds of South America are cared |
for by a special expedition, organized by Leonard C. Sanford of New Haven, and financed by Frederick F. Brewster, which will make a circuit of the South American coast, in a vessel chartered for the purpose, under the direction of Rollo H. Beck. This collection, for the present, will be deposited in the Museum as a loan, together with the Sanford collection of oceanic and shore-birds already on deposit here.
ANTARCTIC OcEAN.—The Museum, in coédperation with the Museum of the Brooklyn Institute, has despatched Robert C. Murphy to South Georgia on the whaler ‘‘ Daisy” to secure specimens of the southern Sea Elephant, the Sea Leopard, a series of young King Penguins to complete a group of these birds, and to make general zodlogical collections.
Evurorpe.—The President, accompanied by George Grant MacCurdy of Yale University, made a tour of the prehistoric caverns of northern Italy, and of, France and Spain, and pro- cured materials illustrating the culture, and especially the art, of the men of the Upper Stone Age.
Asta.—Roy C. Andrews, in a second expedition to the Japanese coast, increased the Museum’s collection of Cetacea
ree.
Report of the President 19
at the whaling stations of southern Korea, and traversed more than four hundred miles of the unexplored wilderness of north-
' ern Korea, securing birds and mammals.
The New York Zodlogical Society, through the gift of Anthony R. Kuser, sent C. William Beebe to the homes of all the pheasants of Asia and the East Indies, as a result of which the Museum will secure, as the gift of Colonel Kuser, a complete collection of the various types of pheasants and four new Asiatic habitat bird groups.
A¥rrica.—On the African continent the Museum has been especially represented for the past four years by the Congo Expedition, under Herbert Lang and James Chapin, with the friendly codperation of the Belgian Government. The latest reports from the young explorers indicate that they have made a zoological collection which will be of unique value, including specimens of the Okapi, White Rhinoceros and Giant Eland. A duplicate collection has been secured for the Congo Museum of Tervueren, near Brussels. This is the American Museum’s second African expedition.
Our third African expedition has been sent out by friends of the Museum, under William S. Rainsford, to British East Africa, for the primary object of securing large game animals, particularly the Black Rhinoceros. Material for groups of the Buffalo, Eland and Koodoo have also been secured.
The returns from these expeditions will all come in during the year 1913, and it will require generous contributions to the preparation fund to place these collections on exhibition.
PUBLICATIONS.—Publication has hardly kept pace with this active work of exploration, although a number of reports are in progress, such as those of the Stefansson-Anderson Expe- dition, and the ‘‘ Albatross” Expedition of 1911 under Charles H. Townsend. The regular publications include Parts 1, 2 and 3, of Vol. I, of the new series of the Wemoirs; Vol. XXXI of the Sulletin ; Vol. X and parts of Vols. VII, IX, XI and XII of the Anthropological Papers; Vol. XII of the, Journal; flandbook No. 1, and Guide Leaflet No. 35. The most impor- tant publication of the year is the monograph on the Primates, by Daniel Giraud Elliot, in three volumes—a regular edition
20 Report of the President
of 750 copies, and a de luxe edition of 100 copies to be sold by subscription only. This monograph represents ten years’ work by the author and special studies in all the great museums of Europe.
Among the popular volumes issued in recent years, based chiefly on research by present or former members of the Museum Staff, may be mentioned: |
Frank M. Chapman, ‘‘ Camps and Cruises of an Ornithologist,” ‘*Bird Life,” ‘‘Guide to the Study of our Common Birds”
H. E. Crampton, ‘‘ The Doctrine of Evolution, Its Basis and Its Scope”’
L. P. Gratacap, ‘‘ Popular Guide to Minerals”
Henry Fairfield Osborn, ‘‘ The Age of Mammals” William Morton Wheeler, *‘ Ants”
RELATIONS WITH THE-CITY
The Museum is indebted to Commissioner Stover of the Department of Parks and to the members of the Board of
Estimate and Apportionment for cordial co6peration in the ~
progress of the year.
The matter of the publication of a complete list of the employes of the Museum in the Czty Record and of the stand- ardizing of all salaries paid out of the Maintenance Fund, led to a careful inquiry on the part of the Finance Committee of the Board of Aldermen and of the Comptroller, which in each instance resulted in confirming the contract of 1878 between the Board of Trustees and the City, which provides that the Trustees ‘‘ may appoint, direct, control and remove all persons employed within said building.”” The Trustees of the Museum are responsible for both the employment and the fixing of the salaries of the employes.
Pension PLan.—The responsibility of caring for our staff and our employes in case of disability or retirement has led to the preparation of a Pension Plan, originating with a com- mittee of the employes appointed by the President, and put in form by a sub-committee of the Board, of which Felix M. Warburg is Chairman. This provides for the accumulation of a contributory savings and pension fund, made by the em- ployes and Trustees, respectively, in equal amounts, which
Report of the President 21
will insure to all the members of our staff and working force who desire to take advantage of it an adequate pension after the several terms of service. This plan, if adopted by the Board at its Annual Meeting, will involve an annual contribu- tion of $8,000 from the Trustees’ funds and a similar amount from the employes.
BUILDING AND REPAIRS
In connection with the plans for the Fiftieth Anniversary which the Museum will celebrate in April, 1919, the Trustees issued on May 6 a second and revised edition of the Growth of the Building folder, which sets forth clearly and concisely the building plans which are proposed for the immediate future. Copies of this folder accompanied our application for a cor- porate stock issue in 1912 of $550,000, and copies were sent to each member of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment.
SOUTHEAST WING AND CourT BuiLpinc.—The first step in this comprehensive building plan was the construction of the Southeast Wing and Court Building of the East Facade. This was recognized by the City through the appropriation of $200,000 in 1911, for the construction of its foundation, which became available in September, 1911. The architects deemed it wisest to let a separate contract for the excavation, and the contract for the work was awarded to Di Benedetto and Egan for the sum of $48,828. Ground was broken for the new wing March 18, 1912, but owing to various interruptions the exca- vation was not completed until November, 1912.
In accordance with the proposed building plans, application was made to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment for an appropriation of $550,000 for the construction of the super- structure of the Southeast Wing and Court Building, plans for which the architects have completed. As the year advanced it became apparent that under the present financial condition of the City, this appropriation could not be made this year. The urgent need for space in which to store the large collec- tions just received or on their way to the Museum from various parts of the world, compelled the Trustees to postpone the Southeast Wing for the present and to recommend an appropri- ation of a smaller amount, namely, $150,000, which, with the
22 Report of the President
balance of the previous appropriation, will be sufficient to con- struct the Southeast Court Building only. This application is now before the Board of Estimate and Apportionment.
The figures on page 23 show that the annual contributions from all sources to the growth of the Museum have increased from $141,173.28 in 1902 to $282,684.13 in 1912; in other words, they have more than doubled. During the past decade the City has not appropriated sufficient construction and equipment funds to keep pace with the growth of the collec- tions and exhibitions. The last building erected was the West Wing, provided seven years ago. The East Wing, as well as the East Court Building, are now both urgently needed, for the very large collections from various parts of the world on which upwards of $134,000 have been expended. These collections are now in storage, and some of them are of a perishable character. The retirement of many collections from exhibition is already necessitated by the arrival of the African collections. j
EQUIPMENT Funp.—As fully.reported by the Director, all parts of the Museum building have now been put in thorough repair, and several inflammable sections have been fireproofed. This, together with the regular growth of permanent casing, exhibition work and storage cases, has nearly exhausted the $75,000 appropriated in 1911, and application has been made for another equipment appropriation of $75,000 to continue this work so necessary if the valuable new collections are to be cared for and exhibited during the years 1913 and 1914. The Board of Estimate and Apportionment has not yet acted upon this request.
SPECIAL REVENUE BONDs FOR ReEpairs.—A portion of the present building was erected thirty years ago, and since the sums appropriated for maintenance have always been insufficient to meet the regular items of maintenance, repairs to the building that were not imperative have been deferred from year to year. The more stringent interpretation, applied by the present administration to the uses of corporate stock, has also prevented the doing of certain kinds of work which formerly were considered a proper charge against corporate
Report of the President 22
stock. This led the Trustees to apply for an issue of $10,000 of special revenue bonds in order to make repairs which could not be deferred longer without serious detriment to the build- ing. This request was granted by the Board of Aldermen and the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, on July 11, 1912, and became available immediately. To secure this appropriation it was necessary to ask for the cancellation of $10,000 of the equipment fund C DP 3C.
REPAIRS BY TRUSTEES’ Funps.—In addition to this sum the Trustees have applied $8,500 of their own funds to urgent repairs to the building.
MAINTENANCE.—The maintenance appropriation by the City was increased from $195,000 to $200,000 for the year 1913, which amount at the present time is the limit allowed by statute.

HOSPITALITY TO SOCIETIES
The location of the Museum makes it a convenient meeting place for scientific organizations in the City, and as usual cour- tesies of this kind have been extended to a number of Societies. The benefits derived from these relations are mutual. For example, through coédperation with the New York Academy of Sciences, the Members of the Museum were able to see and hear Dr. Hugo de Vries of the University of Amsterdam, Holland, who gave a lecture on ‘‘ Experimental Evolution,” and Dr. Alexis Carrel of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, recipient of the Nobel Prize in Medicine, 1912, who lectured on ‘‘ The Results of the Suture of Blood Vessels”’; through coéperation with the American Scenic and Historic Preservation Society, our Members had an opportunity to hear Professor Herschel C. Parker of Columbia University give an
ta
Report of the President 27
account of his ascent of Mount McKinley, and Dr. Joseph Kossuth Dixon lecture on ‘‘ The Last Great Indian Council.”
In April, the Imperial German Commission, which came to this country to study educational methods, visited the Museum.
In connection with this City’s entertainment of the officers and crews of the German fleet, the Museum, in codperation with the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the New York Botanical Garden, the New York Public Library and the New York Zoological Society, prepared and distributed to the officers and crews a guide, printed in German, to the Museums and to the Public Library of the City.
General information regarding the Museum was also sent to the officers and crews of the Atlantic Fleet during its stay in New York in October.
In addition to these, the following societies or organizations have been entertained by the Museum during the year:

The contributions of Trustees to the General Fund this year have been $48,850; the contributions of the Trustees and other Members to the Special Funds have been $78,427.80; making a grand total of gifts to the Museum for the year 1912, of $127,277.80.
Through the generosity of Ogden Mills, the Museum has ~ acquired the famous Catlin Collection of Indian Paintings. There are 417 of these paintings made by the late George Catlin, the first great Indian painter. ‘They represent twenty years of study among the Indians, and the collection has great historic value in addition to its ethnographical interest.
Under the special patronage of J. P. Morgan, Sr., the mineral and gem collection has been enriched by beautiful examples of Aquamarine, Rubellite, Tourmaline and other gem crystals.
Mrs. E. H. Harriman has again shown her interest in the Museum by presenting a selected series of Alaskan ethnologi- cal specimens from the collection of former Governor Brady.
- From his Grace the Duke of Bedford we have received two specimens of the Prjevalsky Horse, which are very desirable additions to our unique series showing the evolution of the horse.
Through the generosity of J. P. Morgan, Jr., the Museum has acquired the Bailey Collection of Meteorites, which adds many important falls to our collection and a large number of specimens valuable for exchange.
The following are some of the other important gifts: From Grant B. Schley, a collection of rare Calcite Crystals, from El Potosi Mine, Mexico; Copper and other ores, from the Calumet and Hecla Mining Co., and from the Anaconda Copper Mining Co.; African mammals, from Alfred J. Klein; a mounted Sailfish, from John D. Crimmins; a collection of Indian photographs, from Rodman Wanamaker; a collection of birds, from Clarence H. Eagle; a collection of Colombian insects, from R. D. O. Johnson; painting of a ‘‘shovel pit,”’ from the Nevada Consolidated Copper Co.; model of Indian village on upper Orinoco River, from Rudolf Dolge; Samoan bird skins, from Messrs. J. T. Lloyd and L. A. Fuertes, and
Report of the President 29
several specimens of birds and mammals, from the New York Zoélogical Society.
To these patrons, and all others who have directly or indi- rectly contributed to the enlargement of the collections, the Trustees wish to express their heartiest appreciation.
ORGANIZATION, STAFF
We greatly regret to record the resignation of Archer M. Huntington from the Board of Trustees. Since his election, in February, 1909, Mr. Huntington has served two years as Secretary, and has rendered great service through his interest in the development of the anthropology of the Southwest by exploration and publication. Adrian Iselin, Jr., has succeeded Mr. Huntington as Secretary.
Director Lucas represented the Museum at the laying of the ‘Foundation Stone” of the National Museum of Wales at Cardiff in June, and later at the meeting of the Museums Association of Great Britain at Dublin. He subsequently visited the more important museums of the United Kingdom, noting methods of installation, lighting and ventilation, and especially the introduction of ventilating systems in buildings where they had not been planned for. During the Director’s absence of ten weeks, Curator Hovey served as Acting Director.
Curator Bashford Dean, under whose direction the Depart- ment of Reptiles and Fishes has advanced very rapidly, has entered upon a leave of absence in connection with special services abroad to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Through the death of George Borup by drowning, on April 28, 1912, the Museum lost a member of its staff of exceptional promise. Young Borup was just on the threshold of his career. By careful study he had prepared himself for serious scientific work and was well qualified for the leadership of _the important Crocker Land Expedition. Universally loved because of his genial nature, fund of humor and uniform cheerfulness, his loss is keenly felt by his colleagues and all connected with the Museum.
Early in the year Nels C. Nelson, of the University of Cali- fornia, was appointed Assistant Curator in the Department of
30 Report of the President
Anthropology, and took up his duties on June 1. Dr. Nelson’s particular field is American archeology, and his excavations during the summer in the Southwest yielded important results.
The following promotions have been made in the Scientific Staff during the year:
Department of Anthropology :
R. H. Lowie from Assistant Curator to Aevoulate eee December 20, I[912. Charles W. Mead from Assistant to Assistant Curator, January E, Loe: Alanson Skinner from Assistant to Assistant Curator, October 16, 1912. The following were the new appointments:
Department of Geology : Chester A. Reeds appointed Assistant Curator, August 1, I912.
Department of Anthropology: Nels C. Nelson appointed Assistant Curator, January I, IgI2.
I. GENERAL ADMINISTRATION
FREDERIC A. Lucas, Director
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS.—The past year has been note- worthy for progress in the installation of exhibits, in making provision for the care of study collections and in improving the general mechanical equipment of the Museum by the addi- tion of new machinery and new lights in the workshops and laboratories. Much has been done, but it is necessary to emphasize the fact that there is a great deal more to be done. The very success of the explorations of the Museum results not-only in securing material representing lost and vanishing species of men and beasts; it becomes imperative to care for the objects secured. ;:
The Museum now possesses one of the finest, probably the finest, collection of whales in the world; half-a-dozen of these huge creatures are awaiting preparation before they can be shown. The Congo Expedition will bring to the Museum more than 25,000 specimens, ranging in size from elephants to

_
feeport of the President 31
_putterflies, and these objects, secured by the expenditure of much time, labor and money, must be cared for.
Museums were, and are, leaders in the conservation move- ment of which we hear so much now-a-days; preservation is their first law, and it is as important to take care of specimens as it is to obtain them.
The most crying need of the exhibits is for labels; objects may be of great interest in themselves, but they are illustra- tions without text. One hundred thousand labels are still needed to accompany the exhibits, and a special effort will be made during the coming years towards supplying this deficiency.
The establishment of the Director’s Fund has proved of much service, and by its use for various departments it has been possible not only to secure such desirable specimens as the Forest Hogs and African Crested Rat, but to carry on some very important work.
The untimely death of the talented artist, Louis Akin, has placed a temporary check on the execution of the plan fora series of mural paintings for the Southwest Indians Hall. The preliminary figure studies had been prepared and Mr. Akin expected to have the sketches for the sixteen panels well advanced this year.
BUILDING OPERATIONS.—The alterations in the Vestibule, noted in the report for 1911 as having been planned by the architects, Messrs. Trowbridge and Livingston, have been car- ried out, the result being a vast improvement in the entrance hall, which is for the first time what it should be—both attrac- tive and dignified. The improvements include the Visitors’ Room, mentioned in the previous report, where visitors may arrange to meet their friends, examine and purchase the vari- ous publications of the Museum and write notes.
In Memorial Hall, the tablets, with suitable inscriptions for the busts of American Men of Science, have been donated by Mrs. Morris K. Jesup, and will be put in place early in 1913.
There have been, naturally, a few inquiries for the astro- nomical exhibit that has been necessarily withdrawn, pending the providing of future quarters in the Astronomical Hall; but the slight educational loss occasioned by the withdrawal of
a2 Report of the President
this is more than compensated for by the greatly enhanced appearance of Memorial Hall and the adjoining rooms. A museum of natural history is not merely a utilitarian institu- tion in which art has no place; the building, the exhibition halls, cases and exhibits, should be one and all educational in themselves, and by their artistic nature appeal to the visitor.
The replacement of the old lights in Memorial Hall by modern
fixtures, the contract for which has been let, will practically com- plete the improvements of this important portion of the building.
The most important interior work has been the construc- tion of fireproof storage in the Southwest Pavilion for the anthropological collections, which have been a source of con- tinued anxiety, as they were stored in wooden boxes. The close of the year finds sixteen rooms completed, built of rein- forced concrete, provided with electric light, fitted with metal racks and shelves, so arranged that all material can be seen at a glance, and equipped in such a manner that the contents of any room may be poisoned.
Eighty-eight metal cases have been provided for the stor-—
~ age of the osteological collection, Department of Mammalogy, and for fossil fishes, though many drawers are needed to make these fully available.
The erection of book stacks provides for a rearrangement of part of the library and for future growth as well; it also makes possible the removal of the collection of maps from their present quarters and the use of these for caring for the steadily increasing collection of skins of mammals.
CHANGES IN BUILDING.—The excavation for the new South-
east Wing and Court Building has been completed, but the ©
demands on the City finances for other purposes have pre- vented the commencement of work on the foundation of either of these structures. While both these extensions are badly needed, the erection of the Court Building is specially pressing, since this is to contain the collection of whales and other marine mammals which cannot be installed until it is erected.
The new printing room is nearing completion and is badly needed to allow for the additional press and assistants neces- sary to keep up with the regular work of the Museum.
Report of the President 33
The office rooms for the Department of Geology are also well advanced and will furnish a little relief for this department.
New ExuisiTions.—As noted by the Curator of the Depart- ment of Mineralogy, important changes are desirable in the hall containing the Morgan Collection of Gems. The room, cases and fittings should harmonize with the exhibits; they now illustrate a phase in the growth of museums that is gen- erally overlooked by the visitor, the extension of collections in an unlooked for direction, and the difficulty of making proper provision for such increase. It is recognized that the room and installation are not in keeping with its contents, but under existing conditions, with the many demands for the actual preservation of material already on hand, it is impossible to treat the various exhibits as the administration would like.
7 Many of the new exhibits, as well as extensive changes in the exhibition halls, are dealt with in the reports of the various departments. The more important individual pieces are the Cryptobranchus Group and the groups of insects. Various other groups are well advanced, among them one showing the breeding habits of the freshwater ‘‘ dogfish,” Amza, one illustrating the life history of the common toad and its associates, the Vine- yard Haven Wharf-pile Group, and the northern Sea Elephant Group. This latter has not been pushed as rapidly as it might have been, since it cannot be finished and installed until the completion of the Southeast Court Building.
The reproduction of a section of the beautiful cave on the territory of the Copper Queen Mine is also so far advanced that it will probably be completed during the first quarter of 1913, while the large and detailed model of the Copper Queen Mining Co.’s property, in course of construction for some years past, is now being assembled near by in the Hall of Geology.
The transfer of the sections of the giant Sequoia and Red- wood trunks from the Darwin Hall to the Forestry Hall has greatly improved the appearance of both rooms, and the erection of the bronze tablet of Mr. Jesup, the gift of the late John J. Clancy, provides a fitting introduction to a collection in which Mr. Jesup took special interest.

D LaseLinc.—In connection with the work of installation the Director cannot help expressing keen regret : eling of the exhibits has not progressed more ddition of a new and rapid press, with assist- printing room, has indeed greatly increased the output of work, but the proper record of operations im all branches of the Museum, the cataloging and registration of specimens, the announcements of lectures and other -educa- tional matiers have kept the printing force busy. The print- ing office, under Mr. Klassen, has not only turned out a great deal of work, but work of a very excellent and artistic charac- ter. In all, over 478,000 imprints have been turned out, vary- ing from pamphlets of eight and ten pages, to labels of asingle
Report of the President 35
line, but out of all these imprints only 6,105 were of labels, 1,468
being individual labels and 567 descriptive, three copies of
-each. It should be noted that some of these descriptive
labels included as much matter as the page of an average
book, and that many of the labels required much time to set. A condensed statement of the printing is appended:

- Itis to be borne in mind that a large amount of museum
printing is of such a nature that it cannot be done advanta- geously outside of the Museum: a very considerable portion must be done in haste, another portion must be done subject to important changes after the matter is set up, and all of it under the supervision of men whose time is fully occupied.
REGISTRATION AND CATALOGING.—It is a source of satis- faction to report that the registration and cataloging of the collections are in far better shape than ever before. Two years ago it was impossible to obtain a record of the acces- sions, loans and exchanges without applying to every depart- ment of the Museum. Now these matters are in charge of the Registrar, Mr. Pindar, and the record of the receipt and shipment of all specimens passes through the Director’s hands.
The number of accessions during the year was 850, the number of shipments 4,594, the total number of packages handled being 8,524.
The cataloging of the various departments is, in most cases, down to date, and the Registrar has not only kept up with the regular record work, but has done much in bringing together and making available lists of accessions of former years; in all he has prepared 16,000 cards during the year.
The property list, in which are recorded the furniture and equipment of the Museum, has been systematized and brought
36 Report of the President
well down to date through the energy of the Bursar, Mr. Smyth.
A good beginning has been made in classifying and cata- loging the 35,000 lantern slides belonging to the Museum and the first of the cases to contain them, provided with 120 drawers, has been constructed. |
Mr. Beers, Chief of Construction, has devised and carried out a system for designating the various halls and rooms by letters and numbers, and it is now possible to refer with exact- ness to any one of them.
PuBLICATIONS.—The publications issued are noted else- where under that heading; it remains to be said that the sale of Guide Leaflets at the Bureau of Information and by the attendants has been good, the total number of copies sold being 6,496. Several of the Gude Leaflets are now out of print, and new editions of those most needed are —
prepared. | The supply of the General Guide was exhausted in August —
~ and a new edition is now being prepared. Inthe meantime,
its place is, to some extent, taken by an index or Key to Build- ing and Collections originally prepared by Dr. Hovey, in con- nection with the meeting of the Eighth International Congress of Applied Chemistry. The second edition of this Key, which contains plans of the various floors and notes the principal exhibits on each, has just been issued.
It is a difficult matter with the other work of the Museum to provide for popular publications, the more that with the steady increase in the collections and improvement in their arrangement it is practically necessary to rewrite each and every leaflet when a new edition is required. For example, the new edition of the Evolution of the Horse, now in press, contains fifty pages and twenty-five illustrations, as against thirty pages and eleven illustrations of the previous leaflet. :
The first of a series of Handbooks, The North American Indians of the Plains, by Dr. Wissler, was issued during the year, and others of the series, on Lhe Jndtans of the Southwest, by Dr. Goddard, and on The Antiquities of Mexico and Central America, by Dr. Spinden, will appear during the coming year.
Report of the President 37
These Handbooks are more comprehensive in their nature than the Guide Leaflets, and deal with subjects, rather than with special features or portions of the collections.
The sale of colored postcards also has been good, 1,771 single cards and 1,752 sets of eighteen, a total of 33,307, having been sold during the year. The sale of publications by commercial houses differs from sales by museums in that while the one endeavors to sell at as great a profit as possible, the other strives to lose as little as possible.
The extension of knowledge by publications relating to the collections is recognized as a regular branch of museum work, and, as museums are free to the public, museum publications are usually sold at a loss.
ATTENDANCE.—It is encouraging to note the increased attendance, the more that it is not the result of special exhibits or special effort put forth by the Museum.

CARE OF BuiLpDiInGc.—In the report of 1911 attention was called to the condition of the heating apparatus in the old North Wing. It has not been possible to replace this, owing to the cost of the necessary work, and a special appropriation is needed for the purpose.
38 keeport of the President
It may be noted that progress in electric lighting has been so rapid that many of the lights and fixtures in the Museum are antiquated and utterly inadequate. They are being replaced as rapidly as possible, but here again a special appropriation must be made or the work will drag for many years.
It should also be said in this connection that the present © boilers and dynamos are not of sufficient power to permit the lighting of the entire building at one time. |
By authorization of the Board of Estimate and Apportion- ment and the Board of Aldermen, the sum of $10,000 was made available to provide for the more necessary repairs; in addition to this $8,500 was expended from the Trustees’ funds. This has been used for extensive repairs to the roofs of various parts of the building, to replace many poor window sash, repaint the exposed woodwork, repoint a large portion of the stonework on the south and west fronts, replace worn and leaky skylights and perform other badly needed work. It is to be borne in mind that the Museum has a very large roof area and that its total frontage exposed to weather is some-
- what over 2,000 feet, very much over a third of a mile. To
keep all this in good repair calls for an expenditure of from $12,000 to $15,000 yearly.
Owing to the great injury to specimens from exposure to direct light,* a sandblast outfit has been purchased and the work of transforming the windows into ground glass com- menced. Much has been done, though the work unfortunately proceeds slowly, owing to the numerous unavoidable interrup- tions; but it is hoped to complete some of the more important halls during the coming year. |
All in all, it may be said that the collections, the exhibition halls and the general equipment of the Museum, are in better condition than for many years past, and that steady progress has been made in the registration of material of all kinds and in the record of the various branches of the work of the Museum.
The greatest injury is done to the mammals, birds, birds’ eggs and insects, and the exhibits of all these objects have suffered severely by exposure to light. Many of the ene now on exhibition are worthless and some have been ruined in the short space of
ve years.

II. REPORTS OF THE DEPARTMENTS
PUBLIC, EDUCARION GEORGE H. SHERWOOD, Curator
DEPARTMENT OF PusLic EpucaTion.—It is the chief function of the Department of Public Education to assimilate the scientific data collected by other departments and present these facts in such a way that teachers can readily make use of them and children can easily understand them. By this means, we attempt to arouse in children and adults a keener interest in nature and outdoor life. The activities of the department during the year have been devoted to the improve- ment of present methods rather than to the development of new. ,
As in the past the principal means of contact between the Museum and the schools have been the circulating collections and the lectures, but certain special features have aided in strengthening the relations existing between the Museum and the educational system of the City. Of these special features, mention should be made of ‘‘Burroughs Day,” the Third Annual Teachers Day, and representation before the Committee on School Inquiry of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment.
On April ro, in celebration of the seventy-fifth birthday of John Burroughs, more than 300 pupils from the lower east side, members of the Burroughs Clubs of Public Schools Nos. 15 and 188, assembled at the Museum and under the direction of Miss Margaret Knox and Miss Ellen Phillips presented an original play which had for its theme the love of nature as revealed in Mr. Burroughs’s writings. Mr. Burroughs was present as the guest of honor, and was greatly pleased by this tribute from the children, the majority of whom were of foreign parentage.
In pursuance of the plan adopted two years ago, the Annual Teachers’ Day was held at the Museum on November 16. Brief addresses were made by Director Lucas, Dr. Gustave Straubenmiiller and the Curator, which were followed by an illus- trated lecture by Vilhjalmr Stefansson, ‘‘ Among the Eskimo
40 Report of the President
of Coronation Gulf and Vicinity.” The programs of previous years had presented material and information regarding the work in the Museum and its relation to the schools. The particular theme of this year’s program was the relation of the Museum’s explorations to the work of teachers, this being concretely illustrated by Mr. Stefansson’s discoveries in the North. There were about 7oo teachers present and many expressed themselves as having spent a profitable and enjoy- able afternoon at the Museum. : :
On May 17, the Curator represented the Museum at a meeting of the Committee on School Inquiry of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, of which John Purroy Mitchel, President of the Board of Aldermen, is Chairman. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the codrdination of the various agencies in the City which were prepared to codperate with the public educational system. ‘The Curator outlined briefly the relation of the Museum to the schools.
The department was represented at the meetings of the British Museums Association, held in Dublin in July, by
‘Director Lucas, who presented a paper on the educational
work of the Museum.
The educational methods of the Museum continue to receive attention from educators at home and abroad. In April the Imperial German Commission visited the Museum for the express purpose of studying our methods, and more recently Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, Superintendent of Schools of Chicago, and a Committee from the Chicago Board of Educa- tion made a critical examination of the work of the depart- ment with a view to introducing similar methods in the Chicago schools.
MuseuM EXTENSION TO THE SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES.—It is probable that no branch of the department’s work is more practical or exerts a wider influence than the circulating collections. Through them, nature study material is placed in the hands of the teachers in the class rooms, and many thousands of pupils come in direct contact with it. The collections contain material referred to in the syllabus of nature study, and were originally prepared with such care that
Report of the President 41
very little modification has been required. To the thirteen sets previously in use have been added the Public Health Folio which was prepared with the assistance and under the super- vision of C.-E. A. Winslow, Curator of Public Health. The folio consists of a series of fifteen photographic enlargements illustrating the spread of disease and its prevention. ‘Twelve of these folios, each accompanied by an explanatory guide, have been added to the circulating collections, and are much appreciated, especially by the high school teachers. Two additional public health folios are being prepared under the supervision of Professor Winslow, and will be issued in 1913. The distribution of the regular circulating collections to the schools has progressed as usual, and has required the services of two messengers. During the year, 491 schools have been on our list, as follows:

The total number of pupils reached is 1,275,890, a larger number than in any previous year.
Fifty collections were rented to the Newark schools and were studied by 35,821 pupils, and in a few cases the collec- tions have been loaned to other outside institutions.
Upon request of Miss Annie Carroll Moore, the Supervisor of Children’s Rooms of the New York Public Libraries, the department has continued to supply various branch libraries
42 Report of the President
of the city with ethnological collections illustrating the culture of the Indians, Chinese, Japanese, Koreans and Africans.
LECTURES TO SCHOOL CHILDREN.—Regular courses of lectures to school children have been given during the year. The new feature of the spring course was the introduction of moving picture films which added much to the interest of the children. For the most part these lectures were delivered by members of the Museum staff, but two very interesting talks on African travel were given by Carl E. Akeley, and one indus- trial lecture was given by Robert G. Weyh. We desire to acknowledge with thanks the services of these gentlemen. We also wish to express our thanks to the Canadian Pacific Rail- way Co., The Union Pacific Railroad Co., the Department of Street Cleaning of the City of New York, and the Shredded Wheat Co., for their courtesy in generously allowing us to use their lantern slides and moving picture films in our lecture on industries. | ;
The experiences of the past two years indicated the desir- ability of a change in the schedule of lectures. In the past, the regular course consisted of nine lectures, each of which was given twice. In the fall series of this year, the eighteen lectures were divided into groups of six and not repeated. The first group was on American history and geography and was given on Mondays; the second was devoted to the geography of the world and occurred on Wednesdays; the Friday series treated of great American industries. Through consultation with teachers, these lectures were more closely correlated with the regular class-room work in these subjects. An increase in the attendance and many favorable comments from the teachers indicated the advisability of the change. In connection with this course and in coGdperation with the department, the New York Public Library prepared and_ issued lists of books for the use of children. These lists were | distributed at the Museum and the children were informed that they would find the books referred to in the children’s libraries. The arrangements for these lectures were entrusted to Mrs. Roesler and Miss Wilds, and success is due in no small degree to their efficient work.
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC EDUCATION
SCHOOL CHILDREN AT THE MUSEUM
Report of the President 43
The attendance at the spring course was 15,328; at the
fall course, 16,601, a total of 31,929. This is 9,132 more than
attended similar lectures in 1911. Many of the lectures were so popular that the applications for seats were greatly in excess of the capacity of the auditorium, and in a few in- stances lectures were repeated in order to relieve the disap- pointment of teachers and children.
In addition to these regular lectures, many special lectures were given to classes from the elementary and high schools. Increasing numbers of teachers have used the lantern slides and class rooms, and it is a common occurrence to see pupils busily studying the bird groups or insects with note- book and pencil. The number utilizing the Museum in this way is registered as 10,248.
The increase in the attendance at the children’s lectures is gratifying, but in this connection new difficulties of trans- portation have been brought to light. The fact that the journey to the Museum makes many of the pupils car-sick, so unused are they to travel, the severe tax on the energy of the teachers and the cost of transportation have raised the ques- tion of arranging for lectures at school centers. While this cannot be done at present, owing to the many demands already made on our staff, the desirability of such a plan is
apparent.
Through the generosity of Henry Phipps, there was placed at the disposal of the department a fund with which to pay the car fare of children who otherwise could not afford a trip to the Museum. This money has been expended in the interests of the crippled children and the special classes in the public schools. On December 16, 366 crippled children were brought to the Museum and listened with genuine interest to African jungle stories told by Carl E. Akeley. These were illustrated by lantern slides and motion pictures and the children thoroughly enjoyed them. This large number of children, many of whom could not even walk, were transported from the schools to the Museum and returned to their homes with- out accident. 7
The second lecture was for the special classes of Districts Nos. 10 and 11, which cover part of the congested portion of

These classes are composed of children, chiefly of foreign parentage, who have not received sufficient education to secure ‘‘ working papers” and who cannot afford even car fare for a trip to the Museum; 618 of these children listened toa lecture by Mrs. Roesleron ‘‘ The Great Indus- tries and Natural Wonders of our Country.” This was fully illustrated with motion pictures.
We wish to express our heartiest thanks to Mr. Phipps for this gift which enabled us to give so much pleasure to these children.
GENERAL LECTURES.—The general lectures have been more varied than usual and have attracted much attention. They have included a’spring and a fall course for Members on Thurs- day evenings, the regular series under the auspices of the Board of Education, free lectures on public holidays, special lectures under the auspices of the New York Academy of
Sciences and Affiliated Societies, lectures in conjunction with —
the American Scenic and Historic Preservation Society and a special course of lectures for Members on the Antiquity of Man.
So great was the popularity of Paul J. Rainey’s lecture on lion hunting in the spring Members’ Course that four thou- sand people had to be turned away. Later this lecture was repeated twice in the same evening by Carl E. Akeley for the benefit of Members.
On account of the widespread interest in the origin of man and the recent discovery of prehistoric remains, a special course of lectures was arranged on the Antiquity of Man. These lectures were designed to present a popular epitome of the present knowledge of this subject. The course was opened by President Osborn and proved of great public interest.
CHILDREN’s Room.—The Children’s Room was open regu- ©
larly on Wednesdays and Saturdays during the spring and early summer. The attendance for the period was 3,105. The room has been closed since July owing to necessary changes that were being made and from the fact that the instructor’s time has been occupied with other duties in the department.
Report of the President 45
WorkK FOR THE BLinD.—Through the Jonathan Thorne Memorial Fund we have been able again to extend special privileges to the blind. Special lectures have been arranged for ghildren and adults, and collections adapted for their use have been placed at their disposal. Particular attention has been given to systematizing the work for the blind. These people have shown great timidity about coming to the Museum, which in a measure explains the small attendance; but pro- gress has been made in overcoming this difficulty. Spring and fall courses of talks on zodlogy and anthropology were given by Mrs. Roesler and Miss Wilds to the blind pupils of the public schools and similar courses for adults from the institu- tions for the blind. These were fully illustrated with speci- mens which could be handled. The attendance of pupils was 154; of adults 70. The work with the blind has been very interesting and has seemed to be a real source of pleasure to the people reached. They have been very attentive to the talks, eager for information and reluctant to have the story hour over.
A part of the income of the Jonathan Thorne Memorial Fund has been expended in paying the transportation of the blind to the Museum and for the preparation of small models to be sent to the blind pupils in the public schools, and we have to giraffes, 1o camels and ro hippopotamuses ready for
use; 12 relief maps of the world are nearly finished.
Collections of Indian, Eskimo and Japanese material have been sent to the classes for the blind in the public schools of Newark and Jersey City.
PHOTOGRAPHY AND CATALOGING.—The more successful the Museum expeditions, the greater is the burden placed on the division of photography. Especially during the past year when the scope and success of the expeditions have been great, the tax on this department has been unusually severe. Remarkable progress has been made in the routine photo- graphic work, which has been carried on by one man unas- sisted. The photographer has displayed great ingenuity and efficiency in mastering the many difficulties involved in the special photographic work necessary in connection with the
preparation of backgrounds for groups.
46 Report of the President
During the year the photographer has made 4,857 prints, 1,760 slides, 955 negatives, 339 enlargements and 33 trans- parencies, but large as these numbers are, they are no indication of the labor involved in producing the results desired. ;
Through the faithful and efficient work of Miss Muenche- hofe, the reference file of photographs grows apace. This file now numbers 29,848 prints. The file of negatives numbers 22.001. eK
It has been stated repeatedly that the Museum possesses a collection of 35,o00o lantern slides, but it has never been possible to make the fullest use of this valuable material since it is uncatalogued. A beginning has now been made on this important work. A new system of filing based on the Dewey Decimal System is being developed, which when completed will enable one to locate quickly slides on any subject desired. Nearly 2,000 slides have already been arranged in this file.
AccEssions.—The principal accessions for the year are a collection of about 150 birds’ skins from Miss Evelyn Purdie and a collection of minerals, rocks, shells and birds’ eggs from Clinton G. Abbott. Gifts from Charles Bohem, Mrs. H. S. Dewey, Miss Annie Miller and Arthur E. Krause have helped in beautifying the Children’s Room. G. Seymour Willson kindly loaned us a set of negatives of gold mining in South America from which prints were made.
MINERALS L. P. GRATACAP, Curator
DEPARTMENT OF MINERALOGY.—The past year has seen the complete installation of the minerals in the new Morgan Hall. These were practically in position at the close of 1911, but considerable refinement in the installation has improved their appearance. Large descriptive head labels in metallic frames have been placed over the yarious sections throughout the hall, enabling the visitor, by the simple process of their consecutive inspection, to find any mineral species he is in

search of. This system has already proved its value, and was quickly recognized asa needed help to the student. As in previous years, the important additions to the cabinet, outside of the Gem Collection, have come through the expenditure of the interest on the Bruce Fund.
These mineral additions, with one or two exceptions, are not remarkable for their beauty, but have scientific value, increase our series of localities and complete the collection along the less conspicuous lines of interest, to which now addi- tions must be largely confined. A little progress has also been made in reéstablishing the suite of gold specimens, and from time to time this work will be advanced as opportunity and funds permit.
It is impossible not to reflect, in view of the occasional splendid gifts of Mr. Morgan to the Gem Collection, that an increased endowment of the minerals would allow the Museum to compete for the possession of specimens which private col- lectors practically absorb in the open market. However, this deficiency of resources is fortunately compensated for, in a measure, through Mr. Morgan’s gifts, which, as they appertain to the more expensive and splendid species of the mineral kingdom, enable the Museum to secure in these species phenomenal and unique specimens.
One has only to look over the additions made by Mr. Morgan this year. to the Gem Collection to be impressed with their immense value and corresponding beauty; the huge Aquamarine from Brazil, the Euclase in the matrix, also from Brazil, the now rare Benitoite from California, the marvelous Rubellites, also from California, and the two almost unequaled crystals of Kunzite of the highest gem quality, with a mam- moth Quartz Sphere of absolute purity, illustrate strikingly the fineness and the importance of this patron’s generosity.
An important purchase during the year, secured from our general appropriation, was that of 585 Krantz wooden models of the more common crystal forms of the representative min- erals. These will be installed at the west end of the hall in a separate case, thus avoiding the unfortunate effect of their intercalation among the mineral specimens, where their appear-
ance would prove unpleasing and detrimental. The mounting
48 Report of the President
and preparation of these blocks, which will necessitate their partial coloration, are now under way. It is anticipated that they will be very much welcomed by the increasing number of visitors to whom crystallography is no longer a bugbear or a mystery.
An interesting experiment in mural decoration has been made with, we believe, a genuine popular approval. The Nevada Consolidated Copper Co., one of the Guggenheim properties, has presented us with an enlargement, in color, displayed as a painting, of a panoramic photograph of the Shovel Pit at Ely, Nevada. This difficult work has been suc- cessfully executed by Albert Operti, and was described and illustrated in Zhe American Museum Journal.
In a previous report the Curator urged a reinstallation to some extent of the Gem Collection, especially with a view to making it technically more valuable, and with no indifferent eye to the improvement of the Mineral Hall by the abstrac- tion of the Gem Room’s purely mineral contents. ‘
MAMMALS AND BIRDS J. A. ALLEN, Curator
DEPARTMENT OF MAMMALOGY AND ORNITHOLOGY.—The accessions, through exploration, gift and purchase, exceed those of any previous year in the history of the department. Of first importance in number and interest are the collections made in western Colombia under the direction of Curator Chapman. These include over 5,000 birds and about 1,000 mammals. About 3,000 birds and 1,000 mammals have been received from other sources, largely through other Museum expeditions. A much larger number than usual of both mammals and birds have been received from the New York Zodlogical Society, including many of great value to our collections.
Walter Winans of Pluckley, Kent, England, to whom the Museum is indebted for the material for the Wild Boar Group, installed early in the year, has continued to send us specimens of European mammals of much interest. The Museum is also

indebted to Clarence H. Eagle for a collection of North American birds, numbering about 850 specimens; J. T. Lloyd has presented 45 bird skins from Samoa, and Carl E. Akeley 5 specimens of adult and young Ibises from british East Africa, which proved to represent a new genus.
The important additions by purchase include collections of both birds and mammals from China, Chile and East Africa, the latter including 2 Forest Pigs and ro Elephant skulls.
EXPEDITIONS.—The Stefansson-Anderson Expedition to arctic America returned late in the year, after an absence of more than four years. The zodlogical material secured is of special interest. The collection includes 139 mammals and 218 birds, with about roo sets of eggs of arctic breeding birds. The mammals include series of Barren Ground Caribou from widely separated localities, and 18 skins and skulls of the little known Barren Ground Bear, suitable for mounting as well as for study. The smaller mammals are well represented.
Assistant Curator Andrews’s expedition to Korea was highly successful. After obtaining certain special desiderata of whales on the coast, including skeletons of the nearly extinct California Gray Whale, and of the Pacific Humpback and Killer Whales, he made a trip into the unexplored northern part of Korea, where he collected small mammals and birds, about 175 specimens of each. These will doubtless prove to include a number of undescribed forms.
Assistant H. E. Anthony spent several weeks collecting
mammals and birds in eastern Oregon, with excellent results,
this portion of the West being previously wholly unrepresented in our collections. Several species of mammals new to science were obtained, and a large series of specimens of the rare
‘Idaho Pygmy Rabbit.
The Congo Expedition, under the leadership of Messrs. Lang and Chapin, is still in the field, but is preparing to return with the immense collections accumulated during three years of highly successful work in African jungles.
The Colombian Expedition has been continued and work prosecuted from the low humid coast region into the Central Andes to altitudes of about 15,000 feet, and later to the
50 Report of the President
Eastern Andes, the Magdalena valley, and the headwaters of the Amazonian drainage. The results are of the highest interest, the number of new and rare species having proved surprisingly large among both the birds and mammals, and the facts obtained regarding the influence of environment upon the distribution and evolution of local forms are of much scientific importance. During the coming year the field of exploration will be extended to the Bogota region and other districts to the eastward. Curator Chapman will be in per- sonal charge in the field during part of the year. |
The installations include the completion of the Wild Boar | Group and the transfer of the remaining local mammal groups | to the North American Mammal Hall. The domestic races of dogs have been moved to the Darwin Hall.
CoLLecTIons on Deposit.—Dr. Dwight’s collection, con- sisting mainly of North American birds, now comprises about 35,000 specimens, and is especially rich in series illustrating changes of plumage. During the past year he has installed in the gallery of the room assigned for his collection new metal storage cases at his own expense.
Dr. Sanford’s collection now numbers several thousand specimens, chiefly North American water birds and the rarer species of North American land birds. He is making a specialty of Albatrosses and Petrels, with which all museums have hitherto been poorly supplied. In order to extend this feature of the collection he has sent into the field an excep- tionally expert collector and preparator of bird skins, with instructions to explore thoroughly the coast and islands of the southern half of South America, devoting to this task as much time as may be necessary, probably several years. During the past summer Dr. Sanford has furnished one-half of the floor space of the room assigned to his collection with the most improved type of metal storage cases, at his own expense.
These two collections add greatly to the ornithological resources of the Museum, since they are available for use by the staff of the department in the prosecution of research work.
The cataloging of the collections has been kept up to date, and much work has been done on the index catalog
Report of the President 51
of the mammals.. The rearrangement of the osteological material has not been taken up, as was hoped would be - possible, owing to lack of storage facilities.
PuBLICATIONS.—HEight papers published in the Audleten for this year represent the scientific work of the department. Others are well advanced in preparation, including one on the Muskoxen and their near allies, living and extinct, by the Curator, now in press in the Memoirs.
‘CA Review of the Primates,” by D. G. Elliot, in three royal octavo volumes, has been printed during the year, but its publication has been delayed awaiting the completion of the colored plates. These volumes aggregate 1,348 pages, with 128 half-tone plates of skulls and figures from life, and 28 colored plates. This work forms the first of the Monograph series, and is the largest and most important single zodlogical publication thus far undertaken by the Museum.
EXTINCT VERTEBRATES HENRY FAIRFIELD OSBORN, Curator Emeritus; W. D. MATTHEW, Curator
DEPARTMENT OF VERTEBRATE PALZONTOLOGY.—The past _ year has been one of unusual success in the field. In the Cretaceous formations of Alberta, Associate Curator Brown secured a magnificent collection of fossil reptiles including three fine skulls of Horned Dinosaurs, a complete skeleton with skin of a Duck-billed Dinosaur, materials for completing a mounted skeleton of the great Armored Dinosaur, and a large series of skulls and skeletons of dinosaurs, most of them new or little known. Associate Curator Granger secured from the Eocene of New Mexico and Wyoming a large collection of the rare and interesting fossil mammals of this epoch, which will be of great value in unraveling the early stages in the evolution of various races of quadrupeds. Mr. Thomson obtained from the Lower Miocene of Nebraska three splendidly preserved skeletons of the gigantic and grotesque ‘‘Clawed Ungulate” Moropus, which had been one of the greatest desiderata for the Tertiary Mammal Hall. A conservative
52 Report of the President
estimate of the value of the more important exhibition speci- mens shows a total of over twice the whole cost of the three expeditions, in addition to collections of great scientific value but difficult to estimate commercially.
Cusan CoLiectTions.—The collections of Cuban fossil vertebrates, made under the generous direction of Carlos de la Torre of the University of Havana, and of Associate Curator Brown, are now being prepared for study and exhibi- tion. Dr. dela Torre has also deposited on loan his earlier collections from Cuban localities, as also those of Sefior © Moreno. These collections constitute practically all that is known of the extinct vertebrate life of the island, and repre- sent one of the most important discoveries of recent years. They will be described and illustrated in the Memoirs of this Museum, by Dr. de la Torre and the Curator. .
EXHIBITION MertHops.—The work of reinstalling the exhibits on the panel system has been continued, the Uznza- there case being completed, the Z7z/anothere alcove practically completed and some progress made on other groups. A fine group has been completed illustrating the conditions which caused the burial of the wonderful deposit of Pleistocene fossils in the asphalt beds of La Brea near Los Angeles. The specimens for this group, complete skeletons of the Sabre- tooth Tiger and Extinct Wolf, and skulls with a fore limb of a great Ground Sloth, were secured through exchange with the University of California. A cast of the skeleton of the Giant Lemur MMegaladapfis of Madagascar, also secured through exchange, has been mounted and placed on exhibition. A skeleton of the Four-toed Horse Hofzppus and another partial skeleton of the same, both from the Lower Eocene of the Big Horn valley, Wyoming, have been prepared and mounted for the Evolution of the Horse Alcove. A number of dinosaur specimens secured by Mr. Brown in Alberta have been pre- pared and temporarily exhibited in the case opposite the elevator, and the preparation of a complete skeleton of a new Duck-billed Dinosaur Saurolophus, is nearly completed. A splendid skull of the ‘‘ Giant Pig”’ Dinohyus has been mounted

on the panel to the left of the entrance of the Tertiary Mammal Hall. Most of the material secured by the field expeditions of 1911 has been prepared for study, and for mounting in exhibition groups where desirable. Some pro- gress has also been made in the preparation of the 1912 collections. .
_ The transfer of the Osborn Library to the Museum, and its cataloging and general supervision and care under direction of the Librarian, have made it more than ever valuable and convenient for research work in Vertebrate Palzontology.
PUBLICATION AND RESEARCH.—Research work was con- tinued as usual, by Professor Osborn and Dr. Gregory upon the Z7ztanothere Monograph for the United States Geological Survey, by Professor Osborn and Mr. Brown upon Cretaceous Dinosaurs, by Dr. Matthew and Mr. Granger upon Lower EKocene mammals and by Professor Osborn and Dr. Matthew upon the Evolution of the Horse. In addition a number of valuable researches upon Museum material have been con- tributed by scientific authorities not upon our staff, notably, Dr. von Huene upon Permian vertebrates, Dr. Shufeldt upon Pleistocene birds and Dr. Cockerell upon Tertiary land shells.
SALES AND ExcHANGES.—A number of valuable duplicate specimens and casts have been sent to other museums during the year. Of these the most important are a skeleton of the Primitive Ungulate Phenacodus, sent to the Senckenberg Mu- seum, two fossil skulls to the British Museum, and five copies each of two splendid casts recently prepared, the skull of Tyrannosaurus and skeleton of Zryops, sold to different muse- ums. The net total of these sales, excluding unfilled orders, is $2,350. Exchanges with the University of California, Munich University and the Geological Survey of India have been arranged during the year.
PHoToGRaPpHyY.——-Dr. Gregory and Mr. Anderson have devoted considerable time during the year to the preparation and supervision of illustrations for Dr. Elliot’s monograph of the Primates. Mr. Anderson has also prepared and photo-
54 Report of the President
graphed a minute fossil skull, of extraordinary scientific value, found by Mr. Granger in New Mexico during the summer. The usual number of field photographs and a number of — museum exhibits have been added to the files.
SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.—The skeleton of Lohzppus, found in 1910, has been recorded as a gift of Frank K. Sturgis, in recognition of his contributions toward the field work which resulted in its discovery. This specimen is now installed in the Horse Alcove. To Langdon Gibson the Museum is indebted for a fossil walrus skull, dredged in Penobscot Bay.
Acknowledgments are due to the Trustees whose continued interest and generous support have made possible the main- tenance and success of the field and laboratory work.
Horst EvoLuTIon SERIES.—The alterations and additions in this alcove are more advanced than elsewhere toward what we regard as the new ideals of exhibits. The methods of —
-paneling the cases, of unifying and simplifying the exhibits,
and of emphasizing especially some one principle in each alcove, have proved fairly satisfactory, although the rearrangement is not yet complete.
The Guide Leaflet on the Evolution of the Horse has been revised and improved, especially as to the illustrations, so as to conform to the new arrangement of the alcove, and the new edition is now in press. |
EXISTING REPTILES, BATRACHIANS, RECENT AND EXTINCT FISHES
BASHFORD DEAN, Curator*
DEPARTMENT OF ICHTHYOLOGY AND HERPETOLOGY.—Dur- ing the past year this department has made progress in all its activities: in enlarging its exhibits; in adding to, and caring for, its reserve collections; in broadening its exchange relations with other museums, and in the scientific study of its collections. Though one of the youngest departments in
* During the leave of absence of Dr. Dean, Louis Hussakof, Associate Curator of Fishes, has been Acting Curator of the department.
Report of the President 55
the Museum, it has grown so steadily that it bids fair soon to rival the much older, similar departments in other great museums. The department has been fortunate in having at its disposal the Cleveland H. Dodge Fund, which has enabled it to add to its collections many rare and desirable fishes as these have been offered to the Museum.
We gratefully acknowledge the generosity of the New York Zodlogical Society, which has provided the department with many specimens of both fishes and reptiles.
The event of the year was the progress made on the exhibits. This has taken two directions: first, the enlarging of the synoptic series, the series containing examples of the various families of fishes, amphibians and reptiles; and second, the preparation of habitat groups. In the synoptic series, a total of 177 specimens were added to the exhibits. In addition to these, three habitat groups, two of fishes and one of the Giant Salamander, were opened to the public. These groups afford an opportunity for displaying the creatures in their various activities, such as securing food, escaping enemies, building nests, etc., besides lending a touch of nature, often of great beauty in color and artistic detail, to the exhibition hall.
EXISTING FisHes.—The synoptic exhibit in the Recent Fish Hall was increased during the year by the addition of 85 specimens. These are mounts, except in those cases where the poor condition of the original, or the necessity of repre- senting it on a larger scale, has made desirable the preparation of a model. Among the specimens worthy of special mention are several large fishes hung on the walls above the cases, including two Sea Sunfish (J/o/a mola), one of them over ten feet in length and supposed to be of record size, a six-foot Arapaima from the Amazon River, two nine-foot Alligator Gars, a beautifully mounted Jewfish and two magnificent Sailfishes.
Early in the year, the department completed and opened to the public the Paddlefish Group, the first of a series of groups planned for the fish exhibit. This represents a school of that singular sturgeon, the paddlefish, swinging around toward a fisherman’s seine in one of the smaller lakes of the
56 Report of the President
lower Mississippi valley. The studies for this group were made at Moon Lake, Miss., in 1gro.
Another group completed during the year was that of the Sea Lamprey. This represents three lampreys which have run up ariver in the breeding season, in the spring, and are carrying away the pebbles with their suctorial mouths so as to make a depression, or nest, in the river bottom in which to spawn. The studies for the group were made on the Nisse- quogue River at Smithtown, L. I.
The department has also in preparation four other fish groups. Three of these, the Ama, Gar Pike and Shovel- nose Sturgeon, were designed to represent the ganoid fishes peculiar to North America; one of them, the Amza Group, is nearing completion. These will be window groups, illuminated by the colored light streaming through painted glass inserted in the windows. The field studies for these groups, which were made possible through the Dodge Fund, were carried out in Wisconsin, in the spring of 1912. There is also under construction a semi-diagrammatic group of the Australian Lungfish (Veoceratodus, of which the department was fortunate in obtaining a number of specimens. This group will be of much scientific as well as popular interest, since specimens of the fish are rather rare and the species, it appears, is on the verge of extinction.
Fossi, Fisues.—This exhibit was increased by a total of 33 specimens, chiefly restorations of high artistic finish. Some of these have been attempted for the first time, and all have been carried out with strict attention to scientific accuracy, while not neglecting, at the same time, to represent the fish as life-like as possible. Among those worthy of special mention are a model of the ancient shark Cladoselache, based upon the fossils of which the Museum has the largest collection»in the world; Pleuracanthus, an ancient shark belonging to a group also extinct, remarkable for having a powerful serrated spine back of the head; a model of Semzonotus, and three reproduc- tions of models in the British Museum. Two panels illus- trating the evolution of the Arthrodires were arranged, one showing the progressive changes in form and size of the head,

Report of the President 57
the other the gradual increase in size and effectiveness of the jaws.
Owing to the small size of this exhibition hall, it is not possible to introduce many additional specimens; progress must be rather along the lines of improving the artistic and scientific detail of the exhibit.
AMPHIBIANS AND ReptTiLes.—The chief event in this field was the completion and opening of the Cryptobranchus Group. This represents the Giant Salamander, or Hellbender, in various activities amid the rocks in the shallows of the Alle- gheny River. A painted background, which blends with the water, rocks and trees in the foreground, gives the illusion of a sunlit vista up a shallow stream flowing over a bed strewn with rocks, and overhung by the drooping foliage of trees. The materials and artistic details for the group were prepared under the supervision of Miss Dickerson. The scientific data for it were supplied by Bertram G. Smith, an authority on this creature, who has made intimate studies of it in its native haunts and has written extensively on it.
Two other groups are also under way. One is to represent the common toad with its various associates, as it appears in its natural surroundings in New England, toward the end of spring. Some progress has also been made on a group of that interesting reptile, the California Chuckawalla, based on materials collected in southern California in 1910, by Charles H. Townsend, Director of the New York Aquarium.
In the synoptic series, 59 amphibians and reptiles were added to the exhibit. Among these may be mentioned, as of special interest, mounts of Weloderma, Varanus, Crocodilus, and casts of Rana goliath, Ophisaurus and Bufo alvarius.
StupDy Co.LLectTions.—During the year the study, or teserve, collection of fishes was overhauled by Mr. Nichols, and the specimens rearranged on an improved plan. The same was done for the herpetological collections by Miss Dickerson. About 1,100 cards were added to the card catalogs in the department, giving references to some 3,100 speci- mens. The collections now number, roughly, 8,000 fishes, 7,000 fossil fishes, 7,000 amphibians and reptiles. An
58 , Report of the President
additional room in the basement, adjoining the present store- room, was made available for use by the department to accommodate the alcoholic and dried herpetological collections. This room has been fitted with metal fire-proof shelving, similar to that in use in the United States National Museum storerooms, and is now ready for occupancy. Removing the ~ herpetological collections to this room will allow more space for the fish collections, and during the coming year the fish storeroom will be fitted up similarly to the herpetology room. The fossil fish storeroom on the fifth floor has been provided with additional metal cases, which will more than double its previous storage capacity.
In connection with the growth of the collections of the department, it should be mentioned that Professor Dean has made special efforts, during the year, to arrange exchanges with museums throughout the world. Many valuable speci- mens have thereby been received from distant localities, e¢. g., British Guiana, Australia, Formosa, South Africa, as well as many museums in Europe and America.
EXPEDITIONS.—Thanks to the Cleveland H. Dodge Fund, the department has been able to participate, to some extent, in the large expeditions sent out by the Museum, and also to meet the expense of several minor expeditions. In this way the department has had entire or partial interest in six expedi- tions, namely, to Wisconsin, for the collection of ganoid fishes; to Cuban waters; to South Georgia Island; to British Guiana and Central America; to Japan and Korea, and to the Belgian Colony of the Congo. The Arizona desert expedition was financed from the ‘‘ Director’s Fund.”’ The expeditions already returned have brought valuable material to the Museum.
RESEARCH.—The officers of the department have devoted such time as could be spared from their other duties to the fe scientific study of the collections in their charge. Some of these studies have already appeared, and a number of others are in hand and will be carried on as opportunity offers. Seven Museum Bulletins were published by the department during the year, and a number of popular articles have appeared in the American Museum Journal.
Report of the President 59
EXISTING INVERTEBRATES HENRY EDWARD CRAMPTON, Curator
DEPARTMENT OF INVERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The past year has witnessed marked progress in all lines of activity. New and elaborate exhibits have been placed in the halls, much constructive work has been accomplished in cataloging and arranging the study collections, and several scientific investiga- tions have been pushed forward and some of them have been published. Mr. Grossbeck has been assigned to the imme- diate oversight of Lepidoptera, in place of Mr. Beutenmiiller.
Extensive additions have been made to the study collec- tion. Most of the new material has been secured through our own expeditions, of which four were sent out during the year, while additional field work in our more immediate neighbor- hood was prosecuted by three officers. As before, all field work has been coodrdinated through its relation to the exten- sive studies which the department as a whole has instituted, namely, those of the distribution, evolution and migration of the invertebrate organisms of North and South America.
_ Especially valuable are the results of Mr. Grossbeck, assisted
by William T. Davis, in southwestern Florida. A new field for comparison of northern and arctic forms was entered by Mr. Leng, who devoted several weeks to collecting in Labrador and Newfoundland. Mr. Miner spent four weeks in making a
_ detailed biological study of the Greylock Range of the Berk-
shire Hills and obtained many insects and myriapods. Later he spent some weeks at Woods Hole, Mass., with members of the preparation room staff to complete the observations and preliminary sketches for projected groups of Bryozoa inhabit- ing shallow water. Early in the year, Professor Wheeler carried on field work in Central America. In November Pro- fessor Crampton made a reconnoissance of New Providence in the Bahama Islands for the collection and study of terrestrial molluscs especially, and to ascertain how desirable it might be for the department to give fuller attention to this outlying region. During the summer Dr. Lutz, Professor Treadwell and Professor Crampton also prosecuted field work in regions nearer New York City.
60 Report of the President
INVERTEBRATES IN GENERAL.—Several notable exhibits have been installed in the Darwin Hall in the course of the year. The Annulate Group has been completed; itis one that arouses considerable interest on the part of visitors. A still more elaborate exhibit is that which displays a variety of Organisms associated upon the piles of a wharf; it is a repro- duction of a portion of a wharf at Vineyard Haven, Mass. Despite its complexity and the great number of small models that necessarily enter into its composition, this exhibit has been finally completed. In addition to the displays of a faun- istic nature certain other items have been installed. An assemblage of field mice and their enemies, represented in a natural habitat, serves to illustrate the intricacies of organic interrelationships and the consequent struggle for existence. Numerous varieties of dogs illustrate the results of artificial selection that were given special prominence by Darwin. Soon to be placed in the Darwin Hall is a large topographic model © of the Island of Tahiti, already completed, which will serve two purposes: it will bear distinctive examples of the land snails under investigation by Professor Crampton, thus demon-
strating the principles of geographical distribution, and it con-
stitutes one member of the series of models of the Society Islands which in its entirety will show the mode of evolution of a coral atoll from a barrier reef surrounding a volcanic peak. Several other smaller models have been added to the systematic series. Much time and labor have been given by the preparation staff of this department to work for other departments; a large and detailed model of the House Fly and a series of models of Bacteria are the most prominent items under this heading.
Insects.—Marked and gratifying progress has been made | in this division during the past year. We have been fortunate | in receiving by gift a large number of specimens; Mr. Gross- beck has donated his splendid large collection of Geometridz, Mr. Leng has given extensive series of Coccinellid and Cerambycid beetles, R. D. O. Johnson of Medellin, Colombia, has presented a valuable collection of insects from that locality, and the members of the New York Entomological

Report of the President 61
Society have continued to fill in the weak places in our local collections. Dr. Lutz, in continuing the local field work of this division, has replaced many specimens devoid of exact data with specimens accompanied by careful field notes, he has added a number of species new to the collection as well as forms new to this locality, and has discovered certain species new to science. This work also has continued to receive the hearty and efficient support of the New York Entomological Society. The magnitude of the task of securing a complete collection of local insects is indicated by the fact that in spite of so many years of work on the part of so many investigators, our collections still lack more than 5,000 of the species to be found within fifty miles of New York City.
Field work in other regions has yielded most satisfactory results. Early in the year Mr. Grossbeck, assisted by William T. Davis, made collections in southwestern Florida to extend and supplement the work accomplished last year by Messrs. Lutz, Leng and Davis. The material thus secured, together with that already on hand or generously loaned from other collections, is being studied by specialists. Their results will be published ina series of reports under the general title of ‘‘Insects of Florida.” The report on the Diptera is already prepared for the press; it is by C. W. Johnson of the Boston Society of Natural History, and lists 832 species, of which 382 are additions to the best previous list. This monograph also gives a discussion of the important relationship borne by the Floridan fauna to those of surrounding regions. Entomo- logical field work was also carried on in Newfoundland and Labrador by Mr. Leng, accompanied by George P. Engelhardt of the Brooklyn Museum. The specimens secured on this expedition are particularly interesting because of their value for the problems of geographical distribution, and because many of them are either new species or undescribed local races. The spiders obtained at the same time are under investigation by J. H. Emerton of Boston.
The work of the year on the general collection of insects has consisted largely of the assembling of named specimens and the preliminary sorting of unidentified material into the larger taxonomic division. The regular staff has had little
62 Report of the President
time to devote to the more critical study of the collections, and were it not for the cordial codperation of outsiders but little progress could have been made in rendering them of
greater scientific value. There are more than one million —
specimens of all species in the charge of officers of their divisions, and many of these may be made of far greater scientific interest through their adequate study when this may ‘become possible. Naturally, the preliminary work noted above is the first essential. One of the most important phases
of the year’s work has been the careful cataloging and labeling ©
of type specimens; more than 1,700 species of insects are represented either by types or by cotypes.
Three large groups have been placed on exhibition in the Hall of Insects. One of these shows a swarm of migratory butterflies (Danais plexippus) resting on a small oak tree; another illustrates more than a dozen distinct features of the biology of the periodic Cicada (Zzbicen septendecim); while the
third is a reproduction of a nest of the mound building ant _
(Formica exsectoides) showing about four hundred insects at work. ‘These groups show a notable advance upon the usual methods of exhibiting insects through the adaptation of means earlier employed for the exhibition of birdsand mammals. By reason of the small size of insects it is possible to display large numbers of individuals within an area of a few square inches in a setting which reproduces their natural surroundings; they are very useful in fixing the interest of visitors and thus inducing them to read the labels which explain the scientific points illustrated by the exhibits.
Mo.uuscs.—During the year the collections have been en- larged by certain items which will doubtless repay closer study. Arthur D. Gabay has continued his gifts of attractive material which, with that acquired in former years, might be incorporated in an exhibit illustrating the ornamental uses of shells. The collections of the genus Cerzon, already consider- able, have been amplified by the material collected during the year in the Bahama Islands by the Curator.
The collection of shells is now safely housed in iron cases provided for its permanent installation in the new Hall of
Report of the President 5 63
Moliuscs. Considering the long exposure incidental to its
‘removal, its condition is satisfactory, although time and labor
will be required in order that the shells may be freed from accumulated dust and may be arranged properly. It is hoped that this hall may be soon freed of construction work so that the whole collection may be placed in final order. The officers in charge are most anxious that this may be done, while in addition the visiting public shows many evidences of its desire to renew its acquaintance with the collections of shells.
Visitors to the Museum are mainly uninstructed in the details of conchology and hence the immediate purpose of a hall is to offer suitable general and educational exhibits. Yet it is increasingly evident that a separate room is desirable for those shells which are more valuable for purposes of study than for exhibition. In pursuance of the first purpose the present intention is to utilize about six cases on the north side of the hall for an exhibit of molluscan fauna of New York State, arranged according to the forthcoming report of Dr. Pilsbry. The other collections will display Industrial and Ornamental Uses of Shells; Variation in Form, Sculpture, Ornamentation, Color, etc., in progressive or mutational series, as in various species of Pyramidula, Cyprea, Purpura, Pecten, etc.; Fossil Ancestry of Genera (Ostrea, Fusus); Adaptation of Habitats (Solen, Mya, Ostrea, Lithodomus, etc.); Abyssal Forms as contrasted with Littoral or Shallow Water Forms; Eggs, Nidamental Sacs, Capsules and the like. At the front of the hall biological groups will be placed which will illustrate the morphological, physiological and ecological characteristics of Mollusca as distinguished from their taxo- nomic features.
GEOLOGY AND EXTINCT INVERTEBRATES EDMUND OTIs Hovey, Curator
DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY AND INVERTEBRATE PaAL‘on- tToLocy.—The chief features of the past year’s history in this department pertain to the Crocker Land Expedition and the changes in the installation of the hall.
64 Report of the President
CROCKER LAND ExXPpEDITION.—Plans for this enterprise were going forward satisfactorily in every respect, the personnel of the party was acceptable and financial support seemed to be fully assured, when on 28 April, George Borup, the leader of the expedition, was drowned while skirting the - shores of Long Island Sound near Crescent Beach in a canoe. The details of the accident are unknown, but everything points to the conclusion that he lost his own life in trying to save that of his companion, E. C. Case of Hartford, Connec- ticut. This lamentable accident deprived the Crocker Land Expedition of its leader, and led to the postponement of its start for a year. The loss to science in general and to the Museum in particular through Mr. Borup’s death is large. Qualified by mental faculties to do scientific work of high grade, particularly along exploratory work in charge of geography, Mr. Borup was of asunny disposition which made warm friends for him wherever he went. He had personal courage and other qualities that made him a natural leader of men.
In the fall the expedition was reorganized. Donald B.
: MacMillan, who had been co-leader of the original party with
Mr. Borup, was appointed its leader, and in conference with him revised plans for the work were adopted. W. Elmer Ekblaw, of the University of Illinois, was chosen the geologist of the party and Ensign Fitzhugh Green, U.S. N., was chosen for the cartographic and magnetic work, Mr. MacMillan himself retaining charge of the anthropological and meteoro- logical sides of the expedition. The active endorsement and cooperation of the Navy Department are shown by the fact that it ‘‘detailed Mr. Green for duty on the expedition,” thus retaining for him his full position in the Navy during his absence in the arctic. The general handy-man, mechanic and cook has been appointed, but the surgeon and a general scientific assistant remain. to be selected. bs Plans are on foot for codperating with the Government in establishing a Weather Bureau station at the principal head- quarters on Flagler Bay, which, if carried out, will entail an enlargement of the scientific staff. The Crocker Land Expedi- tion will start in July, 1913, and will codperate with the second Stefansson Expedition in completing the exploration of the

_ region north of North America and west of the goth meridian of West Longitude.
REARRANGEMENT OF CoLLEecTIoNsS.—The plans for the rearrangement of the hall were put into active operation dur- ing the year, and, with the assistance of Chester A. Reeds, who assumed duties as Assistant Curator in the department on 1 August, much progress has been made. It is now pro- _ posed to devote the west half to historical geology and the stratigraphic series of fossils, and a portion of the eastern half of the hall to a typical biological series; the remainder of the hall will be devoted to phenomenal and structural geology, and space has been cleared in the northeast corner for the reception of the Copper Queen Mine model which is being pre- pared through the generosity of James Douglas. |
The reproduction of the Copper Queen Cave is almost finished, and some excellent cave material has been received from other regions, particularly a collection of Calcite and Aragonite crystals from the El Potosi Mine of Chihuahua, Mexico, as the gift of Grant B. Schley, and stalactites and stalagmites from caves in Edmonton County, Ky., as the gift of the Mammoth Cave Estate.
Other accessions worthy of particular mention are copper ores and associated rocks from Butte, Mont., presented by the Anaconda Copper Mining Co., a model of the Panama Canal and a large number of meteorites. The latter came partly through the acquisition by gift from J. Pierpont Morgan, Jr., of the collections of meteorites left by the late Professor Stratford C. H. Bailey, a noted collector of his day, and through exchange or purchase. The total number of additions to the exhibition series comprises representatives of 87 falls, including about 14,000 specimens. The most noteworthy of the falls are the specimen forming eight-tenths of the famous Tomhannock Creek, N. Y., meteorite weighing 3% pounds, the 665-pound mass of the Amalia (Mukerop) iron, the Shrewsbury (600 grams) aérolite and the series of 1,080 speci- mens varying from 1/10 gram to 6,650 grams in weight of the Holbrook, also an entire mass of the Cruz del Aire iron weighing 15,082 grams.
66 Report of the President
The subglacial pot-hole from the town of Russell, St. Lawrence County, N. Y., which was mentioned in my last annual report, was transported to the Museum during the winter and mounted under the archway in front of the main entrance, as a companion piece to the Kelley’s Island glacial grooves.
The 450-kilogram Mainka seismograph which was presented last year by Emerson McMillin to the New York Academy of Sciences, arrived during 1912, and was deposited by the Academy at the Museum in care of this department. The installation included the construction of a solid concrete pier reaching to the solid rock, and the instrument is now on exhi- bition in the little room reached from the southeast corner of the Eskimo Hall on the ground floor. This is the largest instrument in the United States for recording earthquake shocks.
EXISTING AND EXTINCT RACES OF MEN CLARK WISSLER, Curator
DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY.—Several important ac- cessions are credited to the year just closed. Ogden Mills presented some 400 oil paintings by the famous George Catlin, many of which are now on exhibition in the Plains and Wood- lands Halls. Mrs. Edward H. Harriman presented a large collection from the Tlingit and Haida Indians of Alaska. From the field work the greatest returns in collections were by the southwestern archeological expedition in charge of Assistant Curator Nelson and the Stefansson-Anderson ex- pedition to Coronation Gulf. In addition may be mentioned a Penobscot collection by Dr. Speck and Mr. Paul, a Potawa- tomi collection by Mr. Skinner, a Hidatsa-Mandan collection by G. L. Wilson, a Ute-Shoshone collection by Dr. Lowie and a New Jersey Rock-shelter series by Mr. Schrabisch.
There were many small gifts of specimens during the year as noted in the accession list. It is hoped that such gifts may increase, for in this way the general collections are gradually rounded out and made useful for study and reference. The year just closed has been marked by the great increase in the
Report of the President 67
number of calls from persons looking up special points in “anatomy, archeology and ethnology. Such students find our museum storage collections very useful, and it is usually these collections that are strengthened by the many small gifts of our patrons. We desire, therefore, to express our great appreciation of the gifts so far made and the hope that the members and friends of the Museum will encourage further contributions.
EvuROPEAN ARCH#OLOGY.—The most important work of the year was a study of paleolithic man in western Europe by President Henry Fairfield Osborn. All the important caverns and sites yielding cultural and anatomical remains of paleo- lithic man were visited and the principal museum collections studied. Special attention was given to the correlation of the geological and faunistic characters of the period with the somatological and cultural characters. Some of the results of this investigation were made the subject of a special lecture in the Museum on November 20.
Special arrangements were made with the leading investi- gators and museums of France and Spain by which type collections for the various successive periods will be placed on permanent exhibition in our Archeological Hall. Permission was received through the courtesy of Professor Hugo Ober- maier to make a model cross-section of the newly discovered deposit in the cavern of Castillo and to receive type specimens from the successive layers. All this constitutes a very great advance in the development of anthropology in this museum.
Several type collections were purchased and one small cavern excavated by Professor George Grant MacCurdy of Yale, who accompanied President Osborn on his tour of the caverns. Among the specimens secured by President Osborn is a large slab of stone from Sergeac (Dordogne), bearing the engraving of a horse. This valuable relic of paleolithic man will soon be installed in the European exhibit and will be one of our most important scientific assets.
NorRTH AMERICAN RESEARCH.—The research work of the department has been along the definite lines noted in previous
68 Report of the Prestdent
reports. Under a special fund provided by Archer M. Hunt- ington, Assistant Curators Spinden and Nelson worked in the Southwest. Dr. Spinden spent the first quarter of the year on the religion and art of the Rio Grande Pueblos. These villages present some of the most important and at the same time some of the most difficult ethnological problems in the Southwest. As the work now stands Dr. Spinden has full data on the material culture and art and has made a beginning on religion and social organization. The general plan for the work in the Southwest was to make a detailed investigation of the living Pueblo peoples and then to take up the archeology of aban- doned Pueblo villages, first those abandoned since the Spanish occupation and later those of undoubted pre-Spanish origin. Mr. Nelson began the latter part of this investigation last May. A careful survey of the whole Rio Grande valley from El] Paso to Santa Fé was made and the important sites plotted and characterized.
During the rebellion of the Pueblos against the Spanish in 1680, the inhabitants of Cochiti fled to a higher mesa and built a new village, where they lived until 1694 or until the Spanish stormed the mesa and burned the village. We thus have in these ruins a definite cross section of early historic Pueblo culture. This ruin was carefully excavated by Mr. Nelson and will be made the basis of a comparative study.
In the Galisteo basin south of Lamy are a number of important ruins, some of which were occupied in Spanish days. Here San Cristobal, Largo and several others were excavated during the season, making seven in all. More than 500 rooms were cleared out. The collections selected for further study are now in the Museum. It is planned to make this excellent showing but a beginning of the systematic archzological exploration of the whole area to the south.
In the Plains the special subject of investigation was men’s societies and ceremonial organizations. Assistant Curator Lowie visited the Comanche, Ute, Shoshone, Crow and Eastern Dakota. The Curator spent some time among the Northern Blackfoot and the Teton-Dakota. A systematic review of this problem for the whole Plains area is now in progress and will form the substance of a future publication. G. L. Wilson
70 Report of the President
European blood among these Eskimo. This is an interesting somatological discovery. We say traces of European blood
because that seems the most reasonable explanation of the —
observed facts.
Among the many minor investigations comanebed in the
Museum may be mentioned a study of the composition of copper implements from the Andean region of South America by W. A. Wissler. Chemical analysis made it clear that the production of bronze was understood by the ancient Peruvians. A full report of this work will be published.
PuBLICATIONS.—The results of research by members of the scientific staff are issued in a special series, the Anthropo- logical Papers of the American Museum of Natural Fitstory.
Several papers were issued in the regular series, giving the results of field work among the Crow, Blackfoot, Dakota and
Chipewyan tribes conducted by Doctors Wissler, Goddard and
Lowie. Frank E. Lutz of the Department of Invertebrate Zodlogy reported some observations on the Patomana Indians of British Guiana. A special series of handbooks was begun, and the first number, on the Indians of the Plains, by Dr. Clark Wissler, was issued.
A special series of publications referring to the work of the Jesup North Pacific Expedition is still being issued but con- tains the work of former members of that expedition, none of whom are now onthe Museum’s staff. The editorial responsi-
bility for this work is borne by Professor Boas of Columbia —
University. No volumes were issued during the year, but two papers are now in press.
EXHIBITION HaLis.—As museum work is practically con- tinuous, a report for the year is simply a cross-section of many tasks begun during the previous year and extending over even into the following year. This is especially true of exhibition. At the beginning of the calendar: year a small portion of the Plains Indians Hall was in place and only a few cases in the Woodlands Hall. As these two halls are now fairly well worked out, all the space being occupied by the various tribes in their proper sequence and position, it may be said that the year just
Report of the President 71
closed can be credited with the completion of this important installation. As these halls now stand, the visitor should be able to get a comprehensive view of the culture of the principal tribes, in geographical sequence from the Atlantic Ocean to the deserts of the Southwest. A great deal of work remains to be done on the special tribal groups in these halls, but the installation is inthe main complete. In the North Pacific Hall some refinements of installation were made, especially in the Tlingit and Haida sections. Mr. Operti was detailed from the Department of Preparation to finish some of the figures in the canoe group. As the group now stands the figures are all complete, though we still need some figures to give the group a proper balance. Mr. Taylor has nearly completed two additional wall panels for the ceremonial side of this hall. A small collection of Eskimo material from Coronation Gulf, brought back by Mr. Stefansson, has been installed in the Eskimo alcove. In the South Sea Islands Hall Dr. Lowie revised and refined the New Guinea collection which is now fairly complete. Mr. Operti was detailed to complete the Tahitian groups begun by Mr. Neandross, all three of which are now in place. In the South American Hall Mr. Mead
made a special installation of Peruvian cloth. This is a fairly
successful arrangement made especially effective by the use of proper backgrounds and a carefully balanced arrangement of the various textiles. The case as a whole adds very much to the attractiveness and interest of that hall, and has been used frequently by students of design during the calendar year.
The Director designed and furnished new cases for the tower of the Chinese Hall, space to be given over entirely to Chinese archeology. Here it is planned to install the pottery and bronze collections in suitable form. One case is already in, but the others await shelves and brackets.
Dr. MacCurdy of Yale University continued the installation of European archeological material begun during the preced- ing year. This has progressed so far that we have in place a type series from the specimens owned by the Museum. Mr. Operti has just completed a series of mural panels for the walls of this room, representing typical examples of cave paintings.
72 Report of the President
In connection with the installation work considerable label copy has been prepared, especially for the Woodlands Hall, the European exhibit, the South Sea Islands Hall and the South American Hall. A small portion has been printed and put in place, but the greater part still remains in the hands of the printer. The exhibits have been further enlivened by the use of photographs illustrating the relation of the various specimens to the culture and tribe concerned.
STORAGE.—The proper arrangement and classification of collections not on exhibition must always be an important part of the Museum’s work. During the year there have been a great many calls from persons interested in the rather inten- sive study of various subjects requiring their admission to the storage collections. On the whole, we have been able to meet their requirements satisfactorily. Nevertheless, there is need of further refinement and elaboration of our storage system. During the year, however, considerable advance was made. A large closet heretofore unused was fitted with side shelves and a traveling ladder, and in it was arranged in proper classi- fication our large series of face casts from various parts of the world. A special room for the arrangement and storage of crania and other skeletal material was completed during the year, and half of the room filled. The other half awaits proper trays for installation. This room will hold about all the crania now possessed by the Museum. The other skeletal material, however, must be arranged in cabinets in the hall adjoining this room. This is a very great improvement over the former arrangement, and places the material in such shape that it is readily accessible to students. On the attic floor there are under construction sixteen new fireproof storage vaults. One of these has been completed and filled with material as a test. On the whole, they are very much more satisfactory than the rooms previously constructed.

to their full capacity in the preparation of skeletons received by the various departments of the Museum. Messrs. Johnstone and Cohn have been occupied entirely with the large material, including the osteological preparation of the California Gray Whale and the Elephant Seal. Again the time of Mr. Elwyn has been wholly occupied in completing work which has been requisitioned by the Departments of Mammalogy and Ornith- ology, and Ichthyology and Herpetology. Notwithstanding that this work is important and has been skilfully done, it is unfortunate that no time has been left for the regular work of the Department of Anatomy and Physiology. The total preparations of all kinds, large and small, register 25 skeletons and 564 skulls; also 11 skeletons and 13 skulls have been mounted for exhibition purposes.
Through the courtesy of Bashford Dean, an African lungfish was placed at the disposal of the Curator for experi- ments on the mechanism of respiration. It is well known that this interesting animal uses both its gills and a true lung inthe process of. respiration, but the method by which this is carried on and what proportion of the function is maintained by the gills and what by the lung has never been demonstrated. While the experiments at the present writing are far from com- plete they are suggesting interesting problems in a very com- plicated process.
PUBLIC HEALTH CHARLES-EDWARD AMORY WINSLOW, Curator
DEPARTMENT OF PuBLIC HEALTH.—A tentative plan has been outlined for an ideal future development of the Depart- ment of Public Health so that its exhibition halls may present a fairly comprehensive picture of the life of man as an animal, his place in the general scheme of natural history, his relation to his geographical and meteorological surroundings, the para- sites which cause his diseases, and the animals and plants which serve him for food and clothing. The plan as outlined, giving a survey of the cycle of human life, its dangers and its safeguards, complete enough to satisfy the curiosity of the
74 Report of the President
ordinary man and to teach him what he needs to know in order to keep sound and well, is an extensive one, including twenty-five different sections. It cannot be realized in the near future and may perhaps never be realized in its entirety, but it gives definiteness and purpose to the immediate plans of the department to see them in relation to this larger plan. One section dealing with the disposal of city wastes was practically finished in 1911. During the first half of 1912 another section was essentially completed, dealing with water- supply, its sources and relation to the rainfall, the composition of water, the micro-organisms of water, the dangers from pol- luted water and the methods used for making water-supplies safe. A series of models and preserved colonies of bacteria
was also finished during the spring. Through the generosity |
of Felix M. Warburg it was made possible to send all this material to Washington for the exhibition held in connection with the Fifteenth International Congress on Hygiene and Demography. It is gratifying to note that, in each of the two sections of the Congress in which the Museum exhibited, it received the highest honor, a Diploma of Superior Merit. On returning from Washington the material was installed in the West Corridor on the third floor, where the department has for the first time a chance to display its exhibits in permanent form. During the present year, as before, the preparation and installation of exhibition material has been in the immediate charge of John H. O'Neill.
The next step in the development of the exhibit is the
preparation of a series of models and specimens illustrating
the insect-borne diseases in which man and the microbe and the intermediate insect host are knit together in complex relationship. As one of the central features of this exhibit, work has gone forward during the whole summer and fall in the Department of Preparation upon a giant model of the common house fly, which promises to rival the mosquitoes in the Darwin Hall in interest and beauty. A striking model of a corner of a rat-infested house in San Francisco, illustrating the part played by these rodents in the spread of plague, has been loaned to the Museum by the United States Bureau of Public Health Service, and is being copied; and a number of
a i
Report of the President 75
other minor exhibits are being prepared, dealing with the general subject of insects and disease.
The museum of living bacteria, under the immediate charge of Mr. Kligler, continues to grow in size and particularly in its widening usefulness to the college and research laboratories of the United States and Canada. On December 1, the collection numbered 578 different strains, representing 374 named types. In the somewhat less than two years since the organization of the laboratory, 1,700 subcultures have been sent out free of charge to 122 different institutions. The opportunity which this collection affords to investigators to obtain promptly authentic type specimens for comparative study has been warmly appreciated, and brings frequent letters expressing the gratitude of the bacteriologists of our leading universities for this unique public service rendered by the Museum. A printed list of the cultures has been pre- pared, which will further increase the usefulness of the collection.
The department has continued its codperation with the Department of Public Education and has prepared a set of bacterial cultures and vials containing specimens of the vari-
ous stages of the fly and the mosquito, to be used as traveling
collections in the schools, with a considerable series of photo- graphs and diagrams for albums, dealing with the bacteria and with insect-borne disease.
Two contributions were published from the Department during the year, one by the Curator, on ‘‘ The Classification of the Streptococci by their Action upon Carbohydrates and Related Organic Media,” and one by the Curator and Mr. Kligler on ‘‘A Quantitative Study of the Bacteria in City Dust with Special Reference to Intestinal and Buccal Forms.”’ Mr. Kligler has completed two other pieces of work, a study of the nitrate-reducing power of bacteria and a systematic revision of the Coccaceez in the Museum collection. The Curator spent a part of August and September in Minneapolis where he was called in collaboration with Dr. Hermann M. Biggs of the New York City Department of Health to make a study of the city health department and prepare a plan for its reorganization.
76 Report of the President
WOODS AND FORESTRY MARY CYNTHIA DICKERSON, Curator
DEPARTMENT OF Woops AND ForRESTRY.—One of the most ~ notable additions to the Forestry Hall during the year 1912 was a bronze bas-relief of Morris Ketchum Jesup as an expres- sion of the admiration felt for him by the late John J. Clancy. The panel was executed by James E. Fraser and represents Mr. Jesup walking in contemplative mood in the woods. It is wholly in the spirit of the plans for making this hall a fitting educational memorial to the donor of the world’s greatest col- lection of the trees of North America.
The work of removing the sequoia and redwood tree sec- tions from the Darwin Hall to the Forestry Hall was begun at the close of 1911 and extended through the first months of 1912. The transfer of the redwood was the simple matter of | rolling the two-ton section on cylinders into the new place; ~ moving the nine-ton sequoia, which was too high to pass under the archway between the two halls, entailed the labor of removing and later replacing the top part of the trunk. After the transfer all cracks were filled and the trees were faced off with new surfaces, so that they not only have new beauty but also are in condition to stand for many years.
The rearrangement of trees in the hall has continued until so near completion that a few weeks will see that part of the work done and the whole collection again open to exhibition. This rearrangement puts the collection into shape so that any North American tree can be readily located in the hall and its relations quickly seen to other members of a tree family and in regard to questions of market value and geographical dis- tribution. In connection with each family, labeled hand samples of the commercial woods have been placed outside the case in brackets in front of their respective trees, where they can be freely examined by visitors. Some one hundred descriptive labels have been written, including those for the sequoias, the pines, hemlocks, spruces and oaks. These labels give the latest knowledge of the trees and their economic value.
The following list gives some of the leaf, flower and fruit wax models constructed during the year: From Wisconsin,

wild crab apple (Pyrus coronaria) ; from Arizona, ash (fraxinus velutina), poplar (Populus fremontit) and cholla (Opuntia spinosior); and of local distribution, red gum (Liguidambar styracifiua), flowering dogwood (Cornus florida), dwarf sumach (Rhus copallina) and pear haw (Crategus tomentosa). Much experimenting has been done along the line of preservation of sprays of pines and other conifers, with the result that some valuable and attractive exhibits of these trees are in progress. The department expresses much gratitude to the New York Botanical Garden for the many courtesies extended in the way of material for this work.
Among other exhibits for the hall, work is in progress on a relief map to show forest areas of North America, and plans are made for a model to demonstrate the disastrous results of the deforestation of watersheds with the resultant floods and erosion. Also designs are under consideration for a mural painting across the east end of the hall and plans for large colored transparencies for the windows are in hand and the work started.
Much work has been done in filing and cataloging. The correspondence of the department from 1882 to date has been fully gone over; also the new locations of specimens in the Forestry Hall have been entered in department and reference catalogs.
As usual much information has been given to teachers, lumber concerns and architects regarding identification of woods. This work is at present in the hands of Herman de Fremery, trained in forestry at Vale and with practical field experience, appointed as temporary assistant in the department in October.
In addition to the departmental work, the editorship of the American Museum Journal and Gutde Leaflets has been carried.
THE LIBRARY
RALPH W. Tower, Curator
DEPARTMENT OF BoOKs AND PuBLICATIONS.—The Library has had an eventful year. Many valuable and important books have been added to the collection by gift, purchase and

78 Report of the President
exchange. Especially noteworthy has been the acquisition of 185 volumes relating to exploration and discovery in the far North; many of these works complete broken sets already represented on our shelves, while others are rare and for the most part out of print. In view of the prominent place the American Museum of Natural History has occupied in northern exploration, the expansion of this part of the Library is not inappropriate. Another collection of similar size and especially
rich in east coast Mollusca has been added to our equipment,
an accession both necessary and important.
During another year the Library has enjoyed the interest and benefaction of Anson W. Hard, who has again found it possible to present some of those rare and classic treatises much needed by scientist or naturalist. Among these are the following interesting and important works: Monograph of the Coraciide or Family of Rollers by H. E. Dresser; Sammlung exotischer Schmetterlinge, 1806-1837, by J. Hiibner an ex- tremely rare and highly prized set in three volumes and five supplements, together with a manuscript index consummated by the former owner, the eminent late Dr. Staudinger; Ztudes ad’ Entomologie, 1876-1902, and Etudes de Lépidopttrologie, 1904- 1gi1, by Charles Oberthiir; 2xtomologie ou Histoire Naturelle des Insectes, 1789-1808, by M. Olivier; a complete set of Palaontographia Italia, sixteen volumes; Zhe Birds of Tunisia by J. I. S. Whitaker. The acknowledgment and appreciation of the Library and its many patrons are again extended to the donor. The Library is also indebted to many other individuals and institutions for interesting and important gifts. J. Pierpont Morgan has presented a manuscript copy of Descriptions of New Species of Mauritian Fishes written by Richard Bliss, Jr., in 1875; this work is of special interest since it serves in part as letter press for the volumes of unpublished drawings which were received from the same donor in 1905. Cleveland H. Dodge has continued his interest by supplying the publications of The Carnegie Institution.

Report of the President 79
-books have been used by the British Museum of Natural His-
tory, Hamburgisches Kolonialinstitut, the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences, Columbia University, Harvard Uni- versity, Yale University, Trinity College, Grosvenor Public Library of Buffalo, and the Department of Agriculture at Washington, D. C., as weil as by institutions in the South and West. In each case the books were requested because they were not in the possession of the home institution, and there- fore these loans accomplish a very valuable scientific service. It is a great satisfaction to be able to administer a department in an institution whose liberality permits a wise diffusion of knowledge by maintaining a special library of exceptional completeness.
EQuIPMENT.—During the year just past extensive additions have been made to the equipment, new and unusally efficient lighting systems have been placed in the old stacks, the instal- lation of the new two-storied steel stack has been effected, the card catalog has been placed ina more accessible and con- venient series of cabinets, doorways have been so constructed that all the rooms are now directly connected, and periodical cases have been placed along the side walls of the Reading Room, where are to be found the more important books of reference and the current numbers of the most used scientific periodicals dealing with natural history. The disturbance caused by the many changes incidental to new construction has somewhat interfered with the efficiency of library work, yet with the transfer of special sections to more commodious quarters it is assured that usefulness and convenience will be greatly enhanced.
PuBLIC READING Room.—In the early part of the year a general reading room was opened on the second floor. A small collection of popular and non-technical books relating to natural history was so arranged that the public could freely use them. It was soon found necessary, however, to enlarge the space and place an assistant in attendance; although the venture was undertaken as an experiment, it has undoubtedly proved its educational value.
80 Report of the President
Tue Ossorn Lisrary.—The Osborn Library of Vertebrate Paleontology contains 1,524 volumes and 4,o0o0 pamphlets. In planning for its further development, it is intended to place in this hbrary all the works relating to vertebrate paleontology and thus make it a distinct unit in itself.
On January first Miss Jannette Lucas was appointed an assistant in the department and was placed in charge of the Osborn Library. Much time has been given to taking an inventory and arranging the catalog, to introducing an acces- sion system and elaborating the bibliographic index. Not- - withstanding many impediments the work has progressed well and Miss Lucas is to be commended for her efforts and success.
PUBLICATIONS J. A. ALLEN, Editor
The current publications of the American Museum of Natural History consist of the Annual Report, the Bulletin, the Memoirs, the Monographs, the Anthropological Papers and the American Museum Journal.
The @ulletin is a strictly scientific publication in which are published the shorter articles embodying the results of the research work of the various departments of the Museum. The papers composing it are less voluminous and of more general interest than those which appear in the Memoirs and Monographs. The Bulletin was founded in 1881, and thirty-one volumes have been issued.
The Memoirs, like the Bulletin, are von scientific, but are devoted to special articles requiring larger illustrations and more exhaustive treatment. They have been published at irregular intervals since 1893. Ten complete volumes and parts of five others have been issued. During the present year the first series of the AZemoirs has been closed and a second series opened, of which Parts 1-3 of Volume I have been published and a fourth part is in press.
The Monographs, intermediate in size between the Bulletin (in octavo) and the Memoirs (in quarto), of which the first has been printed during the year, will include technical papers relating to single subjects which require elaborate treatment.
Report of the President 81
The Anthropological Papers are similar in character to the Bulletin, but are devoted exclusively to the results of field work and other research conducted by the anthropological staff of the Museum. The publication of these papers was commenced in 1907, twelve volumes having been issued up to the present time.
The American Museum Journal is a popular record of the progress of the Museum, and was first published in r1goo. Twelve volumes have been issued.
In addition to the above, two series of occasional publica- tions are issued, known as Guide Leaflets and Handbooks. The Leaflets formerly appeared as supplements to the Journal, but are now separate publications. Thirty-five Leaflets have been issued. The first number of the Handbook series was issued during the year, No. 2 is in press, and Nos. 3 and 4 have been authorized.
The expedition to the Gulf of California in the U. S. S. ‘‘Albatross,” under Charles H. Townsend, was due to the generosity of Arthur Curtiss James and the co6dperation of the United States Bureau of Fisheries with the American Museum of Natural History.
The following reports have been issued:
1. ‘‘ The Northern Elephant Seal,” by Charles H. Townsend.
Published by the New York Zodlogical Society, Ig11, in Loblogica.
2. ‘‘Mammals Collected in Lower California,” by Charles H. Townsend. Published by the American Museum of Natural History, 1912, in the Bulletin.
The following reports are in preparation: 1. ‘‘ The Narrative of the Expedition,” by Charles H. Townsend. To be published by the United States Bureau of Fisheries. 2, ‘‘ The Collection of Echinoderms,” by Hubert L. Clark.
| 3. ‘‘ The Fishes of the Gulf of California,” by Charles H. Townsend and Raymond C,. Osburn.
4. ‘‘The Reptiles,” by Charles H. Townsend and Miss Mary C. Dickerson.
5. ‘‘ The Birds,” by Charles H. Townsend.
6. ‘‘ The Invertebrates other than Echinoderms.” Yet to be assigned for study and report.
7. ‘‘A Report on the Deep Sea Fishes,” by Charles H. Townsend.

Report of the President 85
III. MEMBERSHIP
GEORGE H. SHERWOOD, Assistant Secretary
The confidence of the public in the Museum as an institu- ‘tion that is doing an important work in science and education is evidenced by the rapidly increasing number of Members enrolling in its support. There are now more than 3,200 who are on this list, and the total dues received constitute an item of considerable incomé. Important as this financial assistance is, however, Members may render even greater service by inter- esting others in the growth and development of the Museum. Members are especially invited to nominate their friends for election, and are assured that their assistance in increasing the membership will be greatly appreciated.

Many unquestionably join the institution through public spirit, but the privileges which are extended to Members are really of great advantage. Two courses of lectures are ar- ranged during the year primarily for Members; a Members’ Room is provided for their comfort; on request, instructors who will explain the meaning of the exhibits are available; the Museum Journal, a magazine which gives a popular account of the activities of the Museum, is sent free to all Members. Full information regarding membership will be furnished by the Secretary on request.
Special attention has been given to the Lectures for Mem- bers. Every effort has been made in these lectures to present interesting and instructive subjects connected with the ex- ploration and other work of the Museum, and of science in general. The spring course of 1912 was so well attended that the Trustees found it necessary to reduce from four to two the number of tickets allotted to each Member.
36 Report of the President
The Members’ Room, which was opened in 1911, has been.
well patronized. The record shows that it was utilized in 1912 by more than 1,000 Members and their friends. The room is on the third floor, near the elevator. It is equipped with lounging chairs, and reading and correspondence tables, and Members will find it a desirable meeting place. |
It is gratifying to report that 1912 witnessed an unprece- dented increase in membership, 757 new names having been
enrolled. This number represents an increase of nearly | 30 per cent. in the total membership, and is greater by 100 -
per cent. than the number secured in any previous year. The fees from new members alone have added $6,630 to current income, and $12,100 to the Permanent Endowment. The total receipts from all Members, applied to current income, are $25,265.
This growth is primarily due to the systematic efforts that have been made to secure new members. In this campaign 27,591 invitations have been sent out, and, while the clerical work involved is enormous, the immediate financial return is more than 300 per cent. on the money expended.
While 757 new names have been added to the membership
list, there has been a loss through death and resignation of
151; thus the net gain for the year is 606. On December 31, 1912, the total membership was 3,258, divided into classes, as follows:

It is with regret that we record the decease of George Borup, Assistant Curator of Geology, who lost his life through drowning on April 28. The following Resolution was adopted by the Faculty of the Museum, at a meeting held on May 13, EOI?
The Scientific Staff of the American Museum of Natural History desires to record its sense of loss occasioned by the death of George Borup, Assistant Curator of Geology and leader of the proposed Crocker Land Expedition. Keen in mind and in observational faculties, enthusiastic and optimistic, loyal to his friends and the institutions with which he was connected, as well as to his ideals, Mr. Borup was a natural leader of men and seemed by equipment, training and character to have a brilliant and useful career before him. Furthermore, he was so thoroughly prepared by nature and by training in the class room and in the field for exploratory work along geographical and geological lines that his death is a distinct loss to the Museum, to science and
_ to the world at large.
go feeport of the President
FINANCES, MAINTENANCE, ENDOWMENT CHARLES LANIER, Zveasurer
The method of conducting the finances of the Museum introduced in 1911 on recommendation of the Special Com- mittee has proved satisfactory, although it involves consider- ably more clerical work than formerly. The United States Trust Company of New York was reappointed Assistant Treas- urer and has been the depository of all moneys received by the Museum, excepting the funds and securities of the Per- manent Endowment, which continue in the custody of J. P. Morgan & Co. |
The affairs of the Treasurer's Office at the Museum have been under the immediate direction of the Bursar, Frederick H. Smyth, who has performed his duties with faithfulness and marked efficiency.
The principal financial transactions of the Museum have been recorded in the usual four separate accounts, namely: the City Maintenance Account, the General Account, the Special Funds Account and the Endowment and Investment Account. In order, however, to conform to the ruling of the Trustees, that all moneys received by the Museum should be deposited with the Assistant Treasurer, namely, the United States Trust Company of New York, it has been found necessary to open two new accounts: the Building Account, in which are carried all Corporate Stock moneys received from the City, and the Incidental Account, established to care for all moneys not a part of the Museum’s income, and in the handling of which the Museum acts merely as agent.
Finally, there is the Bursar’s Account, which is merely a temporary working fund with a capital of $7,500, drawn from the General Account. Since all expenditures in this account generally are immediately reimbursed from some other account, it is not necessary to record the details of the transactions.
It was found desirable to open a separate account for the receipts and disbursements of the Crocker Land Expedition, and this appears on our books as the Crocker Land Expedition Fund Account.
Report of the President gI
The details of the receipts and disbursements will be found in the Treasurer’s Report, pages 95 to 117 inclusive.
Semiannually all books and vouchers of the various ac- counts have been duly examined and certified by the Audit Company of New York.
BUDGET OF 1912.—On February 5, 1912, the Board voted $392,209.53 as the total Budget of 1912, involving a prospec- tive deficiency of $55,556.13, to be made up by contributions from Trustees and Members. Through economic administra- tion of all the departments, the actual expenditures were $12,304.65 less than the amount voted. Through the large increase in membership, the receipts were $8,614.88 greater than estimated in the Budget. These credits, amounting to $20,919.53, were partly offset, however, by $14,213.40 in supplementary appropriations for emergency and other matters voted by the Executive Committee. The net amount of the actual deficiency was, therefore, $48,850, which was entirely met by individual subscriptions of members of the Board. This annual deficiency, which cannot grow less, should be relieved by an increased endowment, so that our income will cover our normal annual charges.
City MAINTENANCE ACCOUNT.—The moneys appropriated by the City for the maintenance of the Museum are received and disbursed in this account. In 1912 this appropriation was $195,000 for all purposes, a sum $5,243 greater than in the preceding year. The actual cost of maintenance, however, was $282,000, and, as has been so often necessary, the Trus- tees have met the deficit out of their own funds, expending $87,000 On maintenance items which legally could have been charged to the City, had the appropriation been large enough. In disbursing the money appropriated by the City the Trustees have been guided by the spirit rather than by the letter of the contract between the Museum and the City, and have charged to their own funds expenditures which legally the City might assume. The diversion of Trustees’ money to these purposes is to be regretted, since it means the withdrawal of such sums from the amount available for the purchase of new collections.
92 Report of the President
TRUSTEES’ GENERAL ACCoUNT.—The systematic develop- ment of both the scientific and educational work of the Museum is wholly dependent upon the funds of the General Account. The appropriation of the City is intended to provide for the care of the building. ‘The Trustees’ General Account must provide the specimens and the exhibits to go in the build- ing. The total net receipts in this account for the year are $187,150.68, a sum $23,137.81 greater than the income of tg11, and the largest amount that has ever been available. The generous personal contributions of the Trustees, amount- ing to $48,850, in addition to their gifts for special purposes, - are conspicuous in causing this increase. The principal items of income are as follows: .
Interest on General Endowment Fund............ $57,247 75 , Interest, on | Morris) Ke tesup aang i041. cee Seta 50,991 97 , : Annual and, Sustaining Members... 4.:)00640266 68 25,265 oo Personal Contributions of TrusteeS............+.+. 48,850 00
TRUSTEES’ SPECIAL Funps AccounT.—When a Patron desig- nates a particular purpose for which his contribution is made, the money is deposited in the Special Funds Account. In such case his gift becomes a special fund, or a part of a special fund if there are other contributors. In other words, the Special Funds Account is made up of several independent special funds, each of which the Treasurer treats as if it were a separate account. The income is a fluctuating amount, since it is dependent on the interest of patrons in special collections or objects. It is gratifying to report that the receipts have exceeded those of any previous year and amount to the splen- did total of $78,427.80.
We wish to express our heartiest thanks to the many Mem- bers and other friends whose generosity has enabled us to secure valuable collections and prosecute many researches.
TRUSTEES PERMANENT ENDOWMENT AccouNT.— The growth of the permanent endowment has not kept pace with the development of the collections and the scientific work of the institution. The year 1912 witnessed an increase of $17,100, the items of which are $5,000 generously subscribed — by Anna B. Bliss, and $12,100 (fees of Patrons, Fellows and
Report of the President 93
Life Members). For the first time receipts from Life Members have been applied to the endowment instead of to current income. The wisdom of this change is apparent, since Life Membership fees during the year totaled $9,100, adding this amount to the endowment. Our endowment was further in- creased by $1,250 through the action of the American Surety Company in declaring an extra dividend of 100 per cent. and paying this in stock. |
If the normal growth of the Museum is to continue, im- mediate steps must be taken to increase the endowment. The plan which is proposed is to invite such of the Trustees as may desire to do so to become Benefactors, by adding to the endowment the difference between the total amounts they have contributed to various purposes and $50,000, the Bene- factors’ fee; second, to invite twenty contributors of $50,000 each from various Members and friends of the Museum, in order to add $1,000,000 to the Endowment Fund. This will meet the immediate annual demands of our Budget, and en- able the Trustees and Members to devote their gifts to special purposes.
Respectfully submitted,
HENRY FAIRFIELD OSBORN February 3, 1913 President

It cannot be used for the purchase of speci- mens or for the expenses of exploring and collecting expeditions. The deficiency in mazn- tenance for 1912, amounting to $87,co0, has been met from the Trustees’ General Fund.
