Mr.  E.  L.  McNair,  topographer,  was  engaged  during  the  first  half 
of  the  field  season  in  extending  triangulation  over  the  southern  por- 
tion of  the  Adirondacks  and  during  the  remainder  of  the  season  over 
the  northwestern  part  of  the  same  region .  He  established  and  marked 
the  positions  of  35  stations,  which  control  9  15-minute  quadrangles, 
covering  portions  of  Fulton,  Hamilton,  St.  Lawrence,  Franklin,  Sar- 
atoga, and  Warren  counties.  He  also  established  a  meridian  line  at 
Johnstown.

XORTII  CAROLINA. 
PRIMARY  TRAVERSE. 

The  following  positions  for  the  control  of  ten  15-minnte  quadrangles 
in  the  east-central  portion  of  the  State  were  obtained  from  primary 
traverse  in  March  and  April,  1902,  by  Mr.  Sledge  Tatum,  topographer. 

The  line  begins  at  the  main  line  crossing,  South  Rockymount, 
located  by  Mr.  Oscar  Jones  in  1900,  and  runs  westward  along  the 
Atlantic  Coast  Line  Railroad  to  Nashville;  thence  along  highways  to 
Forestville;  thence  along  the  Seaboard  Air  Line  Railway  to  Raleigh; 
thence  along  the  Southern  Railway  to  Goldsboro  and  connected  with 
the  south  meridian  stone.  A  spin*  line  follows  the  Atlantic  Coast 
Line  Railroad  from  Goldsboro  southward  to  Dudley.  A  line  approx- 
imately on  the  parallel  of  35°  30'  follows  the  highways  between 
Princeton  and  Ayden,  and  another  line  follows  the  highways  from 
Conetoe  via  Wilson  to  Raleigh.

PRIMARY  TRAVERSE. 

During  the  month  of  October,  1901,  Mr.  Sledge  Tatum,  topogra- 
pher, controlled,  by  means  of  140  miles  of  primary  traverse,  four 
quadrangles  in  the  north-central  portion  of  the  State,  in  Lorain, 
Huron,  Medina,  Richland,  Ashland,  and  Wayne  counties. 

The  traverse  is  based  upon  Camden  and  Townsend  triangulation 
stations  of  the  United  States  lake  survey  and  on  points  near  Mill- 
brook  and  Burbank,  established  in  1900  from  primary  traverse  by 
Mr.  E.  L.  McNair.

CENTRAL  SECTION  OF  TOPOGRAPHY. 

OHIO. 


PRIMARY  TRAVERSE. 

Thirty  15-minute  quadrangles,  covering  portions  of  18  counties  in 
the  northwestern  portion  of  the  State,  were  controlled  by  160  miles 
of  primary  traverse  along  railways  by  Mr.  George  T.  Hawkins,  topog- 
rapher, supplemented  by  700  miles  of  traverse  run  by  Mr.  J.  R. 
Ellis  along  highways,  following  meridians  and  parallels  as  closely  as 
practicable. 

The  following  geographic  positions  were  determined  from  primary 
traverse  in  1901  by  Mr.  George  T.  Hawkins,  topographer. 

The  line  starts  from  a  point  in  the  western  part  of  the  city  of  Toledo 
and  follows  the  Lake  Shore  Railway  to  Edgerton,  thence  southwest 
via  highways  to  the  Indiana- Ohio  State  line,  thence  south  along  the 
State  line  to  the  Findlay,  Fori  Wayne  and  Western  Railway,  thence 
along  that  railway  to  Findlay,  where  it  was  connected  with  a  line  run 
in  1900.

PRIMARY  TRAVERSE. 


The  following  geographic  positions  were  determined  by  primary 
traverse  by  Mr.  George  T.  Hawkins,  topographer,  in  August,  1901. 

The  line  starts  from  an  adjusted  position  established  by  primary 
traverse  in  1899  near  Evansville,  and  follows  the  Evansville  and  Terre 
Haute  Railroad  to  Vincennes,  where  it  was  tied  to  the  Coast  and  Geo- 
detic Survey  astronomic  pier.  From  a  point  on  this  line  at  Princeton, 
Ind.,  a  line  was  run  along  the  Air  Line  Railroad  to  Mount  Carmel, 
111.,  thence  by  Louisville  and  Nashville  Railroad  to  Evansville,  Ind., 
and  tied  to  original  point.

PRIMARY   TRAVERSE. 


The  following  geographic  positions  were  determined  by  primary 
traverse  in  1901  by  Mr.  George  T.  Hawkins,  topographer.  The  line 
starts  from  Postville  station  (established  by  primary  traverse  in  1899- 
1900  from  triangulation  by  Mississippi  River  Commission)  and  follows 
the  Chicago,  Milwaukee  and  St.  Paul  Railway  to  county  line  2  miles 
east  of  Cresco,  thence  north  on  highways  to  the  Iowa-Minnesota  State 
line,  thence  east  to  a  church.  A  spur  line  starts  from  Calmar  and 
follows  the  Dakota  Division  of  same  railway  to  Jackson  Junction.

This  work  depends  on  a  base  line  4.6  miles  in  length,  measured 
westward  along  the  railroad  tangent,  beginning  2£  miles  west  of  Fort 
Steele.  The  line  was  prepared  in  the  usual  manner  by  nailing  boards 
and  zinc  strips  to  the  cross-ties.  Three  complete  measurements  were 
made  with  standard  300-foot  tape  No.  1,  temperatures  being  taken 
by  two  Standard  thermometers  at  each  tape  length. 

The  length  of  base  reduced  to  sea  level  is  24,181.420  feet. 

Logarithm  of  length  in  meters =3. 8674977. 

Positions  depend  upon  the  latitude  and  longitude  pier  of  the 
Wheeler  survey,  established  in  1872,  corrected  for  the  revised  longi- 
tude of  Salt  Lake,  from  which  it  was  originally  determined.  The 
astronomic  point  was  occupied  as  an  azimuth  station  on  two  nights, 
and  a  check  azimuth  was  observed  near  milepost  145  on  the  Colorado- 
Wyoming  State  line.  During  the  progress  of  this  work  12  primary 
and  4  secondary  stations  were  occupied,  and  numerous  high  peaks 
were  located  by  intersections,  controlling  three  30-minute  quadrangles 
in  Wyoming  and  one  in  Colorado. 

Angles  were  measured  and  azimuths  were  observed  with  an  8 -inch 
micrometer  theodolite  by  Mr.  Frank  Tweedy,  topographer,  who  also 
prepared  and  measured  the  base  line.

TRIANGULATION  STATIONS. 

Positions  in  northwestern  Montana,  published  herewith,  result  from 
the  field  work  of  Messrs.  S.  S.  Gannett,  A.  H.  Thompson,  H.  L.  Bald- 
win, jr.,  and  R.  II.  Chapman,  in  the  years  1897  to  1901,  inclusive. 
They  are  based  upon  a  geodetic  latitude  and  longitude  found  by 
taking  the  mean  of  the  astronomic  positions,  as  determined  at  Hamil- 
ton and  Helena  stations,  which  were  connected  through  a  series  of 
quadrilaterals. 

Seven  positions  of  stations  in  the  expansion  of  the  Hamilton  base, 
published  in  the  nineteenth  annual  report,  are  now  republished  with 
corrected  values. 

The  Helena  astronomic  station  is  a  primary  astronomic  station  of 
the  United  States  Coast  and  Geodetic  Survey,  situated  near  the 
United  States  assay  office  at  Helena,  and  connected  by  measurements 
with  the  court-house  spire. 

The  observed  latitude  of  the  pier  is  46°  35'  18.3". 

The  observed  longitude  of  the  pier  is  112°  02'  11.84". 

The  corresponding  position  of  the  court-house  spire  is,  latitude 
46°  35'  17.5";  longitude  112°  02'  00.94". 

To  obtain  the  geodetic  positions  adopted,  subtract  from  above  1.57" 
for  latitude,  and  2.13"  for  longitude. 

The  Helena  base  (Lewis  and  Clarke  County)  was  measured  twice 
at  night  with  the  300-foot  standard  steel  tape,  along  the  roadbed  of 
the  Northern  Pacific  Railroad  near  Helena,  by  Mr.  R.  H.  Chapman, 
topographer,  in  1897.  The  resulting  length,  when  reduced  to  sea  level 
and  corrected  for  temperature  and  inclination,  is  6,511.77  meters. 

The  Hamilton  astronomic  station  is  situated  on  the  eastern  side  of 
the  railroad  right  of  way,  50  feet  east  of  the  eastern  rail  of  track,  80 
feet  northeast  of  the  station  at  Hamilton,  Ravalli  County.  The 
quarter  corner  between  sees.  25  and  30,  Rs.  20  and  21  W.,  T.  6  N.,  is 
distant  339  feet,  true  bearing  N.  39°  13'  W. 

Observations  for  time  were  made  on  three  nights  in  July,  1897. 
Telegraphic  comparisons  of  time  were  made  with  the  Washington 
Observatory,  St.  Louis,  on  the  same  nights.  Prof.  II.  S.  Pritchett 
was  the  observer  at  the  Washington  Observatory  and  Mr.  S.  S. 
Gannett  at  the  Hamilton  station. 

The  resulting  observed  longitude  for  the  Hamilton  station  is  114° 
09'  09.40"  i  0.11".

MONTANA.

The  observed  latitude  from  56  sets  of  observations  is  46°  14'  53.91" 
±  0.11". 

To  obtain  the  geodetic  positions  adopted,  add  to  the  above  1.57" 
for  latitude  and  2.13"  for  longitude. 

A  meridian  mark  was  set  2,377  feet  south  of  pier  on  the  section 
line,  213.4  feet  east  of  corner  between  sees.  31,  36,  25,  and  30,  T.  ON., 
R.  20  W. 

The  Bitterroot  Base  was  measured  with  300-foot  steel  tape  along 
the  Hamilton  branch  of  the  Northern  Pacific  Railway. 

The  resulting  length,  when  reduced  to  sea  level  and  corrected  for 
temperature  and  inclination,  is  8,582.835  meters. 

Connection  was  made  with  post  No.  373  on  the  international  bound- 
ary and  with  a  station  of  the  Missouri  River  Commission  (see  Hilger 
station  below). 

Azimuths  were  obtained  by  observations  on  Polaris  near  elongation 
at  following  stations:  Hamilton  (astronomic  station),  Helena  West 
Base,  Monture,  Carey,  and  Durham. 


MONTURE,  DEER  LODGE  COUNTY. 

A  high,  sharp  peak  on  southern  end  of  an  approximately  north-and- 
south  ridge  between  two  streams  flowing  into  South  Fork  of  Flathead 
River.  The  westernmost  branch  of  Monture  Creek  heads  immedi- 
ately south  of  station.  Peak  is  about  12  miles  north  from  Wood  worth 
post-office  and  20  miles  northwest  of  Ovando  post-office.  The  best 
approach  is  from  Woodworth  via  trail  up  East  Fork  of  Shanley  (or 
Cottonwood)  Creek,  across  east-and-west  ridge  to  headwaters  of  Mon- 
ture Creek,  through  pass  southeast  of  station.  Animals  were  taken 
to  summit.     Good  camps  at  lakes  on  high  shelf  east  of  station. 

Station  mark:  An  aluminum  bolt  set  in  a  bowlder  weighing  several 
tons.

ROBERTSON,  TETON   COUNTY. 

On  the  eastern  end  of  Robertson  Mountain,  being  the  second  peak 
on  the  "comb"  counting  from  the  east.  Only  apparent  way  of 
reaching  it  is  to  climb  the  rock  slide  on  north  side  of  east  end  of

difficult  and  somewhat  dangerous  climb  on  account  of  loose  rock. 

Station  mark:  An  aluminum  bolt,  stamped  "U.  S.  G.  S.,"  set  in  solid 
ledge,  over  which  is  a  monument  of  loose  rock  9  feet  high.

Sierra  Forest  Reserve. 

Mr.  E.  T.  Perkins,  jr.,  topographer,  continued  the  belt  of  triangu- 
lation  of  the  previous  year  southward  along  the  high  Sierras  to  Teha- 
ehapi  Pass.  Besides  reoccupying  2  stations,  he  built  and  occupied 
11  new  stations,  some  of  which  were  formerly  located  by  the  Wheeler 
survey. 

This  work  was  further  extended  and  connected  with  that  in  south- 
ern California  by  Mr.  Urquhart  in  December,  1901. 

The  work  furnishes  control  for  six  30-niinute  quadrangles  in  Tulare 
and  Kern  counties. 

Positions  were  computed  from  the  south  from  the  line  Frazier-Liebre 
on  Yolo  standard  datum,  but  a  correction  of  -+-6.53"  \n  latitude  and 
—  3. GO"  in  longitude  was  applied  to  reduce  the  positions  published 
herewith  to  the  "U.  S.  Standard  "  of  the  Coast  and  Geodetic  Survey. 

BRECKINRIDGE,  KERN   COUNTY. 

The  station  is  at  the  eastern  end  of  Breckinridge  Mountain,  a 
heavily  timbered  plateau  south  of  the  Kern  River,  0  miles  west  of 
Havilah.  It  can  be  ascended  from  Rankins  Ranch  in  Walker  Basin 
b}^  following  the  main  ridge. 

Station  mark:  A  bronze  triangulation  tablet  cemented  in  the  top 
of  a  ledge  which  projects  10  or  12  feet  above  surface  of  ground,  sur- 
mounted by  a  cairn  5  feet  high.
