and Sugar Loaf stations of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey 

near Harpers Ferry, W. Va., but during the season of 1902 Mr. Gannett extended a belt of triangulation from Wray-Gebhardt stations 

in the transcontinental belt of United States-Coast and Geodetic Survey near Huntington, W. Va., up the Ohio River, and connected with 

previous work near Parkersburg. The discrepancy in latitude and 

longitude was distributed arbitrarily so as not to disturb figure adjustments, and has been applied so as to reduce all positions to the U. S. 

standard datum as derived from Wray-Gebhardt.

PRIMARY TRAVERSE.

Between November 15, 1902, and January 15, 1903, 154 miles of 

primary traverse were run by Mr. E. L. McNair, topographer, for the 

control of the Mannie sheet, embracing most of Wayne and a portion 

of Lawrence County. The line begins at Kelleys Landing, on the 

Tennessee River, a position determined by Mr. George T. Hawkins, 

topographer, in 1897, and runs south along country roads to the Alabama line; thence east near the State line to Iron City, Tenn., on the 

Louisville and Nashville Railway; theiice north over country roads 

to Napier. A spur was also run from Iron City to Tuscumbia, Ala., 

along the Louisville and Nashville Railway; thence east along the 

Southern Railway to Tanyard triangulation station, near Town Creek.

T.Ms control was supplemented in March, 1903, by a line 32 miles 

in length run by Mr. Sledge Tatuni, topographer, from a point near 

Abner post-office westward, through Waynesboro across the quadrangle.

TRIANGULATION STATIONS.

^Positions in eastern Ohio published herewith result from the field 

work of Messrs. W. T. Griswold in 1900, A. H. Thompson in 1901, and 

G. T. Hawkins and S. S. Gannett in 1902.

Previous to the latter date positions depended upon Maryland 

Heights and Sugar Loaf stations of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, near Harpers Ferry, W. Va., but during the season of 

1902 Mr. Gannett extended a belt of triangulation from Wray-Gebhardt 

stations in the transcontinental belt of United' States Coast and 

Geodetic Survey near Huntington, W. Va., up the Ohio River and 

connected with previous work near Parkersburg, W. Va.

The discrepancy in latitude and longitude was distributed arbitrarily so as not to disturb figure adjustments, and has been applied so 

as to reduce all positions to the U. S. standard datum as derived from 

Wray-Gebhardt.

_ PRIMARY TRAVERSE.

The following geographic positions were determined from primary 

traverse by Mr. J. R. Ellis in 1902 and 1903. The line between Vicksburg and Jackson was run and duplicated, giving a double value for
GANNET'J'.] MISSISSIPPI. 129

Jackson which was based on United States Mississippi River Commission triangulation station Trinity Church spire. This line follows the 

Alabama and Vicksbnrg Railway. A spur line was run northward 

from Jackson along the Yazoo and Mississippi \7"alley Railway to 

Pocahontas. A spur line was also run southward from Jackson following the Illinois Central Railway to the line between Hinds and 

Copiah counties. Another line was run eastward from Jackson along 

the Alabama and Vicksburg Railway to range line between Rs. 3 and 

4 E.

traverse run uy Mr. ,T. R. Ellis in 1902. The line starts from United 

States Coast and Geodetic Survey triangulation station Hughes and 

follows highways south and east to Bagnell, thence north along Missouri. Pacific Railway to a point near Olean, thence north and west 

along highways to United States Coast and Geodetic Survey triangulation station Highpoint. Positions are given on the U. S. Standard 

datum:

TRIANGULATION STATIONS.

In the fall of 1902 Mr. R. H. Chapman extended triangulation 

northward from stations Cleveland, Harrison, and Hogback west of 

Greeley, Colo., to stations County Road, Lindsey, and Quartzite, near 

Laramie, AVyo. Besides reoccupying these six. stations he rnonumented and occupied eleven new stations and located sixteen points 

by intersections. Positions are given on the U. S. standard datum 

as derived from Morrison-Table Mound stations in the transcontinental triangulation of the Coast and Geodetic Survey near Denver.

TRIANGULATION STATIONS.

During the fall and winter of 1002-3, Mr. R. B. Robinson extended 

a system of quadrilaterals down the valley of the Colorado River 

from the vicinity of Needles, Cal., to Yuma, Ariz., a lineal distance 

of 175 miles. Forty stations were occupied and 24 located by intersections. This work depends upon stations in the expansion of the 

secondary base of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey near 

Needles, and a check was obtained by connecting with stations Pilot 

and Azimuth of the United States and Mexican Boundary Survey 

Commission near Yuma. Positions are given on the United States 

standard datum as derived from the transcontinental belt of the 

Coast and Geodetic Survey through the secondary triangulation along 

the California-Nevada boundary line from Lake Tahoe to Needles. 

A few of the stations in the vicinity of Yuma were selected, built, and 

occupied by Mr. A. H. Sylvester, topographer, earlier in the season.

Arizona. 

CONE, MOHAVE COUNTY.

A sharp, rocky peak, well k-nown as "the Boundary Cone," about 

17 miles northeast of Needles, Cal. The road to Kingman via the 

Snow Ball mine passes by the base of the peak. To go to Cone from. 

Needles, take road to Snow Ball mine, past the Cone. Stop at the 

first big wash road crosses after passing the peak and go up the wash 

a short distance the best and perhaps the only way up. Horses can 

not be taken much farther than the wash. There are several springs 

within 2 or 3 miles of the station and plenty of water at Leland mine, 

about 3 miles a little west of north.

Station mark: A bronze trianguJation tablet wedged in solid rock, 

about 2 inches underground, under center of a cairn 7 feet high.

common name seems to be Laguna which it gets from a good-sized 

laguna lying just north of it. There is just barely room to set up a

MULE WASH, YUMA COUNTY, ARIZ.

On top of flat gravel mesa, on south side of mule wash and about 

4 miles from where sand wash joins the river. There is another big 

wash a little to south of station, which runs into river by station 36. 

Either of these washes lead close by station, but the upper one, or 

mule wash, is the smoothest. The road from Ehrenberg to Picacho, 

on the Arizona side of the Colorado River, passes within 2 miles of 

station. Where this road crosses mule wash, leave it and go up the 

wash about 2 miles to where wash forks the right hand passes very 

close to station, but the left is probably the smoothest, and the divide 

between them is good traveling.

LOW MESA, SAN BERNARDINO, COUNTY.

This station is not on any prominent point and is difficult to describe. 

The country for miles around it is much alike. The best way to reach 

it is to take the road from Parker to Needles and follow it until the 

6-mile post is passed. About 200 yards beyond the 6-mile post the 

road goes over-a high narrow backbone of mesa and down into a low 

wide stretch of wash country. From the road at this high place signal is in sight about 2 miles south, 66° west, on a white mesa ridge, 

with a long black hill in the distance for a background. Get the 

direction from this place, then follow the road a little farther, then 

leave it to the right and go straight across low flats and washes until 

the main wash is crossed close under station.

Station mark: A bronze triangulation tablet set in a rock and
