The following geographic positions were determined from primary 

traverse run by Mr. C. B. Kendall in 1904. The line starts from an 

adjusted position at Generys, follows railroads and wagon roads south, 

east, arid north near the borders of the quad rangle, and is connected 

with an adjusted position at Leeds. Another line starts from adjusted 

position at Pelham, follows the Louisville and Nashville Railroad 

southward near the middle of the quadrangle, and connects with main 

traverse line along the southern, border.

Geographic positions along the Alabama Great Southern Railroad.

DES MOINES SPECIAL QUADRANGLE.

The following geographic positions were determined from primary 

traverse in 1904 by Mr. J. R. Ellis, topographic aid. The line starts 

from north meridian stone in court-house yard at Des Moines, located 

by astronomic observations by the United States Coast and Geodetic 

Survey, and follows the Chicago Great Western Railway southwest 

to Orillia; thence north along public highways to northwest corner of 

quadrangle; thence east to Enterprise. The line follows Des Moines, 

Iowa Falls and Northern Railway for about three miles; thence runs 

south along public highways to Levey; thence northwest along Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railway to Des Moines, connecting with 

original position.

The following geographic positions were determined by primary 

traverse run by Mr. C. B. Kendall, field assistant, in the summer of 

1904. The line begins with adjusted position of north end of highway 

bridge over the Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington Railroad at 

Bowie, established by primary traverse by Mr. C. B. Kendall in 1903, 

and follows the Popes Creek branch of the Pennsylvania Railroad to 

Upper Marlboro, thence along the Chesapeake Beach Railway to 

Chaney station. From Chaney station the line follows highways east 

and is tied to the position of the old Fairhaven wharf as given on the 

Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart No. 135.

The following geographic positions were determined by primary 

traverse by Mr. 'George T. Haw kins, topographer. Starting from 

United States Coast and Geodetic Survey astronomic station in the 

grounds of the University of Minnesota, at Minneapolis, a spur line 

was run in 1899 along the main line of the Northern Pacific .Railway 

to Itasca station, and another spur line along the main line of the 

Canadian Pacific Railway to Hamel station. In 1904 circuits were 

completed by continuing these lines around the borders of the Lake 

Sarah and Minnetonka quadrangles.

The following geographic positions were determined from primary 

traverse run by Mr. J. R. Ellis in 1905. The line starts from the Missouri River Commission triangulation station, Otoe, follows the Bur-. 

lington Railway across Missouri River; thence north along Kansas 

City, Saint Joseph and Council Bluff's Railway to Percival, thence 

along highways to the Missouri River Commission triangulation station, Pugh. Again starting at Otoe triangulation station the line follows Missouri Pacific Railway to Peru, Nebr., thence along highways 

westward to Talmage and connects with adjusted position near there.

Another line starts from adjusted position near Dunbar, Nebr., follows highways north and east along the border of the quadrangle to 

Wyoming, thence southeast along Missouri Pacific Railway to Nebraska 

City and connects with adjusted position there.

PRIMARY TRAVERSE.

ERIE COUNTY. 

EDEX QUADRANGLE.

The following geographic positions were determined from primary 

traverse by Mr. E. L. McNair, topographer, in 1904. The line starts 

at Hamburg triangulation station, United States Lake Survey, follows 

highways eastward to Orchard Park, and is connected with a point at
NEW YORK. 79

that place located by primary traverse in 1903. The line then folloAvs 

highways along the eastern, southern, and western borders of the 

quadrangle, and is tied to Sturgeon Point triangulation station, United 

States Lake Survey. Another line crosses the quadrangle from west 

to east, connecting with Shefflin and Richmond triangulation stations 

of the United States Geological Survey. Positions are given on the 

United States standard datum.

United States Lake Survey, runs westward along or near IllinoisWisconsin State line to longitude 88° 30'; thence northward along the 

eastern border of the Delavan quadrangle to latitude 4:2° 45'; thence 

westward along the northern border of the Delavan and Shopiere 

quadrangles to Janesville triangulation station of the United States 

Coast and Geodetic Survey, which, however, could not be identified. 

The line was also run around the Whitewater quadrangle, with a spur 

to Oakland triangulation station, and extended northward, connecting 

with Lebanon triangulation station and Clyraan primary traverse station. Another line was extended eastward from Dousman along the 

Chicago and Northwestern Railwa}^ and was connected with Delafield 

triangulation station and Milwaukee court-house spire triangulation 

station, United States Lake Survey. Positions are given on the 

United States standard datum.

TECATE, SAN-DIEGO COUNTY.

A station of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey. It is 

not on the highest point of the mountain. The highest point is 

.marked by a cairn of stones, and, as one .can not see monument 246 

from this point, a point southeast, distant about 40 feet, was selected, 

from which one sees both monuments 246 and 245. To reach station 

from Potrero, on road from San Diego to Campo, drive south about 6 

miles to store and saloon of Mr. Brown, on boundary. Here the-old 

trail made b}7 the Boundary Commission leads to monument 246. The 

trail was grown up with bushes in 1899, and was very rough. From

TRIANGULATION STATIONS.

CHOUTEAU AND VALLEY COUNTIES. 

Blfl SANDY, BOX KL»Ell, LONKSOMK SI'KiJIAL, ANI> OTIIEIl (JUAUKANULVS.

During the season of 1904 Mr. Fred McLaughlin connected the triangulatiou, which had been extended eastward from the Burnham 

Base to the line Galpin-Nassau of the Missouri River triangulation. 

This connection was made in Valley County near the junction of the 

Missouri and Milk rivers.

Later in the season an area of about 1,000 square miles was controlled, extending from a little north of Burnham Base, in Chouteau 

County, south of Burnham Base, to connect with the line Recess-Ridge

of the Missouri River triangulation, then west to beyond the Marias

River. The work was done under the supervision of Mr. H. L. Baldwin, jr.; eight old stations were reoccupied, including those of the 

Missouri River Commission, and eighteen new ones were selected and 

occupied. The latitude adopted is that of international boundary 

monument No. 318, corrected graphically for station error to the mean 

parallel of 49° 00'.04.90".

The longitude depends upon the astronomic longitude of the schoolhouse and church spire at Chinook, as determined by the United States 

Coast and Geodetic Survey in the fall of 1903.
