Melville was placed in charge of a second laboratory at San Francisco, and in the autumn of 1883 the central laboratory was started in Washington, with myself as chief chemist. In November, 1885, Dr. Hillebrand was transferred to Washington; he was followed early in 1888 by Mr. Eakins, and the Denver laboratory was discontinued. Dr. Melville was also brought to Washington in the spring of 1890, and since then the chemical work of the Survey has been concentrated at headquarters.
