Abstract
I HAVE found and measured the planet Pluto on four plates (Superguil) taken at the Cracow Observatory on November 4 and 5, 1935, by K. Steins, using two 4¾-in.,f/5, twin Zeiss cameras, the duration of the exposures being two hours. The correction of the Ephemeris (” Berl. Jahrbuch”, 1935) is found to be ” = + 0.06s, ” = + 1.2.
