Comet Discovered

J. Hartman, Director of the Observatory of Laplata, Argentine cabled yesterday announcing the discovery of a comet with a tail on December 6.

It was of the second magnitude and is apparently identical to the one discovered a few days ago at Cape Town, South Africa.

The detailed observation was that the comet was of the right ascension, 16 hours, 27 minutes, declination minus 50 degrees.
