Tlio planet, as yet mummed, la beyond Neptune, and Is probably larger tlian tlio earth but smaller tluin Uruidus. Dr. Slmpley hailed the dlscovei-y as 0110 ot the most Important in astronomy slnco that of Neptuno in 1840. Tho yoars of research which led to tho doflnite determination of tho existence of a trans-Nentunn lm.iv have confirmed the bollef of the luto Perclvul Lowell, brother of President1 A- Lawrenco . Lowoll of Harvard, that such a planet existed, Dr. Shupley said. I Tho telegram which was rocolved by the observatory this morning road: . .. . . I "Systomntlc research begun years . ngo, supploniontlnB Lowell's lnvos j tlgatlon for b. trajis-Neptunlan I planet, hus reveulcd an object I which for sevon woeks has In ratn of motion and path consistently I conformed to li'atra-Noptuntun body ; at tho upproxlmnle distance he un signed.

Dr. Shaiioly said tho distance ot tho new planet beyond Neptuno had not been definitely computet and neither had its Orbit been cal culated, as facias he know.

Morcui-y is only 28,660.000 miles from the sun at its nearest ap proach, while Neptune Is calculated to bo 2,709,000,000,000 miles away. Noptuno's passage around ths sun requires 1GG years, I Neptuno Discovery Similar j Nopttino was dlucovored mathe matically much In the same way thut tlie oxlstenco of the new planot was first surmlsod becauso of uor tnin peculiarities In tho. orbit of Noptuno.
