An Erratum is available in PDF format: ApJ 471, 1073 (1996) A few minor additional errors have come to light: Quasar #33 in Table 1 should have a declination of +49 52 00.75, and some of the uncertainties in Tables 3 and 4 were computed incorrectly, though the differences are small and do not change the conclusions.
