Description:
    In this paper, radial velocities of 94 galaxies brighter than about
    V_tot=20mag in the direction of the central Fornax cluster have
    been measured. The galaxies have been selected from the photometric
    catalog of Paper I (Hilker et al., 1998, Cat. <J/A+AS/134/59>). Most
    of the velocity determinations of the fainter galaxies are based on
    strong emission lines of late type galaxies. Table 2 of this paper
    contains the position, magnitude and velocity of all galaxies. Except
    for 8 Fornax members, all galaxies lie in the background. Among the 8
    members, there are 5 nucleated dwarf ellipticals that are already
    listed in the FCC (Ferguson, 1989, Cat. <VII/180>). Two of the 3
    "new" members are very compact and have surface brightnesses
    comparable to globular clusters, however their luminosities are in the
    range of dwarf elliptical nuclei.

Note (1): The catalog names are prefixed by the acronym CGF (Catalog of
          Galaxies in Fornax) followed by a sequence number of the field
          and the sequence number of the galaxy in this field (see Appendix A
          of Paper I, Hilker et al., 1998, Cat. <J/A+AS/134/59>).
          The letters "a" and "b" appended to the catalog name indicate two
          possible velocity determinations of the object. Three objects are
          prefixed by the acronym FCC (Fornax Cluster Catalog, Ferguson, 1989,
          Cat. <VII/180>). They are not present in our photometric catalog
          of Paper I, and there positions are taken from the FCC.
          In this table the galaxies are ordered with increasing right ascension
Note (2): We defined 4 classes of quality due to the clearness/evidence of the
          velocity identification:
          (1) a clear and evident identification, both velocity determination
              methods agree very well
          (2) very probable identification, almost clear
          (3) doubtful, but most probable value
          (4) very doubtful, only a try
