In addition to the list of UBV photometries of 955 galactic foreground stars
in the direction to the Large Magellanic Cloud published by Gochermann
et al. (1993a), a supplement of 545 stars is
presented, which have been measured with the same photometric
accuracy. Moreover, less reliable photometries of 379 further
foreground stars are listed in a separate table. The homogeneous
data base of more than 
high accuracy photometries
represented by these stars has been used to construct a reddening
distribution map of the galactic foreground towards the LMC by
Oestreicher et al. (1995).
