File in WASHINGTON

Official Report of the Trial Board on
File in Washington.
WASHINGTON, September 23d.-The off,
cial report of the Trial Board of the new
cruiser Charleston was received at the Navy
Department from San Francisco to-day.
The report shows that the maximum horse
power developed was 6,S16, while the aver
age power is considerably less, making
deficiency under the contract requirement
calling for about $4,000 penalty. The
Board stated that the hull, fittings. engines,
machinery, boilers, ETC., are strong and well
built and in conformity with the contract
and changes made by the Department; !;
that the vessel is sufficiently strong to carry
her coal equipment, etc. They call atten-
ton to the better vacuum maintained by
the improved air pumps adopted by the
contractors, by the means of which fully
$50 horsepower is saved.
No action has yet been taken on the re-
port, Secretary Tracy being absent but the
vessel will undoubtedly be accepted.
CONSIDERABLE RED TAPE.
WASHINGTON, September 23d. = Henry
Scott of the Union Iron Works, San Fran
cisco, returned here from New York to day
and at once called at the Navy Depart
ment to see about the acceptance of the
cruiser Charleston by the Government.
He found a number of obstacles and
stated to the California Associated Press
agent that it would probably be two or
three weeks before the Government decided
on accepting the vessel. The Board of
Naval Officers with Commodore Beham at
the head who were on the trial trip OF the
Charleston, in their report of the trip to
Secretary Tracy suggested few alterations
or improvements on the vessel.
These changes, MIR. Scott claims, were
not in the contract, and if made should be
done by the Government at the Govern
ments expense.
Secretary Tracy does not dispute Mr.
Scott's statements; in fact, it is under
stood he indorses them, but as the Board
in its report does not specify that these
changes are outside of the contract, be is
loath to act until the subject of the con.
tract is settled, so after further conference
it was decided to call Commodore Ben
hams attention to these changes as recon-
mended, and if he agreed that the contract
didnot so specify, he would be asked to make
supplemental report covering the matter
satisfactorily.
This will take some time, as the CORE
spondence will be carried on by mail; but
IT is generally understood that the error in
the report will be rectifed, and that Secre-
tary Tracy will accept the vessel and have
the changes made at the Governments ex-
pense. Mr.. Scott will remain here about
week longer.
