The board of survey which has
examined the wrecked ships of
Admiral Cervera's squadron reports
that the Maria Teresa and Ciistobal
Colon nay be saved and made SER
viceable to our navy if prompt action
is taken.
The board made a three-days'
examination Of the Spanish ships.
The cruisers Vizcaya and Almirante
Oquendc and the two torpedo boat
destroyers Pluton and Furor are
utter wrecks. The main batteries
of all the ships can be saved.
The board has made four impor-
tant recommendations, viz: That
no wood should be used in the con
structicn of warships. That no
torpedoes should be carried On fight
ing vessels. That the rapid fire
batteries on battleships are of su-
preme importance. That the fire
of the main battery should be below
the protective deck.
Sixty-one destructive shell holes
we're found in the hull of the Al
mirante Oquendo, "a in the Vizcaya,
33 in the Maria Teresa and eight in
that of the Cristobal Coloa. The
vizcaya was blown up by Ler own
own torpedoes.

FASSETT'S PROMISES.

On April 4th, 1896. the organ OF the
"boss" said:
"There has always been a contest
among the banks for the public depos-
its-a thiog that has always b en- more
or less detrimental to the city. 1t has
always been believed, and is commended
now, that these depo-its should be d.
vided among the banks. City Treas
urer Fassett has acted on this idea and
has pledged himself to do this, If re-
elected April 3rd.
Yesterday the organ of the "boss''
said:
ssMr. Fassett wants the Times to
state that whatsoever asserts that he
ever made auy premise to any banker
or bankers In regard to city deposits
lies. He had divided deposits at the
t me of the loss, but there was no pro.
mise or understanding about it."
The Times did not stop two years
ago in giving his pledges, but to show
that they wee made in good faith il
added: st was this disposition thai
caused him to place part of the city
deposits in the Ell Paso National bank.
Mr.. Fassett and the Tines have oul
consent to fight the matter out. II the
latter placed the former in a false pc
sition it doubt did 30 at the dicta
tio1 of the ''boss."

ALDERMAN CLIFFORD.

THE Graphic proves Jim Clifford to
be one of the strongest democrats up
on the ticket. We have had the same
opinion of the alderman from the first
ward for long time. He did the DEM
ocratic party herculean service by
keeping the city government from
psssir g into the republicans posses
sion year ago when John O'Keeffe
was elected mayor, consequently we
heartily endorse the following from
this mornings Graphic:
''Re has voted with the democrats in
the city council On every question de-
cioed by party vote. It was his vote
that prevented the O'Keeffe contest
for the mayOrsity year ago. If he
had voted with the republicans at that
time Mayor Magoffin would have been
depo ed and O'Keetfe made mayor, in
all probability.

1.-THE Times wouldn't accept an edi-
