WILL, RE ACC,EpTED

WILL BE ACCEPTED.
The following is dispatch TO the
Baltimore Sun from Boston:
THE new battleship Kearsarga had
her trial trip to-day.
She made an average OF 1886 knots
an hour over the Cape Ann course.
which covers sixty-six nautical miles.
It is presumed that allowances for t;,:e
end other conditions will bring the
average speed UP to seventeen knot.
IT is assured that the Ilearsarge Will
pc accepted by the government un.in:
the contract. which calls for sixteen
knots an hour over the course at l2v
revolutions or less. There is no longer
premium for exceeding contract
speed.
The trial board was made IN of
Rear Admiral Frederick Rogers Ca2-
tain Robley u. Evans and Lieutenant
Commander Charles r. Rocker
An unfortunate accident reduced the
Kearsarge's speed materially over :Ae
last few legs of the trial course. This
was break in her feed water tubes.
which. 1t is estimated, resulted In the
loss OF three-uuarters of a knot. The
accident was the cause of a steady drop
made In the southwark course. which
brought the average speed on elapse Z
time below seventeen knots.

THE NEW ASSESSOR
The Supervisors Garry Oul a Pre-
 Election Understanding.

The new board of supervisors yestef- day appointed L. W. Coggins county assessor under an agreement between the democratic and republican county central committees before the election. MT. Coggins was regularly nominated on the republican ticket The demo- cratic convention believing that an election for this office could not be legally held until the law making the office elective had gone into effect, had made no nomination for assessor. That date was January 1. After MT. COggins' nomination the democratic committee put B. F. NTcFau on the ticket, both committees pledging that tha candidate receiving the largest vote should be appointed regardless of the political complexion of the board of supervisors which should have the ap- pointive power.
 When the matter was brought up in the board yesterday Mr F. P Trott, representing the democratic commit tee, announced the terms of the agree ment. MT COggins was nominated by Supervisor Marshall. The nomination was seconded by Supervisor Norton and the nominee was chosen unani- nloUsiy. Though tn board could have made the appointment for enc year, it made it f3r the regular term of two years, since the office cannot be filled under the present law before the ex- piration of two years.
 Pima county is having trouble over the assessors office. The old assessor is refusing to vacate, on the ground that the change in the manner of fill ing the office leaves TO authority with the board of supervisors to make an appointment. As no successor has been elected, the incumbent claims that he is to stay in the office until a prop eriy qualified successor calls for it.

THE COUNTY CASH.
rlore Honey in inc Treasury Than
 There Was Ever Before.

The cash in the county treasury was counted yesterday for the last tins un- der the management of MT. Murray. The supervisors are busy checking up his accounts, but will get through with the work this morning. There is more cash in the treasury now than there ever was before-$135, ,81432 Of this sum about $55 900 belongs to the terri tory and will be transmitted within 8 day. This is more by $7,000 than the county ever before contributed to the territorial treasury.
 The inspection Of the accounts of the treasurer show other broken records. Mere money by $20,00O has been col lected this year than in any previous year. This excess is attributed entire ly to increased prosperity in the Salt River valley, good crops and good prices Any excess of taxation has had nothing to do with it.
 In spite of the plethoric condition of the treasury, one unpleasant and anom-

A COWPUNCHER SHOT.
Fatal Quarrel Between Two Men Near
 the Line.

John Grayson shot and killed James Toutin about one mile from the United States custom house in Cochise county on Saturday. From the meager par ticulars obtainable it seems that both men, who were cowboys, were with some companions driving a bunch of cattle, when two head broke away from the bunch near Toutin, who failed to head them off. Grayson be- came enraged/ /at this and drawing his gun shot Toutin twice, killing him. The shooting was done on Mexican soil and Grayson immediately crossed to the American side and went toward San Bernardino. Officers are now on his trail.
