The news of MT. Nortons appoint ment to the high office of solicitor for the Santa Fe with all of California and Arizona in his department will be re- ceived with qualification by MT. Nor tons many friends throughout Arizona but they will be sorry to lose him as a resident of the territory. Although he is undoubtedly the youngest man in the United States to hold an office of this responsibility, MT. Nortons promotion has been won strictly on his merits as a lawyer. More than d year ago he took up the duties of solicitor for Arizona with headquarters a Pres colt, while his fcrmer chief, Captain Sterry, remained in charge of the de- partment of California. Capt. Sterrys health gradually failed. however, and it became necessary for MT. Norton to give considerable attention to the business of the company in California in addition to his duties in Arizona. Meantime. he had made a host of friends in this territory. one of the results of rare tact in connection with a character altogether clean. His marked success. both In Arizona and California pointed to him as the logical choice of the company to fill the vacancy by Captain Sterry's death and he was assigned to Los Angeles temporarily when Sterry died He is now appointed permanently as the legal head of the California depart ment. and retains jurisdiction over Arizona also-a remarkable proof Of his worth.
 It is understood that MT. Norton will have two assistants in this territory U- T. Clotfelter, esq, at Prescott and l.. Il. Chalmers, esq, at Phoenix. MT Clotfelter has been an assistant in the Los Angeles office for some time, and under MT. Norton's direction will have general charge of the Santa Fe's legal business in Arizona

Estimate of Cotton Acreage of the
United States, May 27, 1903.

New York, May 27.-With the view
of obtaining the most reliable inform
alton possible concerning the cotton
acreage of the United States for 1903,
we addressed 1000 letters to banks,
bankers, cotton commission merchants
and responsible planters, embracing
every cotton growing county in the
South, asking acreage estimates.
Up to this date we have secured 303O
replies, of average date May % and
the following tabulation is the result.
In our opinion it is as approximately
correct an estimate of the cotton acre
age as could be secured by direct COM
munication with parties competent
to judge, residing in the Southern
States.

the department, and the officials re-
fuse to say what steps, if any, have
been taken looking to his apprehen-
sion. It is stated that he does not re
side in Washington and is not here at
present.
Postmaster General Payne was asked
tonight for the name of this man, but
declined to discuss the subject, adding
that he knew nothing about it. The
inspectors. however, it is stated, know
the identity and movements of the
Intermediary. He may be arrested at
any time. The inspectors say the
evidence they have is of the most
comprehensive nature. 1t includes
many drafts of an alleged incriminat-
ing character, bearing the signature
of Mr.. Machen. The evidence was
worked up principally in Washington,
though much Of it was obtained in
other parts of the country. The final
decision to make the arrest was reach
ed at 3 O'Clock this morning, after a
protracted conference between the
United States district attorney and
the inspectors.
The arrest created profound sensa-
ton at the postofice department.. The
news spread rapidly and within few
minutes after the arrest the fact was
known generally. Postmaster General
Payne lost no time in communicating
the news to the public, summoning
the newspaper men and saying: "Mr.
Machen is now under arrest in this
building. He has received large sum
of money from the contractors who sup
ply the Government with certain
articles. The amount he is charged
with receiving is over $40, 600. The
