   We propose a follow-up ASCA observation of the newly discovered 7-s X-
   ray pulsar, PSR J1845-0258, to determine its timing and spectral
   parameters. PSR J1845-0258 is the latest addition to the rare class of
   anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs), often associated with young supernova
   remnants. In fact, a hitherto unknown shell-like, radio source has been
   found to coincide with the ASCA error circle of this object. The
   proposed observation will yield spin and flux measurements allowing us
   to constrain the emission properties and mechanism, and search for an
   enormous P dot as would be the case if the pulsar were powered by an
   underlying magnetar.
