FILE SERIOUS CHARGES
 AGAINST HUGH GIBSON
CUBANS STILL AFTER THE SCALP OF AMERICAN REPRESENTA-.
 TIVE AT HAVANA.
Conservative Newspapers Blame Gu. ban Government For the Entire
 Official Disturbance.

Havana, Aug. 30.-Intense indigna- tion has been aroused among Ameri- cans here by the failure of the gov ernment to suppress the newspa per attacks on Hugh Gibson, charge d. affairs of the American legation. Ei Sigo, which is owned by General Ma chado, formerly member of the cabinet, again attacked Gibson per sonally, declaring that he is known as buffoon and a frequenter of all- night cafes in company with certain undesirable Americans. It describes the meeting of Gibson and two of these men as orgies and accuses the charge d. affairs of protecting an Am erican who had insulted the police.
 The three Americans named are ac- cused of having formed a combination to bring about intervention again by the United States. Some of the more serious newspapers are beginning to argue against the use of such vitup- cra;lOn as extremely dangerous and likely to bring on international com plications. The conservative papers blame the Cuban government for the entire affair.

JOHNSON IS GREAT PITCHER
Has Added to His Terrific Speed Ex. ceiIent Control, Slow Ball and
 Quick Breaking Curve.

Walter Johnson is today a per- feet pitcher" said one of the veteran unlpires Of the American league re- gently in discussing the Washington marvel eff you could have hurler made to order you couldn't design one who would be a bit more effective than the big Swede, whose name is a terror to the best batsmen in the country.
 Johnson isn't using his terrific speed much nowadays. In fact, he sell dom cuts one loose with all his might unless he happens to be in tight place and opposed to hitter who is weak on the fast ones. He throws a lot of fast balls with a break on them still, but they are not of the old ar- mor-piercing type that made hlm fa- nous.
 At one time he had to depend al- most entirely on the velocity of his ball and his control to make him for nlidable, but TOW he has acquired a good curve and a nice change of pace. For some time lie has been experi- menting with a slow ball, and now he has got command of it. Think of the deadly efficiency of slow one coming after ball that has been turned through a mile a minute.
 Walters curve is not the widest in the world, but it is a quick one, and the break plenty large enough to ac-

complish the desired purpose. His con- trol, which always has been good, seems to be improving.
 "On top of this he has a splendid disposition for a pitcher. Nothing seems to rattle him. Some pitchers get up in the air if they think an um- pire has missed strike in a pinch, but Walter just smiles, knowing that he can lay the next one over if he has to. He is by all odds the greatest pitcher in the game today and to my mind there never lived one who was any better. AS near as any human be- ing can hope to achieve in any line of endeavor Johnson has achieved 1t as a pitcher"

MODERN BASEBALL IS FASTER
Nothing to Be Accomplished by Wordy Controversy on Merits of
 Old and Young Players.

There may be some good accom-. plished from a wordy controversy whether or not baseball is faster than it used to be, but just exactly how this is to effect the cost of living is not so perfectly apparent, says the Milwaukee Sentinel.
 The old fellows who have had their day and who are continually looking backward, seem to think that they played faster and better in the olden time, but the young men who are now engaged in making baseball history are dead sure the old timers were truck horses in comparison with them.
 There Is no reason why the old. timers could not hit ball just exact. ly as hard; run just as fast and field just as accurately. It may be that owing to the development of pitching they would not have an opportunity to hit and run as often, and inside baseball may be developed more than It was Ill the olden times, but grant all this and what's the answer?
 It p!eases us who remember some of the old-timers to think they were just as good as the best but 1t may be that We are mistaken. At that, 1t is pretty hard to see what is going to be accomplished by the disillusion. ment. If the men of today arc much better than they used to be, let it go at that. Nothing can be accomplish. ed by arguing this question any moro than can be by indulging in con. troversy over politics or religion.

COTTON
H+++++++++++++*1
New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, Aug. 30-Cotton-t'u- lures opened steady at decline Of Z @5 points on poor cables. No rain of consequence was reported ill the cot ton belt over night, which was con- sidered unfavorable insofar as Texas and Oklahoma were concerned. Im- mediately after the call prices stood points down here and buying orders increased, apparently coming from both sides of the market. The fore cast of generally fair weather for the entire belt increased the desire to buy, although bears pointed out that it would hasten the opening of the crop and swell the movement. At the end of the first half hour prices were 2@3 points over yesterdays close.
 Futures opened steady. August, 10.S3c, nominal; September 1O.76@ @1O.78c; October, 10.S3@10.84c; De- cember, 10.S6@1O.S7c; January, 10.S9c bid; March, 11.O4c; May, 11.14c.
 Telegrams from Texas telling of in- creased offerings of spot cotton and claiming improvement in the crop in sections that are generally consider ed to be. going back through lack of moisture, encouraged selling by scalping shorts around the middle of the morning. There was little de- mand from any source and moderate offerings were sufficient to put prices down to new low levels for the week, the trading months going 4@5 points under yesterdays final quotation. When shorts tried to take their pro- fits the market stiffened and at noon stood 1@2 points over yesterdays last prices.
 In the afternoon the market was full and featureless. At 2 o'clock prices were 1 point over yesterdays close.
 New York Cotton.
 New York, Aug. 30.-The cotton market opened steady at decline of 2@S points in response to lower cahles, favorable condition reports, good weather in the South and re- newal of yesterdays late selling movement The early decline carried prices to new low grounds for the movement and the market later in the morning rallied or points from the lowest on covering for over the holidays. A few September notices were issued causing scattering iiqui- dation, but September was helped by trade interest and sold later posi- tions.
 Futures opened steady. January, 1O.71@1O.72c; February, 10.79@10.81c; March, 1OS5c bid; May, 10.91@ 1O92c; September, 10.45c offered; October, 1O.73@1O74c; December, 1O.86@1O.SSc.
 The market sold up to a net ad- vance of 2@3 points later in the morning on unfavorable private crop adyices from South Texas but the chief buying seemed to come from scattered shorts and prices later were barely sustained with the market quiet at midday and about net un> changed. Spot nominal
 Covering became rather more active during the early afternoon and prices sold about GOT points net higher.
 Futures closed barely steady.
