Frank L. Chance sincerely believes
that Ray Heating, the boy whom the
Yanks secured from Lawrence, Mass,
will be as good as Ed Walsh within
few years.
"A great pitcher that boy" com,
mented Chance as he gazed at the
youngster.
''He uses the spit ball almost ex.
clusively, but has he the physique for

"Ill agree with you that he isn't as
tall as Walsh, but he weighs 1876

Would you call him better than

You have to give Matty lot of credit
He is wonderful pitcher. He has
speed, curves. a good slow ball and q
great mind. Johnson has more speed
than Matty, but lacks several Of the
other things.
IT do not believe that Johnson will
last as long as Mathewson. A man
cannot use as much speed as he does
for many seasons. He is developing
a curve ball that will be of great ad
vantage to him. He showed a good
curve when he pitched against us. He
has no slow ball to speak, of, but with
that curve and speed he will be bet

CLAYTON'S ATTACK
MAKES COM MERGE
CHAMBER HESITATE

The executive committee of the
Chamber of Commerce will meet this
afternoon to consider the report of the
chamber engineering committee Sc
verely criticising the city construction
department. Because Chief of Con-
struction Clayton has already made
public a spirited attack on this re-
port, even before the executive com
mittee had read it, it is said the com
lnittee is much embarrassed over what
TO do, and that the criticisms may
never be made public.
Though the contents of the report
are supposed to have been kept secret,
Chief OF Construction Clayton ADMIT
ted that he was familiar with them. He
attacked the engineering committee as
not having visited his Office nor made
any real Investigations.
Some of the members of the chamber
executive committee say that, in view
of the delicate political situation caused
by the new charter agitation, they think
it would be we'll to ''pigeonhole" the re-
port on Captain Clayton's department.
The general opinion is that Captain
Clayton has effectively called the inves-
tigating committees bluff.

Volumes of Smudge in Sawtell S
Market Evidence Enough for
Peachtree Resident.

A woman residing on Peachtree
walked into T. r. Sawtel's market this
morning shortly before o'clock. She
was met by great volumes OF smoke,
''Fire!" she screamed as she gathered
up her skirts and started for the door.
BE calm, madam" reassured a store
clerk, there is no trouble
But where there is so much smoke
there must be some fire" said the early
shopper, and she forthwith ran to the
fire box at Mitchell and Whitehall and
turned in an alarm Fire Chief Cum
mings was soon crashing down White
hall, proceeded by the strains of his
steam calliope, and half a dozen other
wagons came rushing up. The service
wagon of the Georgia Railway and
Power Company was among them.
In the meantime an employee had
been innocently smoking a choice ham
in the Sawtell basement. 1t might have
been q Smithfield or it might have been
something else, but that is beside the
question. The ham expert swears by
the great Ich Bin that it was ham and
nothing else Proof OF which, he says,
is in the tasting. Chief Cummings ex-
amined the parched shoulder and de-
clared there was not sufficient justifi-
cation for the excitement.
The woman who turned in the alarm
escaped into a department store and
has not been seen since.

General Diaz and General Huerta met

and signed an agreement to stand to-

General Huerta has telegraphed to
all the state governors and to the com
manders of the various military zones,
giving official notification of the down.
fall of Madero and the change of gov
