His honor was especially severe In his
denunciation of liquor nuisances, but il
was just about the close of his charge
that he made some very pointed ssugges-

LONDON. Sept. 16 Sire broke ont on
board the steamer Iopa from Edinburgh
TO London today. The flames spread
with SO much rapidity that before aid
reached the vessel six OF the passengers
and the stewardess of the Iona were
burned to death. The fire was put out
after four hours struggle.
The fire broke out when the Iona was
OIL Clacton, and originated in the lamp
room near the second cabin, i'm the for
ward part OF the vessel. The passengers
were aroused, and il was supposed that
all had escaped from the burning cabin.
While the crew were busy fighting the
flames, soldiers on board assisted IN low
ering the boats and in supplying passen-
gers with life belts. There was no wind
ana the sea was perfectly smooth. There
was, however, so much excitement and
confusion among the passengers that the
captain was unable 10 restore order. Sud
denly II was discovered that some women
and children were missing. The steward
ess re-entered the cabin, IL is presumed,
10 try 10 rescue those who were missing,
and she also perished. The darkness and
the volume OF smoke issuing from the
burning cabin combined to make terri
bic scene. Here there was passenger
rushing TO and fro in anguish seeking
his wife, ana there was another watching
for his daughter. Ii was not until three
compartments had been burned that il be-
came possible TO enter the cabin, where
there We're discovered the charred remains
of six women and one child.
Then the engines OF the steamer were
started up again, and the vessel proceed
ed on its way to London. There are va
rious rumors as to the origin OF the fire.
Some OF the passengers alleged that male
passengers acted in a cowardly manner
seeking first their own safety, instead OF
assisting the women and children into
the boats

All OF the leading devotecs of the game

upon as probable winner, with Tschi-

as dangerous rivals, while Pillsbury and
the Others were in the dark horse category.
Pillsbury's victory against such an array
OF talent is therefore ;ho more remarka-
bic as he was pittcd against men whose
experience In tournaments and matches
was calculated to at least overcome the

Pillsbury is an active member of the

for the scene of his great victory was the
recipient of u cordial demonstration at the
hands of that organization.

Harry Pillsbury. the Yankee Expert. ans
His Wonderful Victory at Hastings.

When Harry N. Pillsbury sailed for the
other side not long ago 20 compete in the
great international chess tournament at
Hastings, England, no one versed In chess
matters imagined that he would do any
thing worth mentioning against the chess
masters OF tho world, among them Steinitz,
Lasker Tarrasch and Tschigorin. Pills
bury, however, was the dark horse Of the
tournament. He won 1914 games, lost but
AZ and captured first prize. Tschigorin, the
Russian champion, took second; Lasker,
champion of the world, third Tarrasch,
the German champion, fourth, and ex-
Worlds Champion Steinitz fifth.
Pillsbury was born Is Somerville, Mass,
and Is boyish looking man, with beard
less face and slight figure His career as
chess player has not been Of the brilliant
order, but rather one of constant advance
ment. Pillsbury is % years old, and his
chess playing dates from his sixteenth
birthday, when he first learned the moves
OF the game at which he has now proved
himself 20 be the international champion.
Addison Smith, a leading member OF
the Boston Chess club, became interested
In the young man shortly after he began
to play, and Pillsbury was not slow TO take
advantage OF Smiths valuable experience.
He became an active member of the Bos-
ton Chess club, and enjoyed reputation
among Boston enthusiasts as coming
player.
Pillsbury's first important success was
gained over Steinitz, who unsuccessfully
