STETNTTZ ALIVE. BIT TNCIRiBLT I'LL.

London. Feb. Eft Is now well established that
the recent report of the death Of Stentz the chess
master was erroneous. \ dispatch 10 the Central
News from Berlin says that friends OF his IN that
city have received information from Moscow that
he is alive but suffering from an ncurable ucera-
ton of the brain. The rumor Of his death probably
arose from the fact that he recently swooned and
was unconscious for long time. Since then his
condition has become worse. He has forgotten all
about chess playing. and occupies the intervals be-
tween his attacks of deirium in writing what he
imagnes TO be ESSAYS on philosophy. and discussing
the date of his return to New-lOrk.
Lasker. the well-known chess player, has written
the papers asking them to assist IN raising a
fund for the benefit Of Stenitz's family.
