president of the British Chess club
tries arc working up their powers to tight
tension preparatory to the great struggle.
The indefatigable Sir George Newnes,
president Of the British Chess club, who
offered the magnificent international CUP
which was won by the Brooklyn Chess
club last March, has marshaied his forces
In stout array and Is prepared to make a
strong fight in support Of his challenge for
q return match. His team will probably be
composed of Burn, Lee, Tinsley, Lawrence,
Locock, Mills, Atkins, jackson and Smith.
These veterans will be- hard to defeat.
Most of them played in last years game,
and as they have some old scores to settle
with Americas representatives they may
be expected to do fierce work. Tinsley in
particular, who has not yet forgiven him
self for being worsted by young Barry,
will make mighty effort TO put quietus
ON the Boston boy.
The mako up Of the American team,
managed by President Josiah 7. Marsan
Of the Brooklyn Chess club, will difIr
sliRhtly from that of last years oombina-
tion. The list will probably include pills

before the contest begins.
The contest will be carried on by cable.
Tho Americans will defend the CUP on the
stage of the Academy Of Music In Brook
lyn, while their antagonists across the wa.
tsr will occupy the oommodious pillar
room of the Cannon Street hotel This
chess playing by cable is wonderful and
intensely interesting thing. In the forth
coming contest announcements Of each
move will be transmitted through 8, 4S9
miles of space at such incredible speed
that IL can hardly be realised. Only few
seconds after q play is made In Brooklyn
the news of it is ticking out to the waiting
players In London. The auditorium OF
the Academy of Music will be kept open
for all spectators interested in the great
contest, and thousands will be In constant
attendance. The ten American players
will be seated well down toward the foot
lights on the stage, facing the spectato
with their chess tables in front Of them.
Just behind the team and higher than the
players heads, as seated, viii ne sUspeaaAA:
ed ten giant chess boards with movable
figures, and upon these boards every move
will be immediately shown, SO that all
present may at all times know the actual
state OF each game at every moment of its
progress.
In this contest fair play will be secured
in this manner: An English umpire, Isaac
L. Rice, will be in Brooklyn to keep an
eye on the proceedings, while L. Hoffer,
an American umpire, will be stationed in
the Cannon Street hotel to supervise the
play Of the Englishmen. II these umpires
agree as to the reeult of the entire play,
such agreement is final. II, however, they
should be at variance upon any point, the
question at Issue Is to be determined by
Baron Albert do Rothschild of Vienna,
who has been chosen as referee. The rules
governing the play are Il In number and
extremely rigid. Rule Is especially
stringent. II prohibits all consultation,
reference to books or manuscripts or anal.

game with the home team, and lost by one
goal. Salem put up hard game and the
Whalers had their hands full most of the
time, and at one period of the game mat
ters began to look serious for the New
Bedford contingent. The game was not
rough and was mainly of the passing or
der, the only fouls called were on Wiley
and Conway. The first was on account Of
Wiley holding Spencer, and the second
looked for a minute as though Conway and
Wiley would do little work in the pugi-
listic line. Hipson was very speedy, and
did most of the driving for the territory
covered by John Smith. The summary:
