London. January 10s--Amos Burn. the
Liverpool chess player, who. according to
Information received At the British chess
cable match between Great Britain and
America on February y or 10, has been
very severely criticised In London and
provincial chess circles, lnasmuch as
Burn has always posed as an amateur. It
is all the more incotnprehensiblc Why he
would not support the Britlshers in the
coming match. He played on The second
board last year. when be was beaten by
Showalter. and as blackburn has already
promised to play on board No. | against
Pillsbury this year, II was thought that
Burn would consider II his duty TO try
TO retain his lost laurels against showalter
this year. Anybody versed In matters per-
tanning to chess knows what a difference
II makes to whole team when stray
PLAYER like Burn refuses to play. and 1t la.
therefore, generally expected that Burn
will be morally compelled to take the place
on the team. beaten parilS through the de-
| feat administered to him last year by
| Showalter. II will be all the more disas-
trous to the Britishcrs. as neither Bird.
Tinsley or Lee are thought strong
enough for play on the British team. and
as matters stand at present they have only
one player of really first -class information

and Others who viii have 70 play are
amateurs and rank only secondary IN in

London, January 1.-THE mission OF
Senator Edward o. Wolcott OF Colorado to
Europe is of absorbing interest to all inter-
ested In the financial measure. Thus far
the senator has been content to sound Eng
lish feeling rather than TO expound his
views. and the dinner which MIR. Henry
White, formerly secretary Of the United
States legation here, given on January IL
to number of distinguished people In Or
der to enable them TO meet Senator VOL
colt, was an excellent opportunity for him
to do so. as among those present were Mr.
a. j. Balfour. first lord of the treasury
and government leader of the house of
commons, the marquis OF Lansdowne, sec
rotary Of state for war. MIR. William Court
Gully of the house OF commons, Lord DE
Rothschild and MIR. Henry Asquith, form
erly secretary OF state for home affairs. The
dinner was a striking example of Mr.
Whites position in England as there are
few men who are able TO collect such
| gathering at short notice.
| representative of the Associated Press
had brief talk with Mr.. Bafour, who, at
/ first. was reluctant to say anything on the
subject for publication on account OF his
official position. hut remarked,
lyon can be sure that this is from no
lack of interest in the cause. However
you may say that have great pleasure in
meeting Senator Wolcott and heartily con-
eur in his ideas so far as | have heard
them. | am certain his mission will be
| productive Of good results TO the cause Of
bimetallism in both countries"
Lord Rothschild was OF the opinion that
| whatever benefit blmetallism would de-
rive from the senator's mission would be
OH the continent rather in England, add
ing.
1T depends on whatever action the pow
ers that be In France and Germany VIII
take. Senator Wolcott will undoubtedly
confer with Emperor William and Meliine'

garded Senator Wolcott an able man and
continuing, he said
"Of course we" abiding TO his firm
ARE strict monometallists, +" His lo-dshiI

"Wnl the senate ratify it?'' he asked.
