American publishers are protected
by the imposition Of a stiff duty on

CHESS EXPERT COMING.
SchIechter, Famous Master, Plans to
Visit America In May.

Next to DR.. Emanuel Lasker, Carl
Schlechter, the unobtrusive Viennese
master, occupies the central position
in the world of chess today. His
stand against the champion in the
great match recently concluded at
Berlin is unparalleled in the annals
of match play since the late William
Steinitz was dethroned by the present
incumbent
Although DR.. Lasker retains the title
of worlds champion, and, in view Of
the fact that he evened the score at
the eleventh hour, commands the same
respect he ever did, Schlechter ranges
up alongside of him an impressive
figure, greater than that Of any Of
the other masters living today. DR..
Lasker himself has been generous
enough to acknowledge the greatness
of his recent antagonist.
According to cable received from
Berlin, Schlechter contemplates COM
ing to this country in May for tour.
He has been here but once before,
when he came to play in the interna-
tional masters tournament in 1904.
