CHESS CHALLENGE aUIBBLE
DR.. Lasker Takes Exceptions to
Capablanca's Terms.

That Jose r Capablanca. the Cuban chess
champion, Is not likely to be accommo-
dated with match for the worlds cham
pionship, at least not in the near future,
and not without recourse 10 third party
was made plain yesterday. The news was
contained I'm letter written from Berlin
bv Dr. Emanuel Lasker the title holder
I'm response 10 Capablanca's communication
setting forth his views of the conditions
laid down by the champion.
II appears that Or. Lasker did not like
the tone Of his young rivals letter, and re-
marks that It Is indicative Of a lack OF
generation among other things, although
the Cuban expressly stated that he had
endeayorcd in preparing his answer to
make plain his objections without being
offensive. Al he asked for. he said, was
"a square deal and an even chance that
tho hest man may win" Nevertheless. Dr.
r.asker took exception TO and regarded as
offensive Capablanca's reference 20 All "ob-
vlous unfairncss" Further, he says that
u,huo capabIanca asked him TO name his
conditions for a match. the latter in turn
a,tar,n,od to impose his own. On the
e,renotb Of all this, Or. Lasker regards
enc challenge as null and void and con-
..,dors himself free TO deal with other chal-
lengers.
Dr I.asker did not overlook the question
Of arbitration, and suggested that Capa-
h,apca direct his protest 10 the Franklin
Chess club OF Philadelphia.

HOLDS STATE FIRE LOSS
CAN BE REDUCED BY HALF

Springfield. III, Sept. 25.-A move
nent looking to the establishment Of
a national. fraternal. beneficiary or
ganization for firemen was one of the
principal subjects discussed yesterday
by delegates to the 18th annual con-
vontion OF the National Firemen's as
sociation, which began a three days
meeting.
This movement is being given ser
icus consideration on account of the
fact that the hazardous occupation in
which fremen are engaged practically
bars them from securing insurance.
A feature OF the afternoon session
was an address by Secretary of State
Doyle OF Illinois, former fire marshal,
in which he argued that the conserva-
ton OF builded property far outshad-
owed that OF the conservation of nat.
ural resources. 1t was contended that
by care and conservation the $1,000.
600 fire loss in Illinois last year could
have been reduced 80 per cent.

CRISIS NEAR
FOR BALKANS

London, Sept. 25.-A crisis in the

among diplomats here. The arrest to-
day of six fully equipped Austrian
soldiers under command of Lieutenant
Szekeresy, firing by Turks on a Greek
-steamer at Samos are embittering
people of the states directly inter
ested. 1t is thought it will take all
the ingenuity of the foreign offices
and their representatives in Turkey
to avert the Balkan outbreak so often
predicted. Turkeys decision to hold
extensive army maneuvers next month
i'll Villayet Adrianople, in which it is
said, $4,000 troops will participate,
likely to be looked upon by Bulgarians
as a threat, leads to a belief that
Turkey is not averse to a diversion
which would allow peace to be signed
with Italy under cover of necessity
for the protection of the Turkish
frontiers.
