Strength of Local Team Gives Capablanca Trouble
Wins 25 of His 31 Games
Jose R. Capablanca met thirty-one players last Wednesday at the Chicago Chess and Checker club in one of his incomparable simultaneous exhibitions. Among his opponents were many of the best players in the city.
The general strength of the team probably accounts for the fact his score was not as good nor his time as short as in other exhibitions on his present tour. In four hours he defeated twenty-five adversaries, drew with two, and lost to four.
The winners were O. Chajes, F. H. Chase, E. Michelsen, and C. W. Phillips, while H. D. Smith and L. Uedemann drew. The losers were J. W. Barnhart of Indianapolis, A. H. Coe, W. M. Cox, T. Demarais, T. Diven, A. Edler, S. Ehrlich, K. Erdeky, E. Everett, L. W. Felt, R. C. Griswold, H. Hahlbohm, B. C. Jenkines of Logansport, N. Lykke, Dr. McGrath. M. Menn, E. H. Miller of Philadelphia. F. Newman, L. Ostberg. Dr. Phillips, B. Pollock, D. Sullivan, J. M. Stolnitzky, W. Stuchfield, and John Winter.
