Arthur W. Dake, of New York, formerly of Portland, Ore., paid an interesting visit to Philadelphia on Saturday, January 14. At the Mercantile Library he played simultaneously against 27 players, making an even score of 11 wins, 11 losses and 5 drawn games. He had, however, an exceptionally strong team against him. We give below the score of all the players. A “1” following the name signifies that the Philadelphian won and “0” following the player's name signifies that the Philadelphian lost, as, for example, B. F. Winkelman won, S. T. Sharp drew and H. Kroekel lost, etc., down the list.
The list follows:
B. F. Winkelman 1
D. G. Weiner 1
R. C. Sellers 1
H. Kroekel 0
S. T. Sharp ½
F. L. Beucler 1
A. Regen 1
I. Ash ½
J. Wilkinson 1
P. H. Langner 0

The same day he also contested four consultation games at the Franklin Chess Club. Dake won all three of these, with the exception of the game where he met Sharp, Weiner and Levin in consultation. This game resulted in a draw after most interesting play, especially at the ending, where the Philadelphians were down a pawn, but by a splendid combination forced the draw. The game is published this week.
