War Spoils Chess.
The European war has created havoc with the continental chess players and their schedules. Five hundred and eighty-four members of the German Chess association have been called to arms according to latest reports. Fifty-nine of these have been decorated with the Iron Cross, thirty-two killed, and fifty-five wounded. The German master Spielmann was among those called to arms while engaged in a tourney at Vienna. The captain, when told that Spielmann was a famous chess player assigned him to a fortress artillery regiment.
The interned Russian players who were captured by the German military authorities at the international tourney at Mannheim, are still busy playing chess at Baden-Baden where they are quartered. A match for a prize offered by the Russian master Alechine who escaped, was first played and next the eight Russian players engaged in two tournaments.
