BARRY DISPLAYS FORM IN Y.M.C.A. CHESS CONTEST
Another simultaneous chess exhibition was given at the Y.M.C.A. on Friday evening when P. Barry of the Winnipeg Chess club, played All Comers.
A good number availed themselves of the opportunity of meeting this fine player and in all fifteen games were played.
Mr. Barry spent a very strenuous evening and the quality of his play can be judged from the fact that he won no fewer than eleven games, losing only three and drawing one.
The three successful players, in each case after a hard struggle, were Messrs. Hughes, Rheubottom and Cook.
The following is the complete score:

P. Barry 1, E. H. Williams 0.
