At a special mosting of representatiyan of chess organizations at the British Chess Club on Friday, Oct 21, it was resolved that the great International tournament in London next year should be a two-round contest. This is a grave decision, and one not likely to meet with the unanimous ap proval either of the contestants or of the aliens public, to both of whom the long cambroumers of a double round tourney, with a largo number, of entries, is likely to be wearisoma.
