Hongkong, Oct. 19.
Mr Pollock is playing Mr Danenborg for | the Championship Cup held by the latter. On Monday night, Mr Pullock on the first game. It is a happy omen for the success of the winter session of the club hat two challengers have come forward in October, and may prova an augtry that Letter and wore active days are in store for the chess club to atome for the dulluess from which it has sullered for the Inst twelvemonths.
At the annual meeting of the Yokohaun Chess Club, the Chairman (Mr J. T. Gritin), in addressing to meeting, endorsed the Secretary's opinion that if weald, perhaps, bo best to adjourn for a season, consider. ing the very socall interest taken by inen- bora during the last season. It was a cerious fut that chess of late had declined all over the East. Singapore and Hong- kong were doing very little, and Kobe and Tokio Clubs bad adjourned for an iude- finite period or ceased to exist.
Tho
not, no shall got some good chess this win- ter, for Janowski is to play Showalter and probably Pibabury also.
I believe la Janowski. Ho is an entirely different player from Lasker. They are the opposite Polca of Chess (ploaso noto tho pun), but now that Steinitz' day is passed and Charousek's is still ahead, sod Marocry han disappointed us, we have only Tarrasch and Tchigorits to reckon with. Tarrasch is elevor, and Tehigorîn ía steady,. but I am inclined to think that Janowell in the only real rival Laskar has to fear.
