changed on the first board , while on the
second hoard only a bishop was exchanged
for a 1 < lght. On board No. 3 the game was
not much developcd and the same applies

When play ceased al 6:30 : o'cloclt only one
game was finished , Its result being a draw ,
and the otherames were left In such u
doubtful state when play was stopped that !
n decision was considered ImpossIble. When
Lasker was asked at London to adjudicate
upon these games he proposed that the
match be called a draw . as the adjudicating
of the remaining guinea could not be satisfactory -
factor to either club. The proposition was
' accepted and the match declared drawn.

LNDON , March ! -A large number of
chess amateurs assembled today In the Victoria -

rated with white , and gold. I was the
same ball In which the famous International
tournament In 16 was played , At 3:45 : p.
m. Llslu'r , the referee , drew for the move
nnl , after the names or the players were
exchanged , tt was the opinion of all those
present that the teams were welL matched.
The Players lat down al separate tnbtes

the middle of the hal u table with ten
chess boards were placed so as to give the
spectators a chance 10 follow the progress

prevailed here thlt tile play of both sides
was very cautious on nil boards , Mich
dlsappolnlment , however , was evinced as
time passed , for It was seen thai the games
conld not possibly be alight out. Secretary
Byrne said all were very well salsle,1 wih

see that more time should have been given ,
The experlmenl however was a good one
and will 'ertainlv result In un-

city , hate last night. The robbers , of whom
there were three , got nOlhlng
The first news of lh holdup was brought
10 Stockton by n brakeman on lie lraln
lie came on the Oregon express , which
pased through Stockton short ) after the
European Mail and backed Into Stockton
from the scene of robbery. lie said : ll
was 10:20 : o'clock and In the neIghborhood or
Caste Switch hint the train came 10 n stop
I was In one of the rear cars and thinkIng -
Ing II was a holdup got oft Immediately When
I reached ( lie ground I heard several shots anti
Instantly started back to fag the Oregon
express , which I knew would be coming
along soon , I mel the express a short
distance from lie city limits anti came baclt
I 110 not know whether the robbers got any
money or nOl "
The expreES was held unt a posse of
ocers could he forme\ The train pulled
out shortly after mldnlghl with the ( omeers
who Intelled 10 gel oft In the ( neighborhood
ot the robbery amid scour ( lie country for
the robbers. Wor,1 hnl already been received -
celnt by the telegraph' operator that the
robbers , after maltng their attempt , had
Iletached time engine and started toward Lodi
on It all had abandoned It before reaching
that town ,
Full particulars of ( lie robbery were received -
ceived here by telephone shortly after the (
express train had lef The engine of the
mal pul\ into LOl about 1 :05 : II. in. , very
slowly , with no one aboard and registerIng
hut forty pounds of steam George Andrews ,
the engineer of a freight rain lying there
waitIng for the overland to pass , got aboard
and stopped her. A stick of dynamite was
fount on the seat In the cab and II was ap-
11arent there hind been a holdup Lodt
officers took the engine of the freight train
and sent II after the ' train that belonged to
the unmanned en lne. They got bock 10
Lodi with the train al 12:15 : a. m. and I
proceeded norlhward wIth Its own enelne
The story of the holdup us told ( by En-
gineer Ingles of the mal train Is as follows :
"A short dIstance south of Caste Switch
myself and Fireman house were startled by
a man who crawled over the lender , and ,
pointing a pistol al our heads , ordered us
10 stop the traIn lie was masked , I stopped
Ito engine all the fellow then ordered us to
get off , whIch we did Two other masked
men were standIng on lie ground waIting to
receive us They orderci us 10 walk back
to the express car , they telling me to Instruct -
struct the messenger tO t open the door , as
they had dynamite anti would blow up the
car If the door was npl opened , I old lhe
messenger this and he opened time door and
then shut I again , after which he fred two
shots al the ( robbers. ' passenger stuck his
head out of the window land one of the
robbers fred a shot at him The men threal-
enet again 10 blow lJe , car to pieces with
dynamie I I was "Cl opened and the ex-
press messenger lien complell with their
demands TIle men got'slde , taking us
wih them , and ransacked the car. All the
money was In the blgsae land they dId not
, try 10 open it. 'I t I
"They got nothing whatever. After sats-
Inl themselves that ther . was nothing of
value outside of the see and thai hint had
been securely locked they jumped out ot the
car and \ , tat ahead to' the engine again ,
taking UB with them.PReachlng ( the engine
the men uncoupled the engIne from the train
and , fining some shots at . tile passen et.cars' ,
to scare \ theIr occupante' , I suppose , pulled ,
the ( throttle all stnTted toward ' IJodi . A
brnltemen was sent back 10 Stockton to fag
the Oregon express which was soon to cOlpe
along and we waited until the engine came
from Lodl , "
Dy midnight plans were made for the pur-
suit of the bandits . 'i posse was gathered
quIckly and the veteran sheriff of the county ,
who was absent al the state capital , was
brought with an additional force of ocers
on a special engine. With ( lie aid of two
bloodhounds belonging to the sheriff the
offiCers are confident of strlkllg lie trail of
the robbers soon.
Th scene of the ijttempteci robbery Is
.temptell
level and for the most nart under cultIvatIon.
Alongside the track it 18 - swampy luJI."lon anti it I
probable the bandits escaped by a good road ,
especially as they ( hall a horse and buggy.
When the train was stopped and the engIneer
and fireman forced 10 go to the express car
the bandits flrtd repeatedly toward the pas-
senger coach os a warntng to InquisItive
travelers A tromp , who was stealing a ride
on the blind baggage , Is the only person who
can give a description , other than general , of
any of time robbers. He slated that at Loli ,
when Ito train stopped , he saw one of the
robbers wIthout hts mask on The fellow
felow
spoke to lhe tramp and told him If he opened
his heat he would lose I The tramp kepi
stIll , but he noted the robber who had Issued
the waring was about I feel 10 Inches In
height all that he wore a black coat , woolen
shirt and blue necktie. The tramp was
made to walk 10 the express car with tIme
engineer and lie freman , lie heard one of
time robbers say thai they bad a buggy In
which they could rIde off after leaving the
engine. I Is explained that the reason why
tle robbers made no attempt 10 open the
safe was time short time at their dlsposat
The Oregon express was only one hour behInd -
hInd and they had to finish the ( job before
that train approached or run great risk ot
beinG caplured.
A large number ot men are still out
searching for the men who held up the
Southern Pacific mal train lt Castle Switch
last night. Sheriff Cunningham states that
he has every available avenue of escape
guarded anti he believes that thO men will
be captured , There are believed to be tour
