The Pope Manufacturing Company's building, on Columbus avenue, Boston, was gutted by fire shortly before 4 o'clock yes- terday afterncen. The block was a mag- nificent five-story structure of brick, pro- fusely ornamented with terra cotta trim- mings. The blaze started in the boiler room in the basement of the building, and spread so | rapidly that four ladies and two gentlemen, who were taking riding lessons on the fifth floor. had barely ‘ape. R. W. Hinckley, private secretary to Mr. Albert Pope, and the janitor, W. P. Preston, | were hemmed in by smoke and fire on the | second floor, and made their escape by lad- | ders placed’ there by the firemen. In the building were thirty-five or forty persons, but they all escaped without injury. 1 The contents, which re ruined, consisted of 1,700 new wheels, 175 second-hand wheels, and about 20,000 pieces of bicycle fittings, besides several thousand tires. The Pope Company has a loss on its stock and fixtures conservatively estimated at 150,000, and $200,000 on the building. The loss is fully covered by insurance. The Youths’ Companion building, one of the most imposing structures in the city, which ts separated from the burned building by a fifteen-foot alley, and the Hoffman House, a seven-story apartment house across the street, were thoroughly drenched. Is STOLE FROM HIS PARTNERS. | Embezzlement Forces a Big Cleveland House to the W: The big wholesale boot and shoe house of Childs, Groff & Co., at 82 and 84 Bank street, Cleveland, Ohio, was forced to the wall late yesterday afternoon by the embezzlement of a large sum of money by William H. Huntington, the junior member and finan- cial man of the firm. Childs. Groff & Co. is one of the oldest firms in that city, and has always been considered as solid as a rock. The embezzlement was first discovered a day or two since, and when Huntington was confronted with the charge he confessed that he had taken $40,000 of the firm's money. It is believed that the amount will reach $100,000. He said he had been taking money for twenty-five years, and that most of it had been used in the payment of his household expenses. Mr. Childs is completely prostrated, and for a time his life was despaired of. He and Mr. Groff are ruined: ——~+-e+ Another Battle Ship. The United States navy will soon be strengthened by the addition of another powerful war vessel. Tuesday next the battle ship Massachusetts will sail from Cramp’s ship yard at Philadelphia on her builders’ tridl trip. As the trial is for the private information of the Cramp Com- pany, no guests will be aboard, nor will the government be officially represented on the trip by any navy officers. The trial will be made over the course always used by the Cramps in the unofficial tests of their ships. This course is between the two lightships anchored about twenty miles off the Delaware capes, and the distance is a trifle short of ten knots. ‘e PLAYING BY CABLE International Chess Match in Lon- don and Brooklyn. BEST MEN ON EACH SIDE ENGAGED Arrangements for Showing the Progress of the Contest. GENERAL SPORTING NEWS NEW YORK, March 13.—The great inter- national chess match between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and the Unitea States of America began today. Each team consists of eight men. The Amer- ican players <ssembled in the Assembly Hall of the building at Court and Remsen Streets, Brooklyn, while the Britishers met at the Pillar rooms of the Cannon Street Hatel, London. The first dispatch from London announced the numbers of the boards on which the Americans and those on which the British- ers would have the first move. The ex- change of the names of the players and the order in which they are to play resulted as follows Gieat Britain. Blackburne Burn s Boards. 1 American. Pillsbury. . -Delmar. Jackson 8. -Baird. The Brooklyn Chess Club has tssued a general invitation to the members of the leading clubs in the east to witness the play of the American team. The moves will be transmitted by Atlan- tic cable. and will be exhibited here by im- mense chess boards, suspended upon the wall, movable chess figures thereon ind!- cating the shifting fortunes of each game, so that spectators may judge of the issue of the match at-each moment of its pro- gress. The first moves, on which the Americans had the whites, were cabled to London at 10 o'clock, and about the same time a mes- sage was received giving the first moves of the British players. e The dispatches ran along smoothly and moves were exchanged at the rate of six in an hour. Some mistakes occurred in transmitting the first moves on boards 2 and 3, which, however, were soon rectified. The opering presented nothing unusual, with the exception that Blackburne ac- cepted queen's gambit from Pillsbury. DONOGHUE BARELY BEATEN. Another Excecdingly Close Finish at the Skating Rink. The most exciting skating race of the wee't took place at the Convention Hall ice rink last night, when Harley Davidson beat Joe Donoghue in a two-mile and a half race in 7.31%. Moshier also entered, but dropped out on the sixteenth lap on account of being left so far behind. Moshier does not seem to be able to get up his speed on an indcor sur- face and this may in some measur2 account for his defeats here this week. He is an ex- tremely spe2dy man on a straight-away course, as his records will show. ‘The men started with Donoghue in the lead and then Moshier forging to the front. Harley Davidson was in the rear, but on the | eleventh lap made a magnificent spurt that threatened to put many yards between him his two competitors. Donoghue, how- r, would not have it that way and spurted oat after him, the pair leaving Moshier hati a lap behind. Donoghue feolishly set the pace about the twentieth’ lap, and on the twenty-third lap Davidson made a spurt at the corner, ard although Donoghue did iis level best, he could never get more than even with him. On the last lap’ Davidson made one final effort and came out ahead by not more than two feet. ‘All this time the immense crowd was keep- ing up an enthusiastic cheering that threat- ened the roof, and when Davidson was an- nounced the winner the din was indescrib- able. ‘The judges of the race were Messrs. Peters, Phillips and Storey; the timers, Messrs. Hutchins and Brower, and the start- er, Manager Towers. At $ o'clock last night John Davidson started to lower the world’s record of for three miles. He made a game effort, and at one time it seemed as though he was going to knock several seconds off the time, but he weakened slightly toward the end, and made it in just 9.92. This, how- ever, is the championship record for indoor tracks for that distance. This was David- son’s first appearance before an evening audience, and he appeared to good advan- tage, and will probably make one of the fastest skaters the ice has ever seen, as he is but eighteen years old. : Yesterdsy afternoon Wise, the champion of Long Island, gave Harry Stites, the champion cf the District and Maryland, half a lap handicap, and beat him out by a quarter of a lap in a mile in 3.11. Stites did not seem to be in the best condition, and Wise had no trouble in catching up with him. This evening at 8 o'clock John Davidson will have a trial at the world’s record of 238 for the mile, now held by Joe Don- oghue. He is confident he can do as well, and will put all his energy into the ten laps, in order to equal it, if he cannot beat it. The race at 9 o'clock will be for three miles, and will be between Moshier, Donoghue and Harley Davidson. There is every indication that it will be exceedingly close and exciting, as Donoghue is deter- mined to retrieve himself for his defeat last night, and will probably try to run away from his competitors. If he should try this one of the prettiest races of the season will ensue, as Harley Davidson is equally determined not to let him get out of his reach. = WHIST ESS CONTESTS.

JOCKEY CLUB RULES. for fours, New Amendments Proposed by Stew- ards and Adopted. The Jockey Club yesterday, in New York, elected William C, Eustis, Cornelius Fel- lows and W. P. Thompson, son of the late Col, W. P. Thompson, as menibers. The amendments proposed by the stewards Were adopted. Among them are the fol- lowing: “Any owner or trainer running horses and any jockey riding the horses at any unrecognized meeting shall be disqualified, as shall also the horses. “In the event of the death of the real owner of a horse, the name as registered may be reissued to surviving partners. “Any accidental error or violation of the rules in an entry may be corrected on the Payment of a fine of $10 for each entry be- fore the number of the horse is exhibited for that race, or in a handicap before the weights are announced.” Rule 122 now reads “When owners divide they shall divide equally all the moneys and other prizes which any of them could take if the dead heat were run off, but owners cannot divide in a race of heats or where division would conflict with its conditions.” Rule 127, third paragraph, has been so amended as to provide that horses starting may be claimed for the selling price, plus the valve of the stakes or purse to the win- ner, by the owners of horses running in the race. Rule 149 says: “An apprentice license for boys never having ridden in a race may be granted upon application of an owner or trainer. A boy having ridden twenty races under such license shall make application for a Jockey’s license.” Showalter Again Wins. The seventh game of the Showalter-Kem- eny championship match began Wednes- day in Philadelphia. Showalter selected the Ruy Lopez and the game proceeded on somewhat similar lines as the fifth. The game was evenly contested up to the twenty-sixth move, when Showalter gain- ed some advantage. At the hour of ad- Journment forty-six moves had been mad+ The game was concluded yesterday after a total of nine hours’ play. Showalter won in sixty-five moves. The score now stands: Showalter, 4; Kemeny, 2; drawn, 1. The next game will be played Monday, a change having bean made in the schedule in order to allow Showalter to play in the international cable: match at Brooklyn to- morrow. Ending the Dunraven Incident. Lord Dunraven presided at a meeting yes- terday of the Yacht Racing Association in London In an informal conference Sel beforehand the conclusion was reached that it would be in bad taste to reply to the New York Yacht Club regarding the ex- pulsion of Dunraven. The meeting did not take up the subject. Lord Dunraven mailed the following to Secretary Oddie of the New York Yacht Be Club was expressed in my letter of resigna- tion of the 19th.” The resolutions of February 27 were those of expulsion. Gans Did Not Fight Erne. The 12-tound bout which was to have taken place at the New Manhattan Club, in New York, last night, between Frank Erne of Buffalo and Joseph Gans of Balti- more, has been declared off. According to agreement, they were to weigh in at 128 pounds. Gans weighed 135 Erne 123. Paddy Purtel of Kansas City got the de- cision over Nick Burley of Boston -in the seventh round, Burley being very groggy. Local boxers filled the rest of the New Manhattan Athletic Club's program. pounds ant CYCLING IN ’FRISCO, ‘The Indoor.Half-Mile Record Broken by Ziegler.
