Bicycles, Fittings and Tires Ruined by Thousands. = 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 time to escape. | 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. H The contents, which were 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 tis 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. sec. STOLE FROM HIS PARTNERS. Embezzlement Forces a Big Cleveland House to the Wall. The big wholesale boot and shoe house of Childs, Groff & Co., at 82 and 84 Bank strect, Cleveland, Ohio, was forced to the wall late yesterday afternoon by the embezzlement of a lasge 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. Sees 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’ trial 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. PLAYING BY CABL International Chess Match in Lon- don and Broo 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- {can players sssembled 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 Hotel, 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 uf the names of the players and the order in which they are to play resulted as follows: Gieat Britain. Blackburne . Burn “Bird Tinsley Locock Miles Atkins . Jackson . The Brocklyn Chess Club has issued 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 feceived giving the first moves of the British players. 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. Boards. Another Excecdingly Close Finish at the Skating Rink. The most exciting skating race of the wee't took place at the Convention Hail 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 he 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 spesdy man on a straight-away course, as his records will show. The men started with Donozhue 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 yerds between him and his two competitors. Donoghue, how- ever, would not have it that way and spurted out after him, the pair leaving Moshier haii a lap behind. Donoghue foolishly set the pace about the tw eth lap, and on the twenty-third lap Dav@lson made a spurt at the corner, ard although Donoghue did isis 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. a ‘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, end 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 eftor and at one time it seemed as though h was going to knock several seconds off the time, but he weakened slightly toward the end, and made it in just 9.02. This, how- ever, is the championship record for indoor tracks for that distance. This was Davig- son’s first appearance before an evening audience, and he appeared to good advan- tage, and will probably make one cf the fastest skaters the ice has ever seen, as he is but eighteen years old. Yesterdiy 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 ill have a trial at the world’s record of 38 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 Moshicr, 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 chis 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 CONGRESS 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 members, 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-flve moves. The score now stands: Showalter, 4; Kemeny, 2; drawn, 1. The next gamewill be played Monday, a change having been 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 heii 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 ab: “I beg to acknowledge the receipt of a certified copy of the preamble and resolu- tions passed at the adjourned meeting of the New York Yacht :Club on February My opinion as to the desirability of con- tinuing a member of the New York Yacht club was expresséd ini my letter of resigna- n of the 19th. The resolutions of February 27 were those of expulsion. Gans Did Not Fight Erne. The 12-round bout which was to have taken “place at the New Manhattan Club, ih New York, last night, between Frank Erne of Buffalo and Joseph Gans. of Balu- more, has been declared off. According ,4o- agreement, they were 4o weigh in at 128 pounds. Gans weighed 135 pounds. and Erne 123. Paddy Purtel of Kansas City got the de- cision over Nick Burley of Bosion, in, the seventh round, Burley being very groggy. Local boxers filled the rest of the New Manhattan Athletic Club's program.

American Arrested by the Spanish. United States:Commissioner Shields at New York has been informed that the Spanish authorities in Cuba have arrested Oliverio Agramante, a raturalized Ameri- can citizen, manager of the Jurague estate, near St. Forcenguies, who is suspected of being an insurgent, and that a military court-martial was pending in his case. His friends are afraid that the prisoner will be shot. They were told te make their ap- peal by telegraph to Seeretary of State Ol- ney, and he would probably interfere. ——_—_+e+. ~ Patents Allowed.
