The Boilermakers have been strenghtened of late having secured several new men who play a very fast game and they are expected to give the Colts there hands full to win.

"With the score 5 to 3 in their favor, Overall weakened and, aided by luck, the reds grabbed an eleventhhour victory by a score of 6 to 3 and shoved the champions from first place down into third. The cubs tonight refuse to admit defeat and still are trying to whistle up hopes, but it looks as if the unpected turn of the wheel has put them out of the race for the pennant for good unless New York and Pittsburg both jplip.

Muncie, Sept. 30. Emanuel Lasker of New York retains his title as chess champion of the world. Today he won with surprising rapidity the sixteenth and last game in his contest against Dr. Tarrasch of Nuremburg. Of the sixteen games played Tarrasch won three, and five games were drawn. Dr. Tarrasch played the white today and opened with a Ruy Lopez, which, however, developed into the four knights' game. There was something of a struggle on the queens side, but the Nuremburg master was finally forced to sacrifice a rook, and this cost him the game and the match.
