CHESS TOURNEY
TENTH ROUND. (IT TELEGRAPH— PRESS ASSOCIATION.) . AUCKLAND, This Day. At the Chess Congress the tenth round commenced this morning, the pairings and openings selected being as follows :—: — Hicks v. Myers (Ginoco piano) ; Moore v. Wingfield (Petroff defence) ; Dodd v. Stewait (Ginoco piano) ; Gyles v. Miles (French defence) ; James v. Grierson (queen's gambit declined) ; Mason v. Davies (queen's pawn game) ; Barnes v. Severne (Ruy v Lopez) ; Kelling, a bye. At the luncheon adjournment the only game finished was that of Dodds V. Stewart. Stewart neglected the first essential in chess development, and foolishly went pawn-chasing. The result was that when Dodds's attack was ready it found Stewart unprepared. Dodds mated him on the 26th move.
