Galveston chess enthusiasts, of whom
there are quite a number, will have an
opportunity in a few days of entertaining
the chess masters of the state and may
at the same time add a few trophies to
their records in the shape of games won
against the strong players of Houston,
San Antonio, Fort Worth, Austin, Dallas
and other places.
Learning that the Texas Chess associa-
tion had manifested its purpose of com-
ing to Galveston for its next annual
meeting, Mr. W. A. Hogan of this city
proposed to the Elks lodge, No. 126, that
the lodge room be offered for the use of
the visiting disciples of Cassia. The
proposition was heartily agreed to and
the invitation was at once forwarded to
the president of the association. Yester-
day Mr .Hogan received a reply from Mr.
T. -E.; Lyons at San Antonio stating that
the meeting would be held here on July 4,
5 and 6, and that the San Antonio delega-
tion would be on hand promptly Tuesday
morning.
All chess players in the city are invited
to rileet this evening at 8.30 at the rooms
of the Young Men’s Christian association
and make such arrangements for the
coming meeting as will tend to make the
occasion one to be long remembered.
Quite a number have signified their inten-
tion of being on hand and those who are
behind the movement feel assured that
the visiting chess players will be given a
sample of hospitality such as Galveston
has made proverbial.
The Texas Chess association is of com-
paratively recent origin, but has members
in nearly every city in the state and its
annual meetings are occasions of rare
communion over the board. Mr. T. E.
Lyons of San Antonio is its president and
Mr. Otto Ballard of Houston its secret
tary.
Among the Galveston players who will
probably participate in the coming meet-
ing are Messrs. W. A. Hogan, Dr. E. D.
Chase, J. M. Murch, V. Fix, W. A. Zeigel-

The report of the autopsy held upon the
body of Frederick Toms, who died at the
Sealy hospital and for the death of whom
Police Officer S. Siercovich is held upon
a charge of manslaughter, Was furnished
to Coroner Fontaine by Dr. James J
Terrill, demonstrator of pathology at the
medical college, two days ago. The Tri-
bune published the verbal report of Dr.
Terrill the day Toms died but the formal
report is herewith published for the first
time. Accompaning the report is two
: pen diagrams of the skull showing the
fracture and other interesting features:
"At the request of Judge Sidney T.
Fontaine, an autopsy was performed on
the body of Fred Toms and the report is
as follows: ' ' ■
“The body is that of a(White male, about
5 feet 6 inches in height, weighs about
140 pounds, about 25 years old, well nour-
ished, well developed, is still "warm, no

The ring Is bent out

"Beginning about one inch to the right
of the median line on vertex of the skull

Weekly Target Practice of Galveston
Coast Artillery Significant.
Tomorrow morning the one or more
nominees for the target practice at San
Antonio on the Fort Sam Houston range
will be named from the local company of
coast artillery- A great amount of in-
terest is being taken in the coming com-
petition, not only among the men of the
company, but also among outsiders, ana
a large number of lookers-on are prom-
ised. The records for the past six months
or a year will be taken into consideration
in making the nominations, but the main
factor will be the record made tomorrow.
The nominees will have a chance for con-
siderable practice between now and the
time that the shoot is called for at San
Antonio. The Texas team leaves San
Antonio in time to arrive at Seagirt, N.
J., on Aug. 24. Two weeks will be taken
up at Fort Sam Houston, so that it leaves
a month and more between now and the
trip to San Antonio in which to get into
the best possible shape.
A large attendance of the members of
the company is wished for by the officers
and the chances are that 25 men or more
will turn out. The armory will be open
from 8 o’clock tomorrow morning and
uniforms and rifles may be had at the
earliest possible moment.
wound extends through the scalp to, but
not through the periosteum. The hair
is shaved from about the wound. From
examination of the wound no crepitus or
other evidence of fracture of the skull is
found.
“On sectioning of the scalp there is much
bleeding. The tissue to the right and be-
low the wound is edematous and infil-
trated with blood. On removing the skull
cap, the skull is very thin, especially on
the right side. Fractures in the skull
are shown in the accompanying diagrams.
They lie near and include the right part
of the coronal or fronto-parietal suture.
This suture is loosened for 4^ inches on
the right side. The fractures in the ex-
ternal table of the skull do not correspond
with those of the internal table and lie
in both parietal and frontal bones. On
the inner side there is a small plate like
fracture of the frontal bone. The base of
the skull is not fractured.
“Beneath the skull but outside the dura
mater is a large mass of dark red blood
clot. This extends over an area corre-
sponding to the temporal portion of the
parietal bone or the temporal fossa, it
begins two inches to the right of the med-
ianline and extends down to the squamuos
portion of the temporal bone. This clot
is about an inch thick in its thickest
part. It has compressed and flattened the
entire cerebrum over the anterior part
of parietal, the lower part of the frontal,
and almsot all the side of the temporal
lobe of the right cerebrum. The compres-
sion includes the lower part of the Ro-
landic area but to avery slight extent.
“There is no hemorrhage inside the
dura, nor is there any laceration of the
brain substance. The vessels of the brain
are full of blood,
nothing abnormal.
The cause of death having been found
the other organs were not examined.
“From the above I conclude that the
deceased came to his death from extra-
dural hemorrhage of the brain causing
compression on the brain. The hem-
orrhage was due ‘to the fracture of the
skull. The cause- of the fracture was
some external violence as from a blow on
the skull.
