Chess 20 Jul 1913, Sun The San Francisco Call (San Francisco, California) Newspapers.com
Wednesday evening a match game at 30 moves an hour was arranged with Stasch Mlotkowski, the well known expert, 1912 champion of the Franklin Chess club of Philadelphia. Marshall won the toss for color and resorted to his pet Danish. Mlotkowski defended skillfully and seemed to be working up a strong counter attack. However, on his sixteenth move, NxP, he made a slip which allowed Marshall to score a brilliant win on his twenty-first move. Both players consumed about 45 minutes.
GAME DEPARTMENT
Marshall was in splendid form on the occasion of his first simultaneous exhibition at the Mechanics institute July 1. Here are two spirited games played that evening. Professor Bernstein holds the master to a draw, and young Epsteen (brother of Dr. H. Epsteen of San Rafael) plays with commendable judgment and just misses a draw. Mashall's game with Mlotkowski at Los Angeles is included. To complete the selection the Janowski-Capablanca game from the recent Havana tourney, with interesting notes by Lasker, is printed; and a sparkling brilliancy from a Monte Carlo tourney (Marshall vs. Mortimer):
