Notes:
The American Chess Monthly of March 1892 (p.2) and the International Chess Magazine of Oct. 1891 (p.295, delayed in publication!) have 'L.A. Goldsmith' playing for the New York City Club in 1892; the Brooklyn Daily Eagle of 1 Jan. 1892 has 'O. Goldsmith'; the Brooklyn Daily Standard-Union of 30 Jan. 1892 has 'W.M. Goldsmith'; the New York Sun of 18 Jan. 1892 has 'H. Goldschmidt'. Louis A. Goldsmith was active in New York from 1869 to 1873 (at least). The Newark Sunday Call of 2 Apr. 1893 has 'E. Goldsmith' playing for New York against Newark in Mar. 1893, but this is likely O. Goldsmith, who was active in the New York City Club at the time.
