Notes: |
Only partial results available. This was a 16-player tournament, and judging from the information that Euphrat won after defeating four players, it was probably a knock-out tournament. The International Chess Magazine gives only the results of Euphrat, and the names of 15 of the 16 players. The other 10 players whose names are given are H.W. Bettmann, F.C. Miller, Wm. Landsberg, H. Strasburg, D.W. Rhodes, M. Bachrach, L. Odebrecht, W.H. Ripley, J.W. Ballard, and Dr. J.C. Reeve. |
