Event data
Name: City Club Handicap Tournament
Place: New York
Start date: Dec. 1891
End date: Apr. 1892
 
Notes:
Only partial results available. I am guessing that this was a 37-player single-round all-play-all tournament, since scores given are out of 36. Halpern, Huntington, and Kemeny were in the first class. Nugent's handicap class is given in the Brookly Standard-Union of 2 Jan. 1892. I am only guessing that the odds for a class difference of 1 was Pawn and Move, but I can't compare players across classes without the full scores and handicap classes of all participants.
