| Notes: |
| Di Felice dates this tournament to May 1894. Gillam, in the Quarterly for Chess History, gives dates as approximately June 4 to June 8. However, the London Daily News of 4 Jun. 1894 (p.4) says it took place 'last week', and describes the play from Monday to Saturday (i.e., 28 May to 2 Jun.). |
