We have received the programme from which we learn that there will be first, an International Masters' Tourney, with 18 entrants at 25 marks each, the entries to be made to Herr W. Ottemann, of 7 Gretchenstrasse, Hanover, at latest by July 1st. Another 25 marks must also be paid as caution money, which will be returned if the player carries out all his games. Each competitor to play one game daily with every other, at a time-limit of 30 moves in the first two hours, and 15 moves an hour afterwards. Adjourned games must be finished before the close of the tournament. There will be eight prizes, the first being that of the German Chess Association and consisting of 1200 marks. The second will be 900 marks, third 600, fourth 400, fifth 300, sixth 250, seventh 200, and eighth 150 marks. There will also be two prizes for the prettiest games; the first, 300 marks, presented by Baron Rothschild of Vienna; and teh second, a silver cup, value 100 marks, the gift of the Court jeweller, Herr C. Lameyer, of Hanover."(1) Brilliancy Prizes 1st 300M to Napier for Von Bardeleben vs W Napier, 1902 (Rothschild prize) 2nd Silver Cup worth 100M to Olland for Olland vs H Wolf, 1902 (Lameyer prize) Notes Harry Nelson Pillsbury, during a rest day in the international tournament of Hanover (1902), gave a blindfold simultaneous exhibition against 21 players of master strength, who could consult with other players and analyze on the board. Up to then, no chess master had dared to give a simultaneous exhibition under these conditions. After almost 12 hours of struggle with the opponents, Pillsbury passed the test perfectly with a score of +3 -7 =11. Source (1) British Chess Magazine, v22 n5, May 1902, pp223-224.

What game is missing, and why? Intro makes no mention. Jul-06-16    zanzibar: BTW- <Calli> was nice enough to provide a link to the TB: http://hdl.handle.net/2027/njp.3210... Jul-06-16    Pawn and Two: <zanzibar> The missing game, Chigorin - Mason, was added as an addendum, "Nachtrag", near the end of the tournament book, on p. 176, game 286. May-14-17    MissScarlett: The missing game is Janowski vs J Mason, 1902. Sep-06-18    jnpope: According to the <Pittsburgh Daily Post>, 15 Feb 1903, Page 12, Tarrasch awarded the two brilliancy prizes: 1st, 300 Mark (courtesy Rothschild) to Napier for Bardeleben-Napier; 2nd, Silver Cup worth 100 Mark (courtesy Lameyer) to Olland for Olland-Wolf. Dec-31-18    JimNorCal: H E Atkins had a fine result! Nov-23-20    FSR: Wow, this is crazy. Google Translate has somehow gotten the idea to do its thing on this page on my computer. It is accordingly displaying <Mieses> as <Lousy>, which is apparently more or less the English translation of the German word <Mieses>. Took me a minute to figure out what the hell was going on. Nov-23-20    perfidious: <FSR>, whenever I have a page displayed in such-and-such language, a popup appears asking whether I want to translate it as a one-off, or always perform the translation. Best guess is that you inadvertently clicked on 'always translate' when it appeared.
