Participants
William Eno, Edward Olly, C T Thompson, James Park, Luke Broughton, David Finlay, George Murray, Robert Bonn, Arthur Souweine, and E. Loesser.

Notes
Edward Loesser, a diamond merchant (born 1839.02.09 Germany; died 1922.10.11 New York). His son, Ernest Loesser, a diamond cutter (born 1873.08.12 New York; died 1932 Montana). An "E. Loeser" is listed as a participant in Steinitz's simultaneous performance given on 1887.10.20 where Loeser essayed an Evans and lost, so in all probability the chess player was the father and not the son.
