  MissScarlett: Probably Steinitz's last game on record. He returned to New York in October.

<Steinitz's comeback>

From my Arnold Schottlaender game collection:

[Event "Casual Game"]
[Site "Breslau"]
[Date "1903.10.16"]
[White "Steinitz, Jul."]
[Black "Schottlaender, Arnold"]
[Result "1-0"]
[ECO "C63"]
[Source "Deutsche Schachblätter 1909 no. 5, p. 67"]

Master Schottlaender may well have foreseen the following 'problem like' finish, but he can do nothing more...

15. Nh5 Bg4 16. Bxf6 Bxd1 17. Bxg7+ Ke8 18. Nf6# 1-0

<Jean Defuse>

Could "Steinitz, Jul." be this person here?

===============

There appear to be a great number of hits for Julius Steinitz on google though.

The one I posted here was alive in 1903 at least.

There are much more comprehensive results for "Julius Steinitz" on Ancestry dot com, but I cannot access the data because there is a pay wall: https://www.ancestry.com.au/search/...

Possibly <Tabanus> might help us on that kind of search.
