Note on Prohhni No. !». — My decision last niiuitli liiat 

 the duals in this problem were different duals, because 

 they resulted in different mates, was, perhaps, too hasty. 

 As a matter of fact, the stipulation as to the Chess- Editor 

 being the sole judge as to repeated duals was intended 

 i-atlier to apply to the case of a (bial in one variation, and 

 the same dual plus a triple in another But the argument 

 in the present case that the dual continuations are the 

 same (the solver having nothing to do with third moves) 

 seems unanswerable. I must e.xpress, therefore, mv 

 regrets to W. Jay, J. W. Dawson, and H. Myers, for 

 having to deduct the extra point scored to them last 

 month. 



AVith regard to the judging of the problems, I expect 

 that it will be found necessary to invite the co-operation 

 of those solvers who fail in one problem only, with 

 jierhajis the stipulation, in fairness to the composer, that 

 the unsolved problem in each case shall be ]>laced high on 

 the list of the judge who was defeated by it.

CHESS INTELLIGENCE. 



The prize-winners in the International Tournament at 

 Hanover, concluded on August llth, are : — 



1. D. Jauowski,. ]3i 



2. H. N. Pillsburv 12' 



3. H.K.Atkins 11 i 



4. J. Mieses ll" 



.5. .1. N. Napier 1 



J. Wolf j ^^ 



7. M. Tchigorin 9 



8. Dr. Olland Sf 



The other competitors were F. J. Marshall, J. Mason, 

 I. Gunsberg, C. V. Bardeleben, Cohn, Suchting, Gottschall, 

 Lewin, Popiel, and Swiderski. It is only fitting that 

 Jauowski and Pillsbury shuukl fill the first two places, 

 but Mr. Atkins' position, only half a point behind Pillsbury, 

 in this his first appearance in a master-tournament, is a 

 most encouraging sign for English chess. M. Tchigorin 

 recovered somewhat after a very bad start, but Messrs. 

 Marshall. Gunsberg, Mason, and V. Bardeleben, played 

 much below their form. The entry was not nearly so 

 strong as had been expected, and a master-tournament 

 without Lasker, Maroczy, Tarrasch, Schlechter, Blackburne, 

 and Teichmann, cannot by any means be considered rejue- 

 sentative. Mr. E. Loman obtained 6t.h prize in t'le minor 

 tournament. He recently lost a match with Mr. C. H. 

 Sherrard by 4 games to 1, with one draw. 



It is probalile that the number of players in the North v. 

 South Correspondence Match next autumn will be increased 

 to l.'JO aside. The South have already found more than 

 this number of would-be competitors, and it is probable 

 that the Northerners will prove equally keen.
