{Das Superturnier des Jahres fand anlдsslich der Weltausstellung in Paris
statt und wurde in ьberlegener Manier von Lasker gewonnen. Zwei
Schцnheitspreise waren ausgesetzt (von Baron Albert von Rothschild). Einen
davon sicherte sich der Leipziger Jaques Mieses, der ob seines schneidigen
Angriffsstils gefьrchtet war, doch fьr groЯe Turniersiege reichte es bei ihm
