Because of his success in a recently concluded tournament of the St. Petersburg Chess Club for the championship of St. Petersburg for 1911, E. A. Snosko-Borowski, an officer who has seen service in Manchuria, and has also been in several international tournaments, is a strong favorite among Russians as delegate to the New York Congress, along with Rubinstein, in case Dr. Bernstein is unable to play. It is true that Dus-Chotimirski, the noted expert who defeated both Dr. Lasker and Rubinstein in the tournament of 1909, tied for first place with Snosko-Borowski, but the latter was victorious in their personal encounter. Moreover, of the five games they have played together in important tournaments Chotimirski lost all except the one in the international tournament of 1909, when Snosko-Borowski, as one of the managers, was overloaded with work. In the third, fourth and fifth national tournaments Snosko-Borowski was placed higher than Chotimirski.
With the exception of Rubinstein, Dr. Bernstein, Alekhine and Nimzowitsch, practically all of Russia's leading experts played for the St. Petersburg championship. Thirty-six, divided into four sections, started. In addition to the winners, who scored 5½ points each in the final tourney among the eight group leaders, Loewenfisch and von Freymann, each 5, Maljutin, Platz, Hellbach and Tschepurnow were placed in the order named. Snosko-Boroski was prepared to play off with Chotimirski, but the latter had planned a tour and requested a postponement. At the suggestion of President Saburoff, the first and second prizes were divided.
