This tournament was played in the Grand Hotel Royal. The tempo was 50 moves in 2:30 then 1 hour for every 20 moves. Here are the detailed results. I believe this was O’Kelly first foray abroad; he didn’t do half bad. Dunkelblum, too, did quite well, but the two lower boards lacked experience. Almost all information I have comes from [1], but three extra games were dug op from [2] and [3].
