history

The tournament was played on match billiards with a 45 cm mark on the cadre fields. It was the third FSFAB World Championship held in the United States. Because a European played in each of these tournaments, the Americans dubbed the tournaments as a world championship. The results were taken from the New York Times , which documented all games. Other sources did not give the same results. The winner was the American J. Ferdinand Poggenburg after a game against his compatriot Charles Frederick Conklin. Places three to five were also decided by trick games.

The whole tournament was played in the round robin system up to 400 points.
