Events in chess in 1900: ==News== * The American team wins the Anglo-American cable match for the second consecutive year with the score 6–4. The top board game between Harry Pillsbury (USA) and Joseph Henry Blackburne (UK) is a draw as is the second board between Jackson Showalter (USA) and Francis Joseph Lee (UK). US Champion Frank Marshall loses a drawn game due to a time-keeping error. The US fails to start Marshall's clock when he cables a draw offer on his move, and Marshall loses on time. (The proper procedure is to transmit a move along with the draw offer to start the opponent's clock.) * World Champion Emanuel Lasker wins the Paris tournament, ahead of Harry Pillsbury, Géza Maróczy and Frank Marshall. The tournament is held as part of the Exposition Universelle. * Richard Teichmann wins the London tournament. * Carl Schlechter wins the tournament at Vienna. * First place at the German Chess Congress in Munich is shared by Maróczy, Pillsbury, and Schlechter. * S.
