The Chess World appears to have ceased publication after the last issue of volume 4, i. e. after the March 1869 issue, although no statement to this effect has been found. This tourney presumably ended at the same time.

It was probably known before hand that publication would at least be interrupted, as the solutions of the problems printed in that last issue (prb. 69–72) are found in the same issue, while they normally would have been printed one or two months later. (There are some complicating factors as the solutions appear to cover problems that were not actually included in the issue.)
