No official information is known about this tourney; information
comes from secondary sources.
The number of prizes and honorary awards (if any) is not definitely known:
while one source says
that Lehner won the first prize (implying that there probaby is a
second prize), another source only says that he won the prize.
Lehner's own account from 1875 does not mention more than one prize.
Emil Feyerfeil (Schachzeitung, 19/5 (May, 1864),
p. 155, prb. 1775) and J. Berger (Schachzeitung, 19/6 (June, 1864), p. 210,
