1)Prince Dadian of Mingrelia was NOT a Russian candidate for the Bulgarian crown in 1887. That honor was given to his brother, Prince Nikolai of Mingrelia.
2) It distorts things to say that Dadian payed Chigorin not to play. It would be more accurate to say that Dadian refused to remain part of the tournament, physically and financially, if Chigorin had been allowed to participate. Chigorin, who had traveled to Monte Carlo in good faith, was expediently removed from the list. Dadian payed him the $1500 in compensation.
