* I had the impression that by 1897 the Gringmuth code had become

No, Gilliam does not mention this particular notation by name. I
merely mentioned his publications as a prelude to the cable match
discussion, as well as the interesting form of notation created by Mr.
Reichhelm.
I know the Gringmuth code was created in 1886 and the cable matches
were from 1895 to 1911, but my literature does not specify the
notation used in these events. I will research this further.
Thanks
