Dear Jean Michel,

The Benares Sanskrit College 1911 catalogue also does not include any 
pūrvamīmāṃsā manuscripts. I was first curious to see if the Nyāyakaṇikā 
manuscript reported in the 1888 (?) catalogue would also appear there, but did 
not find it. I expect that another volume may have been planned in 1911, but 
was not published.

You will find here a reference to the earlier catalogue: 
https://www.oeaw.ac.at/resources/Record/990002234850504498/Details . I have not 
seen any soft copy of this catalogue on line, and I have a Xerox copy of only 
the title page and the page for the Nyāyakaṇikā manuscript.

Theodor Aufrecht cites this ms  as Ben 30 on page 534 of Catalogus Catalogorum 
(1891).
