Nothing daunted, the American side set to work in grim carnest, with the result that by the end of the sixth innings they once again stood on terms of equality with the "Dragons,”
་
The seventh innings was pro- ductive of no score and an extra innings produced no better result. In the ninth inninga, which com- menced in falling light, the Chinese, after retiring their op ponents for no score, gained the point which gave them victory.
It was an excellent game, and, had Burrell been relleved earlier, a different tale might have been written. Rullin, who took over the pitching from the fifth inniugs, conceded only a single in five 20 successive innings.
