The fight was practically over, at noon. “The keen friendly rivalry for the honor of first entering the city re- sulted in the Americans and British going in neck and neck.” special Beymour’s Force Returning London, June 27.—Aspecial from Shanghai, dated last evening, says and before the sixth round was fin- ished the referee awarded the con- test to Boyd on a foul. This was a cause of deep regret to all Boyd's friends and to Boyd himself, who had refused a decision on a foul in the third round. All wished to see the six rounds finished and a decis- jon given on the merits of the con- test.
