There was a remarkable scene outside
of the Mansion House early this after.
noon. On the receipt of the alarming
reports something resembling a groan
was uttered by the hundreds of people
assembled, and then some one started
to sing the national anthem. All heads
were barred, and in moment the crowds
were singing "God Save the Queen"
with fervor proving how earnestly
they wish for her recovery. The pas
sengers in passing carriages, cabs and
omnibuses joined in the singing, the
drivers reverently dotfing their hats.

Scenes and Incidents In and Around
the Death Chamber.
LONDON, Jan. 22-1:40 P. M.-The
gloomy faces of the crowds necessarily
approaching the bulletin board at the
Mansion House indicate how little the
public hope to receive better news of
the condition of the queen. All ages
and conditions of women and even chill
dren are content to spend a long time in
waiting their turn to get within reading
distance of the board.
AS the throng moves slowly past the
notice board those who are unable TO
get there personally are sending mes
senger boys with notebooks and pencils
to bring the text Of everything posted.
The grief Of all is evident Never were
there so many black ties in the city be-
fore the actual arrival of time of gen.
eral mourning, and nobody mingling
with the crowds can doubt for a mo-
ment that every body in them has keen
personal interest in the queens condi-
ton.
Mr.. Balfour, the first lord of the treas
ury, and the children of the Duchess of
Connaught have started for Osborne.
Mr.. Balfour, it is said, goes as the rep
resentative of the premier, Lord Sails

and the Connaught children is regarded
as indicating that the end of Queen
Victoria is fast approaching.
