SpecIAL DESPATCH TO THE EXAMINER.

RELIEF OF MAFEKING.

Loxpox, May 19.—A despatch of the Associated Press announcing the reli+f of Mafexing,was pested outside the Mansion House last evening, aud the news rapidly

spread. A great crowd collected.

The War office at 9 o'clock last night annosoced that 00 news bad been received, but at 9.40 the Lord Mayor announced the joyful news to the crowd outside.

The Lord Mayor briefiy addressed the assemblage saying: “i wish your eheers

could reach Mafekiog (here the cheere

were interupted by redoubled cgheeribg aad singing of Rule Britainnia) after whieh Lord Mayor remarked ‘‘we never doubted what iheeod would be, or that British pluck and courage would cosquor at last,”

The Lord Mayor ther led the crowd in singing “ God Save the Quecn” and

renewedcheers and waving of flags by the assembled multitude and singing of “ For he’s a juliy goud fellow,” the Mayor aad party retired.

From the mention of the laagers Pretor'a despatch, it is undersiood here that, prior to the raising of the seige of Mafeking, the Boer laagere around (het place were vigorously bombarded hy the British relief column, and that tie Burghers were practically compelled to abandon the seige.

The mass of peop'e outside the Mansion House grew to such dimensions that the police were compelled to divert ell the traffie of omnibusee, etc., through the

side streets. The cheerirg was incessant.

Later, special editions of the newspapere arrived and the tickers announced the news in all the public resorts.

lo the West End, the leading thoronugh- fares were greatly impeded by the con- stant etream of peopulace cheering them- selves hoarse.

The enthusiaem outrivaled the scenes which followed the relief of Ladysmith.

At the Foreign Office pothing had been received in confirmatioa of the news,

As soon as informatios of ibe relief was received, the Lord Mayor sent the follow- ing despatch to Baden-Powell] : “Citizens of London are relievcd. They rejoice in good news received, fence will long live in British annals. Cable me what money is wanted for needs of the garrison and inhabitants after
