Ruwul Pindi. He comes officially to con-
fer with the Maha Rajah of Cashmere. The
viceroy was met by a great crowd and &C
corded a splendid reception. In reply to
the address of welcome, presented by the
officers of the municipality, Earl Dufferin
spoke officially of the Anglo.Russian situa-
ton in significant words. Among other
things he said: "Ooming from an import

For a time the uproar was so great that

was heard to say: 81 was determined

newal of the tumult, and then the Lord
Mayors voice was again heard yelling
above the din, "Three cheers for Par

were drowned by counter cheers from the

New YORK, April 16.-The Worlds New
Haven special says: David J.. Woodruff, o.
Oakland, Cal, brother of editor Woodruff
of the New Haven Union, who arrived re-
Gently, and represented himself as pos
sessed of fabulous wealth, has disappeared,
and with his disappearance the golden
fabric which he had woven in the minds OF
his relatives has passed away like a vision
1t is thought Woodruff is insane. He left
this city in '55, and ten years later he was
heard from in California. He was always
regarded as a man of integrity, and when
he returned q few weeks ago and related to
his relatives stories of his vast wealth, and
asked them to share it with him in the
West, they accepted his statement as true.
His conversation recently became 30 ex-
travagant that his brother suspected some
thing wrong, and suggested that certain
moneys be turned over to him to meet the
immediate expenses of removal. This
Woodruff readily consented to do, and
time and place for the transfer was ap-
pointed. Some OF Woodruff's relatives
sold out their business, and all had pre-
pared for removal when the painful fact
was realized that Woodruf's wealth was
purely imaginary, and that in fact he was
q penniless crank. On the day appointed
to hand over the few hundred thousand
dollars to his brother he disappeared, and
it is thought went to New York.
