RICHEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD
Lives in Chile, and Traces Her Ancestry
Back TO the spanish Conquest.
Fyoun The piffab,.r, DfsnakcB

6hCk TO Jno spanish OOnQuSSt.
From the Pittsbur0 Dispatch.
The richest woman in the world-such she
has long been acknowledged-is Dona Isa-
dora Cousino, sometimes known as the "Croe-
sus of South America" Her various homes
are In aud near Santiago in Chile. She
traces her ancestry back to the days of the
Spanish conquest. She has heen a widow
for about ten years, bit. even during her
husbands lifetime, she managed her own
property, worth many millions, which came
from her ancestral estate.
The Cousino estate-now representing the
property of her late husband. as we'll as her
own, with the increments due to her execu-
tive ability, which Is said to he greater even
than was her husbands-consisis of millions
Of money in bank, of cattle and sheep, of
coal mines, Of copper and silver mines, of
iron steamships, OF real estate In the cities
OF Santiago and Valparaiso, of smelling
works, Of railroads and farming lands.
From her coal mines aloue Sonora Cousino
ia said to have an income of $4,000 a
month. or $960,000 year. This income
from one form Of wealth alone represents a
branch OF her estate which should be con-
sidere1, at fair capitalization Of its in
come to amount TO s25 900 900. The ex-
tent Of her coal mine property. however, is
known only to herself but whereas Ii costs
only 81 35 ton to mine her coal, she
readily realizes for 1t 81 so ton. Her own
fiect Of eight iron steamships carries her
coal and ore to market
She owns every house 10 the town of Lota,
which has 1000 inhabitants, also nine
tenths of the houses in the mining town OF
Soronel. The town of Lota is her favorite
residence. There she has a magnificent
mansion in the center of the finest private
park In the world. 1t is supplied with all
the luxuries that untold wealth can procure
brought to her very doors from the ports of
Europe. Asia and Africa by her own steam
ships.
She has another park and palace about an
hours drive from Santiago on the finest
plantation in Chile.
Her vineyard at Macul has upon 10 sim
gle cellar 500 feet long by 100 wide, which
is kept constantly full of wine, and supplies
the markets OF all Chile.
She has another large estate about thirty
miles from Santiago. also a great town
house In that city built mostly OF red cedar
brought from California. This house is
decorated by Partisan artists, 1t Ia said, by
those who have seen it, TO be hner than any
residence in New York city,
The income of Sonora Cousino Is put at
$25, ,000, 900 a year, aud South Americans
say her estate would realize not less than
$500, ,000.0 .000. This would make her not only
the richest woman but the richest person in
the world.
