 William K Vanderbilt, who is known to his intimates as Willie K, Is the second son of the late William H. Vanderbilt and grandson of Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt, tho founder of the great for tune that has been divided among the grandchildren. When William H Van, derbilt died, he willed S10, GOO, 900 outright to each of his children The residue Of the estate, estimnted at $l00, 900, GOO, was equally divided between his two oldest sons, Cornelius and William K Since then 1t is believed to have increased large ly, and William K Vanderbilt is without doubt ono of the richest men in the world
 Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt is hand some woman, with beautiful golden hail and large blue gray eyes, and, although she is exceptionally exclusive, those who know her say that she is very gracious and 2 charming to those whom she favors with her friendship Some of the gosslps say she has been conspicuously gracious to Mr. Oliver H. P, Belmont, whose wife, Q relative of Mrs. John Jacob Astor, secured divorce for very good cause soon after their marriage.
 Two summers ago at Newport the com ments on tho Irritation between Mrs. Van derbilt and MT. Belmont were very gener. al and very unfavorable, and only the i'm mense wealth of the family kept the con demnation down. They were always to gether, and he was one of the few visitors constantly admitted to Marble House. He has followed the Vanderbilts about ever since, and was, by Mrs Vanderbilt's invi. tation, member of the yachting party that broke up so abruptly at Nice last March
 The name of the siren on whom MT Vanderbilt has been lavishing his money in Paris is Nellie Neustretter, who is known equally we'll In London and Paris as Fat Nellie. She is buxom, good look ing woman, apparently about 30 years old, always superbly groomed and with dash ing manner that attracts men who are not particular about making acquaintances long way from home.
 San Francisco newspapers have con founded MT. Vanderbilt's inamorata with Kettle Neustatter, a western woman of uncertain anteoedents, who Is now in New York and professes to be preparing for the stage.
 Ward McAllister, who has just returned from Europe, Is Skeptlcal concerning tho Willie Vanderbilt stories, although he is not on friendly terms with the family. The McAllisters, however, have a little scandal of their own on. tap at present and are living in glass house. He says:
 II think the people have been misin- formed as to the separation of MT. Wander bilt and his wife. They are now at theii country house on the Thames, entertain in0 pripna yvbOSa mama I bava f0rOof. ten. have not read the published ac- counts of their divergence, but I do not believe word of it. did not see them at their country house, but I was so in. formed and have no reason to doubt the truth of the information.

Immediately after the breaking up of the yachting party at Nice, Mrs. Vanderbilt, with her children, went to England and established herself at Danesfield, the beau tiful estate of Scott Murray, on the Thames, tho property having been rented for her. MT. Vanderbilt went to Paris, where he enjoyed to the full the pleasure his wealth brought within his grasp, and his reckless expenditures made Parisians open their eyes in wonder. One of the out lets for his purse, it is said, was villa, furnished at tremendous cost, over which woman known to all Paris us the "Queen" presided.
 New Workers recently returned from London and Paris describe the swath that this rich man is cutting as a wide one, and one that he is taking no pains to conceal.
 As an evidence of his surprising reck- lessness," said a clubman, Willie K has actually fitted out the entourage of this well known woman with the Vanderbilt livery, while his crest decorates the har- nesses on her horses and tho panels of her carriages. He met the Queen at the Grand Prix on June IF, just after he had won 40, 900 francs. He was so, favorably impressed with her that he, so it is report ed, presented her with his winning so pub licly that many of his friends saw what he was doing and afterward remonstrated with him.
 When the accounts of her husbands ac- tions reached Mrs. Vanderbilt, she imme- diately communicated with her friends in America and took steps to procure di- vorce. Colonel William Jay of the law firm of Jay & Candler, has recently, with Mrs. Jay been guest of Mrs. Vanderbilt ot no ic bo ia after the interests of Mrs. Vanderbilt, and, further, that through him a formal propo- sition has been made to MT. Vanderbilt looking toward separation. MT. Van derbilt is understood to have made no ob- jection to such an arrangement, although he does object to the terms suggested by his wife.
 It was In 1878 that William K Wander bilt met the woman whom he made his wife. He was then Q handsome, society loving man of 26 years. He had just re- turned from European tour, and his sis ter, Mrs. Elliott F. Shepard, had given a reception in his honor. It was at that re- ception that he met Miss Alva Smith, one of three beautiful southern girls who were known as 'the three beauties. D It was said that MT. Vanderbilt and Miss Smith loved at first sight. No hint of their en- gagement got out, however, for several months The wedding was of course a magnificent affair. ! Miss Smiths family was not wealthy as the Vanderbilts would consider wealth, but what the Smiths of Mobile lacked in money they made up in aristocratic lin eage.
 It requires 10 family residences to &C., oommodate the Willie K Vanderbilts. The tenth is the costly marble palace erect ed at Newport few years ago This alone cost 1000, 00o. Foreign decorators were brought over to put the finishing touches to it. They have residences on Long Is- land, handsome mansion in New York

breaking up of the yachting party on Mir iVanderbilt's Valiant at Nice last March. These rumors were all beneath the surface, however, and it was only recently made public that MT. and Mrs. Vanderbilt have decided on 0 separation. The story has it that a divorce was only narrowly averted, and that in consideration of the unpleas- hnt notoriety that would ensue. The pub. licity has come, however, and the divorce may follow, although friends of the family are making every effort to prevent it.
