Washington, Sept. 1.-Consul General
Lees investigation into the circum-
stances attending the arrest of the
young Cuban girl, Evangellne Cosio
Clsneros, have resulted in sweeping
away a great dea! of the romance that
attached to her case. He cabled the
state department yesterday from Ha-
vana that the girl is not the niece of
the Marquese Santa Lucia, but is the
daughter of q poor and respectable
Cuban named Augustin Cosio. Her
mothers name was Cisneros. More
over, General Lee reports that this girl
is not an only daughter, nor has she
been raised in wealth and luxury. but
is one of five or six children.
