THE ROMANCE DISTILLED.
Evangeline Cisneros, Is Simply the Daugh- ter of Poor. But Respectable" Parents.

WASHINGTON, Sept 1.-Consul-Gen- eral Lees investigation into the cir cumstances attending the arrest of the young Cuban girl Evangeline Cossio Clsneros, have resulted in sweeping away u great deal 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, as has been proclaimed, but IS the daughter of poor and respecta- ble Cuban named Augustin Cossio. Her mothers name, being Cisneros, was added to her own, according to the Spanish custom, making her full name Evangeline Cossio Cisneros. Moreover Gen. 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.

MRS. JOHN DREW.

Death of the Noted Actress Whose Stage
 Experience Dates Back to 1S26-she
 was One Of the Most Versatile and Pains
 taking Artists Upon the American Stage
 Her Most Notable Character was "Mrs'
 Malaprop."
 NEW YORK, Sept. S.-Mrs. Drew, the actress, died yesterday afternoon at the Beviau house. Larchmont. She had been unce nscious for three hours. She had been suffering for several years. but not seriously until May or June last. During the last few days it was apparent the end was not far off. Mon day, however, Mrs. Drew seemed much better than for several days previous. Yesterday morning she seemed Tn good spirits and chatted with those about her Mrs. Drew soon afterwards be- came unconscious. She lay in that condition until about seven minutes of three, when she was taken with con vulsions, which lasted until the end came at three o'clock.
 With the passing of Mrs. John Drew there has parted one of the few links that unite the present generation with the grandest galaxy that has ever il- luminated the American dramatic fir mament. She was contemporaneous and appeared upon the stage in leading parts with the elder Booth and Forest with Macready and Edwin Booth, with Florence, Clarke and Owen, of those who have passed away, and with Jeff ferson and Couldock, who still survive.
 She was in her day an infant 1a lieh aria boards, and the most famous of Mrs Malaprops, winning laurels as Julie de Mortimer, Ophelia. Desdemona and Pauline, not to mention characters in more recently written plays. With practically no education in the ac- cepted sense, she was an actress of rare intelligence and refinement
 Mrs. Drew was born in London on January 10, 1920, and six years later made her stage debut as Agib in .'Timour the Tartar
 At the age of seven she was brought to America by her mother, an actress, and in the old Walnut-street theater, in Philadelphia, played the duke of York to Junius Brutus Booths Richard ILL At this time she was known as Louisa Lane.
 In 1883 she joined the stock company at the Bowery theater in New York, remaining there for five years, playing long list of characters in so-called le- gitimate dramas.
 Then she returned to Philadelphia and to the Walnut-street theater, soon afterward becoming the wife of Henry Hunt, popular vocalist of his day. She separated from him in 1s47, subse- quently marrying an Irish comedian named Mossop, who dled a year or two later. She married John Drew in 1850.
 In recent years Mrs. Drew's most notable work was in the character oi Mrs. Malaprop in the company which included Messrs. Jefferson, Florence and Couldock. Her last engagement was in the company playing the Sport. ing Duchess"

CROP MONEY
Being Freely Moved to the Great Produc-

NEW YORK, Sept LA canvass of the leading banks in this city shows that large sums of money are being shipped south daily to help move the crops One of the most prominent finan- cial institutions here has sent about S70o,OOO since the middle of last week. and orders are still coming in. The subtreasury at this city has not had so many currency orders as usual. but this is ascribed to the lateness of the crops in the southwest. Altogether it Is estimated that fully 5000, 900 of "erop money" has been shipped from this city the past fortnight. The southern credits are in better shape just now than they have been in sev- eral years, and the general outlook in that section and in the southwest, as viewed from here, is equally bright.
