MILLIONAIRE'S SON ENDS
LIFE IN A CHEAP ROOM
Love for Actress Drives Young Cuban
To Shoot Himself-Flrst Saw
Woman In Havana.

NEW YORK, July l5.-For love OF
q woman. an actress III Merry Widow
company, Juan Balsinde, son OF a
multi-millionaire exporter OF sugar
and an immense land owner In Ha.
vana, Cuba. ended his life In a cheaply
furnished room at No. 2l1 East Four
feminist, In Soubrette Row, this
morning.
For nearly year Balsinde has been
madly infatuated with the actress.
For her he gave up palatial home in
Cuba, gave up his chance for college
education and spent thousands OF dol
lars following her about the world. in
the West Indies, and later In every
part OF the United States.
When he ended his life, young Bal
sinde had not a cent in his pocket,
and a letter from his doting mother
showed that no more would be forth
coming unless he would agree to re-
linquish the woman and return TO his
studies at school at Poughkeepsie.
Unless his wealthy relatives claim the
body. 1t will be buried In the Potter's
feld.
Balsinde came to New York several
years ago to take a course In a school
IN Poughkeepsie. As son OF the
senior member OF an unusually rich
firm Of Balsinde Brothers, OF Havana.
he spent money like a prince. He be-
gan 10 dissipate and was recalled to
his home In Havana. There at a thea
ter he saw the Merry Widow" He
fell In love with one OF the women OF
the stage. and when the show left Ha-
yana Balsinde was In It's wake. The
long travels he took with the show
are proven by the theater coupons
which, neatly tied with ribbon, we're
found la his trunk. They were from
every theater In which the company
appeared.
When the family grew tired OF the
young mans designations and in an
