By KOBEST J. FXJSW ISTAFF CORRESPONDENT I. H. SERVICE PARIS, Aug:- 13. The romantic story of a wealthy young American's love for a beautiful Spanish girl, their marriage, his alleged elopement with his -wife's pretty cousin, and the death of the dancer, broken-hearted and alone, vai revealed here today at a conference of the representatives of the Winans and Whistler families of Baltimore, Md., and Lenox. Mass., and a swarthy, wrinkledfaced old Spaniard, the father of the unfortunate beauty. The conference marked the opening scene in an amazing international legal right for the millions of Ross R,evillon Winans. Baltimore and New Tork millionaire, -whose, son Thomas George Winans. eleven years ago married Victoria Delgrado, daughter of an old tavern keeper in the seaport town of Malaga, Spain, and famous as the most beautiful girl In the Spanish peninsula. For his two grandchildren the old tavern keeper of Malaga Is seeking to obtain a share of the fortune of their dead grandfather, estimated at between $15.000.000 and $20,000,000, a sum that would make them two of the wealthiest children in the world. He is striving to retain custody of the children at the same time. The Winans and Whistler families are attempting to have the children given over to the care of their father, who is now living in Switzerland.

The story begins In the ancient Spanish town of Malaga twelve years ago, where old Delgrado kept a little tavern. His two daughters Marie and Victoria, were locally famous as dancers and were called the most beautiful girls in all Spain, so persistent became the attentions of their many suitors that the old Spaniard used to mount guard with a gun over the stairs leading from the drinking room to the 'tavern to the Quarters where the girls and their mother lived. Foreign tourists attracted by stories of the charming dancers visited the tavern. The Maharajah Kapulthala. one of the most Influential and wealthiest of Indian princes fell violently in love with Marie, convinced the tavern keeper that his effection was not of a passing nature and finally married the girl. Their married life has been one of unalloyed happiness. Then young Winans, who had been touring Europe arrived in Malaga, became infatuated with Victoria and married her in 190S. A boy and a girl were born to this marriage. A few years later, according to Arthur

Valabrogue the attorney for the children, the American began to neglect his wife and eventually deserted her, eloping with her black-eyed cousin. Carmen Garcia, another noted beauty. At first, the attorney says. Winans allowed her 3.000 pesetas monthly but the payments became iregular and the dancing girl was forced to sell her Jewels to save her babies from starvation. Meanwhile Ross Winans died In Baltimore, leaving a fortune. Victoria wrote Ross Whistler, a member of the family, claiming money for the support of herself and children. Whistler's lawyer, Charles W. Field, of Baltimore, eventually agreed to pay her one thousand francs a month, according to the attorney, on condition that she dropped her suit, in which she alleged infidelity against Thomas Winans in the Spanish courts. Last year during the inf.uens epidemic, Victoria died broken-hearted and

control of Ross Whistler who began paying off his debts which were said to total 2,000,000 francs. The children were placed in custody of Spanish grandparents at Malaga. Their father at once begfan efforts to obtain custody of them and persuaded the Delgrados to bring them to Paris last April. The. police commissary's office then attempted to induce the old Spanish couple to turn the children over to their father, but the former chief of police of Malaga, a great friend of Delgrado, was ia Paris and intervened successfully on behalf of the

tavernkeeper. The Paris courts then conflded custody of the grandchildren to the Delgrados for one year. For several months the Jittle boy and girl have been living with the family of the Maharajah Kapulthala. The Indian prine and his wife proposed a family conference on the subject of the children's rights and was held in London.
