 Notes for MARIA NATIVIDAD IZNAGA y DEL VALLE

      Perhaps Sancti Spíritus's most splendid colonial home, Museo de Arte Colonial , Plácido 74 at Jesús Menéndez (tel. 41/2-5455), is the city's standout attraction. The opulent former palatial mansion of one of Cuba's most elite families, the Valle-Iznaga clan, who fled Cuba after the Revolution, it became the property of the state in 1961. Ninety percent of what you see inside, from furniture to paintings, is original. Though the family obviously kept an impressive collection of Limoges porcelain, French gilded mirrors, Italian marble tables, and Baccarat crystal chandeliers here, it wasn't their primary residence; the house was used mostly to host family members in transit, so the furnishings were rather eclectic. The three bedrooms are decorated in grand style, though, with handmade lace, embroidered sheets, and hand-painted glass. Note the gorgeous and very Cuban leather sillón fumador (smoking chair) and, in the music room, the mid-18th-century American piano, one of only two of its type in Cuba. In the tearoom is the family seal, which says a lot about the arrogance of the rich and powerful: "El que más vale no vale tanto como Valle vale" ("He who has the greatest worth isn't worth as much as a Valle is worth" -- playing off the Spanish word for "worth" with the family surname).

El mayordomo tenía la orden de gastar para la mesa una onza diaria; y cuando el rumboso brigadier, que operaba ea el Camagüey, pasaba á Sancti Spiritus, entonces los banquetes eran suntuosos, y el bueno de Don Francisco, repartía limosnas á los pobres, cual el Obispo Bienvenido, del gran Víctor Hugo.

       Entre 1853 y 1858 convivió en la ciudad de Nueva Orleáns un grupo de exiliados hispanoamericanos que, desde diversas experiencias nacionales, encontró allí un lugar propicio para trabajar a favor de sus causas políticas. El puerto de Nueva Orleans era entonces la principal plaza del comercio con La Habana y Veracruz, y aquella importante ciudad de Louisiana era uno de los grandes centros de la política sureña en Estados Unidos.

Nueva Orleans funcionaba, a mediados del siglo XIX, como lugar estratégico para la comunicación intelectual y política con México y el Caribe y como una vía de acceso a la política de Washington hacia América Latina.

Los dos principales núcleos de aquella comunidad de exiliados fueron los liberales mexicanos desterrados de la dictadura de Antonio López de Santa Anna y los anexionistas cubanos deportados por la Capitanía General de la isla de Cuba. Liberales mexicanos y anexionistas cubanos tenían en común, además de la sociabilidad masónica y el credo republicano que los movilizaba contra regímenes monárquicos y despóticos, una orientación geopolítica similar, que se inscribía en la tradición de la Doctrina Monroe, bien entendida, y que los identificaba en la oposición al reino de Isabel II, entonces en transición de la ¿década moderada¿ de Ramón María Narváez (1843-1853) al ¿bienio progresista¿ (1854-1856) de Baldomero Espartero.1 Los cubanos rechazaban a España porque sostenía un régimen colonial y esclavista en la isla; los mexicanos, porque el trono isabelino se había alineado con la dictadura de Santa Anna y el grupo conservador que emergía con fuerza en la política de su país.

La oposición a España provocó en aquellos intelectuales y políticos una natural aproximación a Estados Unidos, aun en momentos del sensible desplazamiento de la Doctrina Monroe por la doctrina del ¿destino manifiesto¿, que sobrevino a la guerra contra México en 1847.

El liberalismo y el republicanismo eran, entonces, referentes ideológicos más fuertes que el nacionalismo, en cualquiera de sus modalidades románticas, y unos y otros estaban resueltos a superar cualquier escrúpulo patriótico en un acercamiento conveniente al aliado estratégico y poderoso que representaba Estados Unidos. Lograr el reconocimiento y el respaldo de Washington a la causa liberal mexicana y la destrucción del orden colonial y esclavista de España, por medio de la anexión de la isla a Estados Unidos, eran objetivos complementarios para aquellos conspiradores.

 Fernando Iznaga, who died yesterday at the Minturn Hospital from diphtheria, was one of the best-known men in New York and foreign society and club life. His sudden death produced a great shock in this city, where he had many friends. Mr. Iznaga was one of the most entertaining of men, very clever at epigram and repartee, and famous for quaint sayings. His life had been quite adventurous and, from a domestic point of view, somewhat of a stormy nature.__He was the only son of the late Antonio Iznaga del Valle. His mother was from Louisiana and a member of a well-known family there. She was a Miss Clements. His father for years was a merchant in New York. He was a Cuban by birth, holding large estates in that island, and engaged in the Cuban trade. He belonged to the well-known family of Iznaga del Valle, many members of which have lived in New York and other American cities.__Fernando Iznaga was educated abroad. His father went out of business and settled in Louisiana on a plantation near Lake Concordia. The family lived there and in Cuba for a number of years, and they were all well known in New Orleans society. Fernando Iznaga remained in that city until about the year 1880. He had three sisters. The eldest of these, the beautiful Consuelo Iznaga, and her mother passed part of the year, after she grew up, in New York and its vicinity. They have many relatives here. Mrs. Iznaga had a small house in East Orange, and it was there, after mother and daughter had met Lord Mandeville, that they nursed this nobleman through an attack of African fever. A short time after that Consuelo Iznaga married the heir of the Duke of Manchester.__Fernando Iznaga came to New York to live just after his sister's marriage. It was here that he met Miss Jenny Smith, the sister of Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt. Lady Mandeville and Mrs. Vanderbilt were very intimate friends, and shortly after the meeting Mr. Iznaga married Miss Smith. Becoming the brother-in-law of Mr. Vanderbilt, the foundation of his fortune was established. It is said that one of his wedding presents was a seat on the Stock Exchange and he entered into the firm of H.B. Hollins & Co., who have always done a great deal of the Vanderbilt brokerage business. Fernando Iznaga and William K. Vanderbilt remained very devoted friends through all the domestic complications which followed, and Mr. Iznaga was generally one of the guests on the many cruises of the Valiant. In fact, Winfield Hoyt, Mr. Iznaga, and Louis Webb were frequently referred to as the "Three Vanderbilt Musketeers." as they were always seen together and with William K. Vanderbilt. Mr. and Mrs. Iznaga did not live very happily, and fifteen years ago they were divorced. Mrs. Iznaga remarried, her second husband being William George Tiffany of the Baltimore family of that name. They are living at Maison Lafitte, near Paris. __Society was astonished about twelve years ago to hear of the announcement of the engagement of Miss Mabel Wright and Fernando Iznaga. Miss Wright had appeared with Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt at the opera on a Friday evening, and her engagement was then announced to her friends. Miss Wright was a very beautiful girl. She had appeared at some charity entertainment and had made a sensation with her beauty. Her father was a designer of carpets for the Higgins Mills. He and his daughter lived very quietly in a boarding house. Miss Wright's face was her fortune, and after a trip to Narragansett and a short visit to Newport she became the toast of the season. The wedding was quietly celebrated in less than a week from the announcement of the engagement. The ceremony took place at the house where Mr. Wright and his family boarded, and Mr. and Mrs. Iznaga sailed the following day for Europe.__On their return to this country they lived in New York and at Tuxedo. About six years ago there were again rumors of domestic unhappiness. This culminated when Mrs. Iznaga went to Dakota and secured a divorce. Soon after this she married Count Zichy, at St. Stephen's Roman Catholic Church. The Count and Countess Zichy are living in Hungary, where the Count's family have large estates. The Count was a well-known figure in Newport society for several Summers. His wife became a Roman Catholic at the time of her marriage to him, and she had the previous marriage with Mr. Iznaga annulled by the Church.__For the past six years, since Mr. Iznaga had been a second time divorced, he had been out a great deal in society. His brother-in-law, William K. Vanderbilt, also divorced, had him as an almost constant companion. There have been several rumors of his intention to marry a third time, but Mr. Iznaga always treated these stories lightly. It was even announced, only a few weeks ago that he would marry Mrs. Constance Biddle, a woman recently divorced from her husband, and who had gone on the stage. The report was denied.__Mr. Iznaga was an excellent business man, and is said to have made a fortune in Wall Street. He was a member of the Union and Tuxedo Clubs, as well as one of the original members of the Metropolitan Club, where he lived.__Surviving Mr. Iznaga are his mother, Mrs. Antonio Iznaga, who is at present on her Southern plantation, and three sisters, the eldest the widowed Duchess of Manchester, known here so well as Lady Mandeville; Natica, Lady Lister Kaye and Emily, who is unmarried. They are all abroad. Mr. Iznaga last year made a Winter trip to Davos, where he was with his sister, the Duchess of Manchester, at the death of her only surviving daughter. He had never seemed a very strong man since then, and it is thought by those who heard yesterday of his sudden death, that his constitution had never recovered from the long, nervous strain which he went through at that time. He left no children

 Notes: "Historia de Trinidad¿ 1945 por Francisco Marín Villafuerte. "En el  año 1903 hizo su aparición -y fue fugaz su vida- "El Pueblo", redactado por Carlos E. Trujillo y Juan Melitón Iznaga, cuyo periódico ya había publicado Iznaga en 1900. Fue Melitón lznaga culto y fecundo escritor, orador de fácil palabra, trinitario fervoroso y veterano, aún adolescente, de nuestra Revolución del 95. En su pecho turbulento renació la devoción de sus antepasados por Cuba y por este su solar nativo. Falleció en Sta Clara en 1941."
