looks Ilko a foil. All street car lines In the
city were compelled to suspend operations
yesterday nfternooti, the plows helm un

Dispatches from Kansas Indicate that the

fall was reported at midnight two feet,
while similar reports came from other
points.
Signal Officer Conner states that the

from the west on all roads are reported
from four to twelve hours late, and some
of them have been "lost" altogether.

A dispatcli from Hetinessy, O. T., says:
A terrible norther, never before experi

has been snowing mid drifting since with
no abatement, and lias drifted in places six
feet deep. Hailroad traffic is entirely sus

denly, and no doubt the poorly sheltered
bottlers in the Cherokee strip will sttlTcr
greatly from exposure. The wind is blow

similar reports come from 1'ittsburg,

OMAHA, Feb. 12. Since .1 o'clock yester
day morning n rtorm lias raged generally
in the upper Miouri country, covering
the entire territory between the river and
the mountains. Tho wind is from the
northwest, blowing nt almost a gale, ac
companied by, fine snow, which is drifted
badly and packed hard. In this city cars
have ceased running, and the movement
of railroad trains is greatly hampered. All
outgoing trains have been abandoned,
lteports received from points in the west
say the snowfall is increasing and is drift
ing bndly, so that a general blockade is
imminent. The mercury is below zero,
and undoubtedly will go lower. This will
entail great suITering and probably exten
sive loss among cattle ranges. The wet
biiow of Friday covered all foratre out o

possible for the cattle to obtain any lood

ean actress Annie I'lxley, who tiled In
London In October last umler.Rlvrlatiueil,
niystfriiniseireiiiintiinciK, vaa pitsenger
on t lie American line steamer New York.
Mr Kulford wiw He('Oiuiuied liy his ii
ler. Mrs William Kraser, and by Annie
Joyce, (he late Miss I'lxley'a maid, who Is
said to have admluisleretl certain (Hiwders
to her, thus belli llistriiniental in cnusiiiK
lier death in order that Mr. l-'ulford mbnt
nlitiiiii K)BHesion of her estate, valuiil at
fl-oin .KI,KI to 4(KI,(KJ0.
Mr Kulford was met by a representative
of the Associated l'resi, who acquainted
him witli the serious cliai-xe. which have
been made against him by tlio I'lxley fam-1
liy, as published durtiiK the past week, as
tot lie circiinistaiicessurrouiulliiK the death ,
of his wife ami the aliened Turneries In ,
connection with the transfer nf deeds aud
mortgage beliiining lo ids wife's estate. !
Mr. Fulford was considerably smprised ;
aim snocKeu wnen lie learned the -enolis
nature of the charges.
"I have lieen living In the suburbs of
London," he wiid, "and have seen nothing
of all tills. 1 can say, however, tlmt It is
all the most al'Mird niblii-li on earth. My '
wife died dei-pite the attention of two of
the most skilled physicians in Kngland.
"The idea of charging me with seeking
to get rid of my wife is nothing short of
silly on the luce of It. AVIml had I to
gninf Certainly no mercenary object
would have inlluenu d me, as there was
no uecessitj for it. All the money was
mine, w I. ether my wife was alive or not.
The charge of harsh tnatiuent of my wife
Is likewise untrue My wife anil I lived
together for twenty-one year, from the
time of our marriage at Portland, Ore to
her death, happily and without a sepnra
tlon nt any time. Her death was a serious
blow to me.
"The assertion iiHin the part of the I'lx
ley's that all the devils and mortgages be
longing to Miss I'lxley me in my name is
certainly true. They are all In my name
nnd "ill remain -o. Who else would have
them? It was through my management
that Miss 1'ixlev made her fortune. She
'left everj tiling lo me to be disposed of as
1 thought best. It was never intended
that Airs. I'lxley, her mother, should bo
left unprovided for. I have taken care of
the whole family for over twenty years.
"Mrs. I'lxley has got me into a nice llt
tlo scrape by her ill advised talkl tig, ami
its u poor way to set about obi lining what
she alleges Is due. Of course I shall con
tinue to look out for my mother-iu-lnw,
but I doubt if I will contribute anything
more for the halt druthers of my wife to
sport with on Broadway. They are old
and big enough to cam a living for them
selves. "There really hits never been too much
good feeling between Annie's family and
myself. I received a letter from mv friend.
Dr. Fleming, saying that the old lady was
very irate, or something to tlmt effect, but
I did not know to what bounds her auger
or impatience had led her until now.
"The bulk of my wife's estate is local ed
In Philadelphia, where I shall go very soon
to prepare for tho fighting of t lie legal bat
tle, which I understand has been started
forme. There is a joint will between my
wife and I, made by us years ago, which I
will have probated.
"In regard to tile story that I caused iny
wife's i cumins to lie cremated In order
that no Investigation could lie made into
the cause of her death I can only say tlmt
bhe was creiunted at her own special re
quest, nnd I cm prove this by the evidence
of several p ipV "
Miss Amu,. .Luce was next Interviewed
by the Associated Press representative.
Miss Joyce is an attuetivc looking young
woman uuil wore a neat mourning suit and
a Jaunty crepe bonnit. She said:
"There Is absolutely no truth In tho
stories connecl iug me witli the death of
MlssPixley. The charges are simply pre
posterous, and so far as 1 am concerned 1
court the fullest Inquiry into the death of
Miss Pixley so far as my attendance of her
during her last illness is concerned, or
otherwise."
Mr. Starr L. Pixley, brother of the late
Annie Pixley, said on behalf of the family:
"We all believe that the manner In
which my sister came so suddenly to an
end is, to say the least, peculiar. While
we have no proof upon which to base a
piosecution of ltobert Fulford, her hus
band, for causing the death ot my sister,
published stories aud Interviews with my
mother and sister represent our opinions
Oil the subject.
"The only object of the legal proceed
ings we are preparing to take is to obtain
what wc believe to be our right to a proper
share of the estate of Annie, and to emi.-e
Mr. Fulford to make a proper accounting
to us of his disposition of the will, deeds
and pajiers of iny sister, in which we can
prove we are interested.
"My sister trusted Implicitly In her hus
band, lie was always in full coutiol of
her property and deposited in lumks all
her money in his name, so that Annie had
to go to her husband for every dollar she
wanted to spend.
"Aunio's brain was In no way affected.
Last September, when she was 111, her hus
band called in Or. Walter Fleming to at
tend her. Dr. Fleming and Mr. Fulford
were intimate friends. Annie did not like
him and begged that she be permitted to
have another physician. We do not know
exactly what the powders were which
were prescribed for her aud which were so
persistently und regularly administered
by Joyce, Annie's maid nnd dresser. We
n lsh we had kept oneof these for analysis
"As it stands, however," continued Mr
Pixley, "we can ouly give it as our opln
ion that Annie's death was very myste
rioiis, aud her cremation, despite the wish
of the family that her remains lie sent
home, ouly adds, in our minds, to the
strength of this view. The entire lack of
proof, in a legal sense, prevents our mak
ing these charges against Fulford.
"It is true that Mr. Fulford has com
plete possession of tho eutlre estate of his
wife. Everything has been transferred to
him, and wo suspect Joyce to have assisted
lu this, Her writing is certainly very like
that of my sister."
Colonel It. S. Hairc, of 345 Broadway,
counsel for the Pixley family, said:
"I would have preferred had tho Pixley
family used more, discretion in tiieir state
ments. They believe, of course, that the
charge! made against Robert Fulford,
Annie Pl.xley's htlslianil, are true. There
(ire many circumstances connected! with
the departure for Kuglaiid of Miss Pixley,
her treatment for her Illness and the final
disposition of her remains which lend
color to the opinions that have been pub
lished. "it !i, however, a very serious matter to
charge a man with a felony unless there
Is good legal proof to substantiate hi
guilt. There is no proof In the present
case, and no such charges will lie made.
"I know nothing alsmt the matter Iss
yoml what has Is-en told moby the Pixley
family My duty Is simply to Investigate
the question of w hat right Kulford had to
transfer the entire estate of Ills wife to
himself, thereby entirely ignoring the
claims of her family "
Colonel Ilalre announces that he has
positive evidence to prove that Miss pix
ley left a will providing for her family,
will witnesses who will testify to the harsh
treatment of his wife by Fiillord For
geries in the transfer of deeds are also
broadly hinted at. The cae. which will
come up in Philadelphia, promises to be a
sensational one. The estate of Miss Pisley
Is variously estimated at from .'tK),Ki to
4(I0,UI). Among other lhings.it, included
a W,(HX) mortgage on the Park theater in
Philadelphia. The latter, it Is clulmed by
Colonel Hali-e, Miss Ilxley arranged prior
to her death to be set aside ulisoliltely for
her mother.
