Fierce STORM SWEEPS FROM
ROCKIES TO THE LAKES.
Vast Area Suffers Great DAM
age From the Blizzard.
Cvclonic Wind in Chicago.
Wire and Train Service
Almost Paralyzed.

CHICAGO, Dec 27.-One Of the Sc
-verest storms of recent years has ragged
throughout the territory lying between
the Rocky Mountains and the Great
Lakes since early this morning and has
caused much trouble to street cars,
railroads and telegraph companies. The
telegraph companies were the greatest
sufferers. from the blizzard, which has
swept through the West and North
west during the last twenty-four hours
and which was preceded by heavy
fog and driZZling rain, which made the
wires almost unWorkable. The intense
cold and terrific gale that followed
close upon the fog coated the wires
with ice and later in the day threw
poles to the ground. Gripping the COM
panies badly Railroad trains were
badly delayed all through the West,
some of them being twenty-four hours
late. Street-car traffic in all the cities
of the West and Northwest was prac-
tically at a standstill at some time dur
ing the day.
COVERS A WIDE AREA.
In its extent the storm was the most
widespread of any during the last flf-
teen years Counting the fog as COM
ponent part of the storm, it stretched
from the Rocky Mountains to New York
and from Winnipeg to New Orleans.
The only fatalities due to the storm in
this city were:
Alexander Steiner, a teamster, killed
while unloading coal. A chute was
blown from it's fastenings, and, strik
ing Steiner on the head, killed him in
stantly.
Thomas Walsh, a laborer, struck by
a heavy board while entering new
building on Green street and Washing
ton boulevard The board almost cut
his head off.
At 10 o'clock tonight the storm was
reported as subsiding at Kansas City
and other points in a north and south
line from that city, but it will be sew
eral days before normal conditions are
restored throughout the entire section.
CENTER NEAR CHICAGO.
At Chicago and east of here the storm
was still raging at midnight with
great violence. The center Of the
storm is between Chicago and Cleve-
land.
Reports from Kansas City early in
the day were that the storm extended
from the middle of Missouri as far
south as Indian Territory. 1t was ac-
companied throughout its entire extent
by heavy winds and snow. The snow
on the level would have been about one
foot deep. It was drifted SO badly by
the gale, however, that in nearly all

CLEARING THE MYSTERY.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, Dec.
27.-The theory that the woman muir
dered on Cutler Mountain, near this
city, was Mrs. Bessie Kempter Bouton,
formerly Of Syracuse. N. Y, is still
regarded by the police here as the
strongest yet advanced. The Butte.

been Mrs. w. J. Bodno Of that place
is discredited by the statement that
Mrs. Bodno had had her dental work
done very recently, The dental work
in the mouth OF the dead woman
showed considerable wear, this fact
being regarded by the dental experts
who have examined the work as indi-
eating that the dead. woman was not
younger than 25 years of age.
The police to-day have been inter
viewing the local drugstore proprie-
tors and hair dressers and have found
abundant evidence that Mrs. Bouton
was in this city for several days about
October 1, and that during her stay

manufacturing chemist, Of IL East
Twenty-third street, New York.
There is not circumstance yet
brought to light, however, that gives a
clew to where Mrs Bouton went, If
anywhere, from this city.
The mystery surrounding the muir
der is believed here to be yielding to
the/ efforts of the officers, who believe
that they are now on the right track.
HUSBAND BEARS GOOD NAME.
SYRACUSE, N. Y, Dec. 27.-Mrs. G.
H. Kempter, mother of Mrs. Bessie
Bouton, is thoroughly convinced that
the victim of the Cutler Hill murder is
her daughter The last letter she re-
ceived from the girl was written at the
Albany Hotel, Denver. She would not
disclose the contents. She said the
girls name was Doske, but that she
was known as Bessie. The woman's
husband lives here. He is a mechanic
of good reputation. The couple lived
together only short time, and he has

Special Dispatch to The Cali.

SANTA BARBARA, Dec 27.-After
having been shown a detailed descrip-
ton of the woman murdered on Cutler
Mountain in Colorado, Mrs. Charles
Nelson, the sister Of Mrs. Bessie Bou-
ton, said to-day that there was no
room to doubt that Mrs. Couton was
the victim. Mrs. Nelson reiterated her
statement that, in her opinion, Milton
Franklin, who visited this coast under
the name Of George Bouton with the
girl, should be arrested. Franklin is
a gambler. Mrs. Nelson alleges that
he threatened the life of Mrs. Bouton
on several occasions.
Mrs. Nelson is anxious to go to Colo
rado Springs to identify the body, but
claims that she has not sufficient
means to do so. She has telegraphed
to the chief of police of that city that
if he will forward her a ticket she will
leave at once.
Last August Mrs. Bessie Bouton, ac-
companied by a man claiming to be
Milton Franklin, came here from Den
yer for visit with the Nelson's. Mrs.
Bouton informed her sister that she
and Franklin were engaged to be mar
ried, although no date had been set
for the ceremony Franklin's health
was poor and he claimed to be travel
ing for it's benefit and taking a rest
from his regular occupation of a trav-
cling salesman. Those who met him
during his stay here remember that
he was a very excitable and irascible
man, and that he always carried a
couple of revolvers. 1t Is said that be-
fore he had been here long Ii became
apparent that he was professional
