Private millionaire leaves thousandslj
Texas civic institutions, surprises frieni
DALLAS (AP) — Mildred Alford
once sent her maid back to the store
because she forgot to use a 5 cent
coupon when she bought a can of
her favorite chicken noodle soup.
“She didn’t care that she would
spend more money paying for her
housemaid’s gas to drive back to
the store,” said longtime neighbor
Marian Norvell. “It was the spirit
of being frugal that she mostly
cared about.”
Norvell said her jaw never
dropped farther than when she
learned Mrs. Alford was a millionaire.
The retired school principal,
who died last year at age 91, quiet
ly left $250,000 gifts distributed this
month to the Dallas Zoo, the Dal
las public library, the Texas Parks
and Wildlife De
partment, a
homeless shelter
and Children’s
Medical Center
of Dallas.
What perplex
es many of her
friends is how a
lifetime educator,
who retired in
1970, managed to
accumulate a net
worth of nearly
$2 million.
Residents in the modest neigh
borhood of brick homes said she
didn’t come from a wealthy family,
didn’t marry rich men — she was
twice widowed
“She lived off of spoke about
her money.
“It’s not that
she never

Judge leaves Cisneros trial date up in the.
BROWNSVILLE (AP) — A judge hearing pre
trial arguments in the case of a woman accused
in a murder-for-hire plot ruled Monday on de
fense motions but left the date and location of the
trial up in the air.
Attorneys for Dora Cisneros, who is facing fed -
eral charges for allegedly arranging the murder of
her daughter's ex-boyffiend, had previously re
quested a change of venue, but no decision was
made on that Monday.
Cisneros attended the hearing with her hus
band and daughter, but didn’t comment dur
ing or after the proceedings. She is free on
bond pending the trial. Her attorneys and As
sistant U.S. Attorney Mervyn Mosbacker also
refused comment.
Judge Filemon Vela unsealed the indictment
against Cisneros Monday and rejected defense ar
guments that federal prosecutors unlawfully had
both a Brownsville and Houston grand jury in
vestigate the case.
Mosbacker said only a Houston grand jury,
which returned the indictment, investigated
the case.
Vela also rejected motions to dismiss the case
on the grounds that the federal trial constituted
double jeopardy.
Cisneros was convicted in 1994 on state
charges of arranging the murder-for-hire of Joey
Fisclier, an 18-year-old high school senior who
had dated Cisneros’ daughter.
But the conviction was overturned by the
Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, which found the
prosecutor had left out a few crucial words in the
jury charge.
Cisneros was accused of arrange
murder through Maria MercedesNte
healer dealing in lovepotionsandtaim
ings. Martinez was the key witness is
case against Cisneros and isexpecit

Texas lawmakers powerless to resolve rail problt
AUSTIN (AP) —Texas lawmakers
are powerless to address congestion
problems stemming from the
Union Pacific-Southern Pacific rail
merger that some estimate are cost
ing the state’s economy $100 million
per month.
Sen. David Sibley, R-Waco, chair
man of the Senate Interim Commit
tee on Economic Development, said
after several hours of testimony
Monday related to the railroad prob
lems that there was little the state
could do.
“At this point in time, we are at the
mercy of the Congress,” Sibley said.
Sibley suggested during the hear
ing that the state should open up
tracks owned by a specific railroad
to competition by allowing com
petitors to pay the track owner for
use of the track.
The Texas Railroad Commission
also has offered a plan that would en
courage competition by other rail
roads on tracks owned by Union Pa
cific, die nation’s largest railroad.
But Sibley was later told such a
move would require approval by the
federal government, which regu
lates railroads.
Sibley said he would try to meet
with Texas congressional members
during a trip to Washington this
week, but sounded a bit pes
simistic about getting any help
from Congress.
“If all we can do is just stand
back and ask them to do us a favor,
then I guess we’ve got a problem,"
Sibley said.
Sibley pressed Union Pacific’s Bob
Starzel, vice president of the rail
road’s western region, to pinpoint
when congestion problems with the
railroad would be ironed out.
“Are we talking weeks or months,
months or years or years to
decades?” Sibley asked.
“Months,” Starzel replied.
Starzel said he couldn’t be more
specific because predictions that
things would be running smoothly
by last fall were grossly off-base.
“We are not going to predict
any more about when things are
going to improve because we
