BEE. IA lively case in tho Fremont police
court today was one in which n young mar
named Bert Fuller hat Nod Martin, his
prospective father in-law, arrested for dis
turblng the peace. Fuller is understood to
be engaged to Martins eldest daughter, Miss
Bel, and he spends a good deal of his time
basking in the smiles of his adored one. He
was at the Martin residence last evening,
when n quarrel arose between Martin and
himself. The former had been indulpinr
pretty freely IN the ardent, and concluded TO
express his disapproval of Fuller's atten-
lions to his daughter. His protest was dis
tasteful to young Fuller, so he rose up and
slnote Martin with great emphasis, knocking
the old man out in the first round. Today
Martin was arrested on complaint of Fuller,
and the whole family of daughters, together
with the lover and parents, were in court,
the former on warrants to compel their at
tendance. Notwithstanding all the witnesses
testified against Martin, the complaint
against him was dismissed and all the costs
charged up TO young Fuller.

CHICAGO, Dec. sa-tSpecial Telegram TO
The BEE. The general managers Of the
Interstate Commerce railway association
think they sec the beginning of the end in
the attempt to decide on such a basis of
rates for Nebraskeg and Kansas as to avoid
the danger of hostile legislation. Today it
was practically decided by the conference
committee that nm agreement would be
reached by n Jehango of a few rates de-
manded by the tpans-Missouri river lines.
A subcommittee consisting of all lines west
of the Missouri was consequently appointed,
its duty being to agree on u compromise of
rates. This compromise IL Is thought can
De embodied in a resolution which
will meet with unanimous assent.
The managers adjourned after the appoint
ment of the committee whose report will be
considered at 10 tomorrow morning, soon
after which an agreement is expected.
The subject before the meeting and the
method of discussing the solution cuntrovert
the usually accepted maxim that railroads
do not fear the action of state legislatures.
Had IT not been for this very fear the report
OF the chairman on a proper basis of rates
would have been Immediately accepted.
Every member acknowledged the decision to
be perfectly fair. That its being enforced
would result in hostile action by Lincoln in
%terests is the sum and substance of the diff
Guilty.

What the Farce Writers May See in
the Treasury Corridors.
If Charles FL. Hoyt or some good CON-
edy writer would come to Washington
and spend a season he would get enough
year.. There are some awfully funny
things in the treasury corridors. The
Washington Post has heard of some of
them. The halls are dark at all times,
especially SO on gloomy days. The doors
of the rooms open inward, but the Ven
etian blind doors swing outward. Now
here is an incident in skeleton:
Portly, we'll preserved, much dressed
visitor meets pretty treasury Countess
fitting through the corridor. He steps
to one side, takes of his hat, brings his
heels together to bow in second posi-
ton. Just as the bow is achieved and
before he begins to straighten his back,
a Venetian door bursts open, smashing
his hat against his manly buzzom aud
smashing his nose against his manly
phiz. Tableau: Visitor all over the
floor; his buck messenger stumbles
books. which he drops all over the Wis
ltor. Countess swishes out OF the far end
OF the corridor.

mouth. Second-B tries to give A one
from the shoulder, aiming to deliver d
Knockout blow at the point of the jaw;
but, on reaching for A, b steps on G
and comes down in a heap. knocking
B and G struggle in a hog pile. and the
air is Hurled with the by-play of a theo-
logical controversy. Fourth-Doors fly
open on both sides Of the corridor, and
the hol polloi appear and hugely enjoy
the circus. A and b become dis
e%ntangled. disillusionized and dis
gruntled, while G is kicked
out of sight to get in his fine work
again. 5. A and B tell their re-
spective friends of their terrible en-
counter. A chuckles as he relates how
he gave 1t to the chief clerk on the po-
tato trap. B swears that tap he gave
the way-up clerk on his knowledge box
was worth the fall he had himself, and

Here is another. A big. burly bru-
nette messenger sees a lady trying to
find something she has dropped. Lady
backs off, looking down. He follows,
STOPPING muchly. Venetian door flies
open, strikes him where he is broadcast.
and he slides like a base-runner for
second. Lady goes off her feet and
comes down like IA plummet on the very
