OCEAN RATE WAR.
rho Western Freight Men Disturbed
Over Steamship Ft9ht.

Chicago, Dec ember THE Western
freight men are much disturbed over the
news that the fight between the Mallory
line OF steamships and the Lone Star line
has broken out again. The trouble be-
the low rates that have been made IN
Trailsmisscuri and tranScontinental rates,
and now with the trouble broken out in
renewed force, the roads are fearful that
they will be compelled to reduce their
rates still further 1t is said that in some
instances freight has been carried by tsle
steamship lines from New York to Gulf
OF Mexico ports FOR 2 cents per pound
coast and to Colorado points which the
Western railroads can not hope to equal
and If the steamship companies keen IT
up for any length of me the roads win
have to allow their traffic to go from
them or carry 1t al a loss.

AT THE OPERA HOUSE.

a large audience witnessed the Herr
MAINS entertainment at the opera house
last evening and gave every evidence OF
approval and enjoyment. There was no
little curiosity to see the successor and
nephew of The Great Hermann" and IT
was the general verdict that the mantle
of the noted magician had fallen on
worthy shoulders. The present Hermann
is not so smooth nor so entertaining as
his predecessor In the business, nor does
he command the English language suffi-
cientiy to create the interest In his tricks
and the pleasant impression generally
which We're strong cards with hts uncle,
but he Is nevertheless n very clever artist
in his work and kept the large audience
mystified and amused throughout the
evening.
Margin fact, most-+of the tricks seen
last evening, and the special features of
the programme. were the same as seen
here when the elder Hermann last visit
ed this city. They have lost none OF Their
novelty or mystery. however. and We're
as keenly enjoyed in new hands as ever
The programme was quite elaborate, con-
sisting Of the usual sleight of hand tricks
with TIE cards. the watches, the hats. the
eggs. etc, decapitation scene, the art
lists dream. and Madame Hernmann's
beautiful and bew,ldering dances, which
she seems TO improve upon and add to
constantly. The brilliant effects of cleo
tric appliances and stage fire are rarely
more strkingly displayed than in aid Of
Madame Herrmarn's serpsntine dances.
There were some new features in the pro-
grainrne, of course, one being the Mad of
TIE Neon. an extremely attractive scene,
in which Miss Dot Robinson is the central
fl-ure. Several OF Mr.. Herrmann's tricks
were also new, II was. upon the whole,
a rare evening of magic, mystery and illu-
sion. The waits between acts and scenes
were too hong however, approaching the
tedious at times. This trouble has been
experienced repeatedly of late, and the
marasement of the opera house should
reinetsv It.
Tcnight what is said to be one of the
protest of the various Southern plays,
entitled Human Hearts," viii be seen at
the opera house. The company is report
Cd TO be am unusually strong one, and
both play and company have received the
most hattering notices from the press
The manager. Colonel Caven, is a South
ern man and was formerly a we'll known
newspaper man. He claims TO have the
most attractive purely southern drama on
the road in Human Hearts"

TWO YEARS EXTENSION.
Decision OF the Interstate Commerce
Commission Yesterday.
ROADS MUST EQUIP THEIR CARS.
""iiroad Officials Met mt Fort
worth TO Consider the Union
Depot Proposition.

T.. q, Clark, grand chief OF the order NJ
Hallway Conductors. arrived in Houston
Yesterday morning and spent the day with
tne conductors and trainmens grievance
committees at the Capitol Their work was
rnished during the afternoon and MIR. Clark
departed on the Santa Fe for Iowa last
night. The other visiting railroad men will
leave the city today.
Mr.. Clark is at the head Of one of the
labor organizations Of the country and has
held his present position for the past six
years. He has made a competent officer.
MS duties carrying him to every section OF
inc United States and Canada, and with
MIN lies the responsibility Of adjusting
grievances and settling differences between
the men. He came to Houston direct from
washington, where he attended the session
OF the interstate commerce commission
when the railroads of the country applicd
FOR an extension of time In which to equip
their freight cars with safety appliances
AS has before been noticed in The Post
Morrissey of the Trainmep Arthur OF the
Engineers and Sargent OF the Firemen were
also tnere. 10 reporter for The Pest Nh.
Clark said yesterday that the commission
have not made known that they would give
any extension and that all that has been
published with reference to their action
was guess work There Is little doubt,
however, but that an extension will be
granted. and probably on the time basis
The roads will be given year to equip a
certain per cent Of their unequipped cars,
and any failure to comply with that rcgula-
ton will be punished as the law directs
Mr.. Clark feels that the interests OF tho
railroad laboring men Of the United States
was ably represented in the person OF Mr.
Morrissey, who, 1t will he remembered, ex-
changed words warmly with President
Cowan of the Baltimore and Ihio.
