The independent protested againsy allowing these gentlemen to appear, claiming that the standing rules of the senate prohibited them. A point of )m'l!m raised on Monday to the effect that it needs of the several estab. senators had would require a two-thirds vote to change the rules was overruled by the president Trouble from th The fight commenced as soon the senate.was called When motion was made to go into committee the whole Stewart called for the r ing of a number of bills which had be by their titles this afternoon.

The doors were locked and the sergeant-at-arms sent after Senator Grey, who was the only At the end of ten minutes the ofticer brought in the senator. As soon as further proceed- ings under the call were dispensed with Stewart moved to adjourn. The chair ruled the motion out of order for the reason that a roll call was pending. On the motion to go into committee of the whole Dysart changed his vote to aye and __before he cgutd move a reconsideration the ~&elir Bad called Senator Mattes to the chair., Then the independents began to filibuster and for an hour they prevented the effecting of the purpose for which the evening session had been called. With Mattes in € and. Stewart, Dysart and Dale led the fight, Stewart's motion that the committee rise was not agreed to and loud calls for a divi- sion were ignored by the chairman Innumerable appeals were taken from the decisions of Chairman Mattes and he put them in a manner that tickled the crowd im “All who favor sustaining the de- cision of the chair say aye.” A chorus of ayes would float upon the smoke-tainted atmosphere and the opposition vote would then bo called for in this manner: “All those opposed say mo. The chair is sus tained.” The independents would cateh * their breaths and fall back helplessly in their chairs, overcome by the superb presiding genius of the senator from Otoe. Of course they protested and waxed indignant, but that was all the good it did. Senator Stew- art said he favored putting on hats and walking out, to which Senator North re- plied, *“Go ahead, there is no striug tied to you.” No one walked out. Did for Dysart, Senator Dysart had o grie the body went into committee of the whole e appealed from a decision of the presdent, but the licutenant governor sat down on him and told him that his point was raised 00 late, out that it would properly come on again later in committee of the whole Dysart waited his time, and when th matter came up in the committee raised n ipoint of order. Chairman Mattes promptly ruled it out of order. Tao senator fry Nuckolls protested, saying that he had been promised that the point should be consid ered in committee, and that when he ap pealed before he was told that he came too ate. He wanted to know why this was thusly “Phat was another chairinan,” coolly re plied Mattes, while the tickled gallries eacchinated cxcessively Dysart’s chair caught him before ho fell to the floor. st Jump. tonigght to order. as a of that the senate On this the whole. entee. nce.

They insisted that in order that the proceedings might be perfeetly reg. ular the committee should rise and the sen ate take a recess in order to allow the gen tlomen to speak. The republicans gave in at the end of an hour, only because they saw that they would be ablé to make no pro gress unless they did give m.

Creanwarer, Neb, March 1.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bee]—This community was the scene today of a species of ruffan- ism not oftenexcelled even in the west. P. W. Hyatt employed a man on his farm about a year ago. He suys the man took one of his horses out of the stable without his permis- sion and caused it to break its shoulder by rough usage. In settling with the man he held back part of his wages on account of the injured horse. The man sued him, but Hyatt got judgment for more than he had re- tained out of his wages. Today the hired man with one friends came to town, hunted Hyatt tried to get intoa fight with him. Hyatt stepped away from them and left town on foot. As S00n us the two men found he had left for home they followed him on horseback with a cowboy's lariat and revolvers, They forced him to throw them his pocketbook. They took out the money and threw it down and orderod him to pick it up, intending to rope him while doing so. Hyatt had nothing with which to defend himself but a pocketknife and had all he could do to keep the rope off. Although both his antagonists were large men they sought to get the lariat around his neck before they would approach him. They drew guns and orderea him to lay his knife down. Luckily for Hyatt some corn shellers came in ight at this juncture and the rufifans ran away. This is the second time Hyatt has been forced to give up his money.
