TOP OCA, Kan., Sopt. lti.-The State
Hoard of Railway Commissioners has pre
pared a tariff sheet providing a reduction
In freight rates of aliout 33V per cent
which It will present to tho legislature if

2-cent fare without a special session or
of facing a tight for freight reductions.

bus been working for some months on the
new distance tariff rates and has figures
so that an Investigation could be quickly
