The reduction in ast-bOund freight rates de-
manded by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad was to
lower figures than at first reported. The tariff rates
asked for were the basis Of eleven cents per lOO
pounds grain from Chicago to New-York, against the
present tariff OF fifteen cents. Tho company declares
that have been Of st. Louis 10 the basis OF the
reduction demanded the offenders being the indianapolis

The reduction Is called for under a rulo Of the pool
