other roads decided 10 do likewise. AT the

vision aud correction occupied the best part
Of the day and the figures will be official "
given To shippers to-day. The average re-
duction on Missouri Pacific tolls Will be 10 to
10 cents, and the Frisco cut will be equally

the st. Louis roads rally 10 the support Of
