For the past several months the

ritory.
A reduction was promised and at
the request of the commission the

The new tariff. in the opinion Of
the members Of the commission does
not better exist ng conditions 10 any
great extent. and it is probable that
at today's meeting complaint
against that company will be drafted.
1t is claimed that the express rates
from Los Angeles TO Globe is much

to Globe is not materially greater
