For offices in this district, which embraces Ball oOlces in tbe oil region, tbe reduction of al' rates not special, for distances not over one hundred miles, will be about thirty-three percent. For distances between one hun dred and two hundred miles, nearly forty per cent; In some distances it is still great er. Since the inauguration of tbe square system, tbe endeavor to equalize tbe rates by rednotion bas been unremitting, and It is believed tbat the schedule which goes into effect to-day has lully attained the de- aireu uujeci.
