In my opinion it cannot be done automatically.

Currently compression requires an external tool (myisampack). The slave does not start external programs.

One day the pack algorithm may be integrated in the server. But the internal state of the database storage engine tables is not part of replication. You might however send a feature request that "compress" commands (when they are implemented) should be replicated. You can do this on http://bugs.mysql.com/. On the bug reporting page set the "Severity" to "S4 (Feature request)".

Regards,
Ingo
