Both the committee appointed for the invss-
tigation OF Republican district leaders and
that appointed to prepare plan for tho reor-
ganization Of the county machine were busy
yesterday formulating their reports. Tho
leaders who have been accused or suspected Of
disloyalty to the party will find the report OF

as the holding OF them individually RESPONSE
Bile Is concerned. The report will declare that
the machine 10 inefficient. and suggest that
more Republican votes can be obtained by a
proper orga niZation.
The Committee on Reorgan izatlon think
they have hit on the proper plan. Both COM
mttees recognize the necessity for using
money liberally. and the plan Of the Reorgan-
izaton COMMITTEES will provide that money
shall be expended so that there. will he tho

cents a ton at wholesale. Members OF the trust
now complain that they are being undersold
by the PENNSYLVANIA operators. who have
shipped 10000 tons to Cleveland alone the past
month.

cut ~ 10 cents u ton In wages. The Executive
Board Of the National Miners Association has
taken the matter In hand and efforts have been
made TO induce the miners OF Pennsylvania to
strike for the same wages as their Ohio breth-
rem. An advance OF 44l cents ton would put
them on the same footing.
