COAL COMMITTEE
TO REPORT TODAY

With the examination of four more
local coal dealers, the Weber club in
}esugating committee completed the
taking OF evidence N the alleged coal
combine yesterday.
1t is intimated that the report Will
contain only the statement that there
IS no combine or conspiracy among
local coal dealers Since taking up
It's work the committee has discovered
that, without the authority which can
only be supplied by the courts, it Is
impossible to carry the investigation
to the mine operators and railroads,
If the report TO be submitted by the
committee contains nothing more than
the assertion that there is no COM
bine among the retail dealers. the ef
forts OF the investigating body will
have practically been without result
other than that the committee learned
the wholesale price charged by mine
operators and the net profit to retail
crs,
To even attempt TO secure from the
coal operators or railroads any eyi-
dence Of an alleged combine without
first basing their authority on legal
Instructions to that effect is consid-
cred by 6he committee a fIuitless en-
Jeayor, The complete detail of the
committees findings will probably be
made public in the very near future,
