How FightWill Be Conducted The following from the Philadelphia Public Ledger of to day glvee an outline of the p'an of the Republican State chief to overcome the Fllnn outfit's obstruction plan: "Every opportunity will be given the Fllnn controlled Republican State committee, headed by his agent.

Henry G. Wasson. to squarely carry out tne declarations of Roosevelt as to the comDosttlon of the electoral ticket. Committees representing leading Re publican of the State, Including William T. Tllden and Howard B.

French, of this city, will first appear before the Fllnn committee and suggest mat inasmuch a Roosevelt haa proposed that his electors leave the Republican ticket, the vacancies should be filled by Republicans and not men who nave Joined the Progressive party. "In case the mnn committee refuses to accept these recommendation and fill the vacanciea from a list which will be furnished them by the Republican committee a radical step will be taken. The remaining members of the Rertublican State committee, almost a majority, will All the vacancies snd transmit them to the Secretary of the Commonwealth as the proper cer tification. "In the event that this becomes nec essarv. and Fllnn leader say that It will, there will be a suit started in the Dauphin County Court to compel the Secretary of the Commonwealth to print the electors certified to him by the true Republican committee.

"Attorney General Bell. Repre sentative M. E. Olmsted and other lawyers have given opinion that the majority members of the Republican State committee no longer repreaent the Republican party by their action In Chicago In agreeing to withdraw and enter the Progressive State com mitee which Is to be formed. It is the opinion of these lawyers that the court will hold that members of another party have no equity or Justice before the law in dominating Republican party politics.

"If it should be necessary to go to court the Republican leaders will be gin at once the reorganization or tne party, beginning with the dismissal of Henry G. Wasson as Republican na tional committeeman from Pennsylvania and followed by his ousting from the chairmanship of the State committee. The Republican national committee, under the terms of a reso lution adopted at the last convention, has power to remove a national committeeman. Wasson will be charged with duplicity and accused of being the agent of Fllnn."

By BUI LARGE CHECKS Pennsy Employes Get Large Checks and Are Still Working Hard BIG CAR SHORTAGE Is Anticipated and May Mean a Rush of Business For August Notwithstanding the fact that the freight movement for July wa less than during the month previous, the check now being distributed by the Pennsylvania Railroad are surprisingly large.

When both the Middle and Philadelphia division cars have completed their monthly trip at the close of this week a total of $500,000 will have been distributed to employe In Harrisburg and vicinity. This doe not Include the Northern Central pay, which will reach 850,000. Thia large pay Is explained a the result of the men making more time. Instead of running heavy trains, the Pennsy haa been making up short trains, and also making excellent time In getting the freight to its destination. Freight may have been lighter during July, but train movement was heavier and the men were kept busy.

The same condition existed on the Philadelphia and Reading system, and on Saturday the employes of that road will get their checks, which will total $60,000 to Harrisburg and Rutherford employes. Reports from all shipping centers indicate that there will be a big Increase in car shortage during August and September and that by October the shortage will not be far short of 75,000 cars. In view of this prediction shipper are now getting out all of their large orders as rapidly as possible so they will not suffer any very great Inconvenience when the shortage is felt. This means that the present month will be a busy period for all railroads and already both the Pennsy and Reading report business that Indicates still larger checks for their employes next month. "If the weaker lines do not steal our car and get them tied up In congested yards, the big railroads will be all right this fall for handling the anticipated traffic," said an influential director of the Pennsylvania and several other Important railroads on Saturday.

"The chief difficulty is going to be a lack of sufficient terminal facilities." This same view came yesterday from Chicago in the following news dispatch explaining the situation as seen there: "Indications for a large business are becoming more pronounced. Hardly a railroad In the country ha sufficient terminal facilities and equipment to handle the Immense traffic that Is confronting them In the West for the next six month. "It is not expected that the congestion will become acute until October, snd unless weather conditions are favorable the closest students of business and traffic conditions predict that the railroads will be unable to handle the immense volume of tonnage offered for shipment. Traffic over all railroads Is steadily enlarging and earnings are showing Increases from week to week. July returns of loadings and earnings are the most satisfactory In months."

Steel, of Altoona, well known In this city, a freight conductor for the Pennsylvania Railroad, was instantly killed at Denholm by the Quaker City Express. George Kutz Killed When Struck by Draft Struck by a draft of passenger cars at the Union Station Saturday night, George Kuts, an electrician for the Pennsylvania Railroad, received Injuries which caused his death at the Harrisburg Hospital two hours after the accident happened.
