The meeting will probably be held next Tuesday, and Tuesday night the report will be mailed out to all persons whose names are being listed. It may be possible that the committee, when making their report, will recommend tho establishment of rate department by the Chamber of Commerce, where ail matters of discrimination by the railroads against Augusta will be promptly fought.
