The equivalent of : 400 barrels of bottled beer now stored in bulk in the brewery of the Ameri can Brewing & Crystal Ice plant in . Baker, amounting to 7200 gallons, will in all probability be poured into the sewer whenever' a revenue officer ar rives in Baker,: according to' Charles Bodeau, manager of . the works. "We have found it impossible to' use machinery 'from the Sam-O. bottling plant." . Mr. Bodeau said this morning, ''and while the beer could be shipped out of the state in bulk we would have to undersell the domestic beer of whatever state we shipped to, elim inating the possibility of profit. The beer will probably be poured out, and listed as a total loss." Mr. Bodeau's decision is the result of t! flra of Sunday morning, when the brewery 'bottling plant was gutted fey fire and the, machinery- housed there, ruined. ' J The brewery manager was nnable to say -what use the main plant will be turned to.
