Baker, Jan.' 10. 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. "I'm completely up in

Washington, Jan. 10. The output
of anthracite coal in the United
States in 1915 was approximately
79,100,000 tons, as against 81,090,000
tons in 1914, according to a report
to the Department of the Interior by
the Anthracite Bureau of Information
at Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Practically all
of the anthracite was mined in that
State. -'- -
Of the 1915 output, over 66,000,000
tons were shipped to tidewater. . The
