Columbia Brewing Company's plants, to-day
presents an entire change in appearance and
is a scene of great activity. This morning
about 90 working men and number of carts
were put to work to raze the old stable which
will be replaced by large, spacious and sub
stantial brick structure. The work is being
pushed with vigor by President Brewer who
expects the new structure to be finished with
in period of six weeks. The building of
the new stable will temporarily inconvenience
the officials and employees of this prosper
GUS enterprise, as it is necessary to quarter
their large number of horses in several livery
stables about town. The dimensions of the
new structure will be 80 lie feet. No e1.
pense as to convenience and modern improve
ments will be spared, and when completed
will cost $4,000 1t will be a brick structure
three stories in height. with basement large
enough to stable AZ head of horses. Eleva.
tors and electric lights will also be intro
duced Upon its completion the Columbia
Company will be better prepared to serve it'
patrons.

SONDAY CAUGHT.
Evidence of HIS Guilt Found on His Per
son at Last.


About two weeks ago the HERALD pub
lished an account of how Lukas Sonday, q
Slav residing near the Shenandoah City col
liery, was tortured to make Shin confess to
robbery He was hung by the arms to q nail
in the wall of his bedroom and lighted
matches were applied to the soles of his feet.
He steadfastly maintained his innocence and
caused the arrest of the men who tortured
him. They are under bail for trial.
Yesterday SOnday was before Justice
Toomey, charged with stealing SS from Mrs.
Andrew Kossar, silver watch belonging to
her husband and $50 belonging to a boarder.
Mrs. Kossar stated that the watch and $50
were stolen on August 1st. On the 10th inst,
while she was sleeping, and Sonday was the
only other person in the house, the man took
from her dress a pocketbook containing IS.
She felt convinced Sonday was the thief, but
did not take any action until yesterday,
when she saw Sonday change a watch from
one pocket to another. She identified the
watch as the one stolen on the LIST inst. with
the $50 and grabbed Sonday. The latter
broke away, ran upstrairs and then jumped
from a second story window but was caught
by men who were attracted by the woman's
cries and held until COnstables Giblon and
DandO arrived.
When before Justice Toomey Senday told q
peculiar story. He said that be was lying on
bed in his boarding house on August Isl
when he saw another boarder named Andrew
Pietchock break open the trunk of another
boarder named Whitechack Kawajs and
take $50. He says he also saw Pietehoch
take Kossars watch. He watched the mar
go to an outhouse and hide the stolen articles
After Pietchock went away the prisoner
went to the clubhouse and got the money anC
watch and held them until yesterday
! Upon this statement PietchOck was ar
rested, but Justice Toomey discharged him

varicator Of the first water. Sondsy wa

SHERMAN ON CANADA.
Incidentally He Refers to the Alien
Land Laws.

Lana LaWS.
New York, July 24.-The World says:
Secretary of State John Sherman is at
the Fifth Avenue hotel. lie Will leave
at once for AmaganseTt, L. l., where
he will rest for several weeks.
The secretary was asked what he
thought of the report that the Cana
dian government proposed to enforce
the alien law against American miners
now flocking 10 the Klondyke gold
fields.
L don't know" said the secretary,
I'VE have an alien law OF our own. We
have never enforced it against gold
miners. Canadian citizens nave been
free TO come to the United States and
mine for gold under the same terms
that our citizens did. There has not
never been any friction over the mat
ter, and | do not anticipate any seri-
Gus trouble with our Canadian neigh
bors on that score.
Where a man has taken up a land
claim for the purpose of residence and
cultivation, We have always insisted
that he be citizen; the same has been
done under the Canadian government.
Where d man has simply proSDected
for gold with the intention of digging
in the ground a little ways and taking
what he could find, he has never been
interfered with on our side of the Dor
der.
i do not think that the Canadian
government VIII change that course of
procedure. If they do it may lead to
fully as much embarra sSmant to them
as to our miners.
r rom the meagre reports already
received it looks as if there might be
as much gold on our side of the Alaska
line as on theirs"
Asked about the Bearing sea Incl
dent. he laughed and said: The letters
published in the English papers, to-
gether with their headlines, are being
700 readily received as the sentiment of
the nation. The English government
has made no response to the letter re-
ce4veI by Minister Hay in regard 10
the Behnng sea matter and its foreign
office has said nothing of a belligerent
nature.
'Elgland mas fully as much, if not
more at stake in the seal trade as we
have. London is the center of the fur
trade of the world. not only in the buy
ing and selling of furs, but in their
dressing and preparation tor the mar
ket.
These matters will be fairly aGju-
dicated and that without trouble.
America has commended and believes
she is right in her contention that
something must be done, and done at
once or the seal race Will soon be eX- |
tinct in Alaskan waters.

PlNGREE POSITIVE.
Portions of the Tariff Bill, Unpatrf-
otto and Unfair.

Detroit, Mich. July Ex-Governor H.
5. Pingree today wired the following
message in duplicate to the president,
Senator Burrows, Congressman Corllss
and Spaulding of Michigan:
Il regard the duty on lumber, hides
and sugar as unrepublican, unpatriotic
and unfair.
THE lumber now used goes largely
into small homes and farm houses, and
to a class already greatly overtaxed-
The laborer wears twice as many shoes
as the millionaire, and must contrib
ute twice as much for the tax ON
hides He must use as much sugar
and pay as much toward the duty on
sugar.
TT is grossly unfair to make the poor
pay as much per capita as the rich
toward the support of government
Properties not human stomachs, should
be taxed Property is protected by our
laws and should pay for its protection.
