Basis Only

The brewers doing business in schuylkill
county to-day inaugurlted a reduction of
price, to ,alooukeepera and other consumers

was sold at So per barrel On the date stated
the war tax Of 81 a barrel went on and the
brewers made the price 3 barrel and $3.50
net The saluonbcepers made protest and
emphasized their remonstrances when the
brewers made rule prohibiting their colleC-
tors from spending money over the bars.
During the past week The Schuylkll
County Brewers held a joint meeting and de-
cidcd upon the plan which went into opera
tion to-day, and at the same time prepared p
circular for distribution among the retail
dealers
The circular referred to sets forth that
after considering the complaints, and the
very depressed condition of business through
out the Anthracite coal region the brewers
have decided TO reduce the price Of beer and
porter to 500 per barrel net, concession
that only those can fully appreciate who are
familiar with the unsatisfactory condition of
the brewing business On account of the
very large increase in the price of barley
and other cereals last fall and winter.

was increased over eighteen per cent.

ACCEPTS HOBSON'S PLAN
Secretary Long Endorses the Brave Young
Lieutenant'S Scheme to Save the
Wrecked Cristobal Colon.

Washington. July % - Lieutenant
HObsun came over from New York Sat
urday night to Washington, ana had
long conference Yesterday with As
sistant Secretary Allen, Captain Brad
ford ana several other officers of the
navy department regarding the raising
Of the Spanish cruiser Cristubal Colon.
The lieutenant succeeded while in New
York in arranging with the Merritt &
Chapman Wrecking company for the
execution Of the plans he had prepared
for saving the vessels. The wreCkers
have promised to get together the pom
tOOns, air bags and compressed air
apparatus which will be required to
lift and right the vessels, and expect
to start this material for Santiago from
New York on a fast vessel within three
days. Lieutenant Hubson is confident
that If the work can be undertaken be-
fore a cylone sets in it will result sue
cessfully.
Secretary Long said yesterday that
the lieutenuuts plan for raising the
Colon seemed entirely feasible to him
Oong) The proposed plan involves
methods ana appliances outside of
those usually employed in wreckng
They neCcssitate the use OF air appl-
ances Of various kinds in rlghting and
raising the ship that rarely, if ever
before, have been used ON vessels of the
size and weight of the Colon, and al
though there is some doubt of its sue
sess the navy department officials think
the prize well worth the experiment.
Lieutenant Hobson returned to New
York yesterday afternoon, and will go
10 Santiago TO supervise the Wrecking
work.
