Brewery Workers
Runaway Version

Editor, Press-I would like 70
answer a statement appearing IN
the Chronicle OF July 80 regard
ing the runaway of Mr. Bernard
Schade's team from the Hence
brewery which was written in "a
manner to make the public believe
that the team was turned loose by
someone connected with the
United Brewery workmen. AS a
member Of the beer drivers unien
would like to state that l was on
the ground when the runaway oc-
Cured. Mr.. Schade and Mr.. Ischi
came to the Hence brewery about
$50. Mr.. Ischi came into the
stable and stated that he and Mr..
Schade had just come from the
Galland-Burke brewery and on
their way had found that a hame
strap had been cut. This they
blamed on someone at the Galland-
Burke brewery. We gave Mr..
Schade another hame strap and he
left the broken one in the stable
at the Hence brewery. We found
that it had not been cut, but was
broken probably by starting the
team too quickly. have the strap
now to prove this assertion. Mr..
Schade and Mr.. Ischi both appear
ed to be So drunk that l don't be-
lieve they knew whether they were
on a streetcar or in a buggy.
Shortly after they came into the
brewery yard the shipping clerk
came out of the office and said that
the team had run away. Mr..
Schade, Mr.. Ischi and the Hence
drivers ran out and saw the team
going at break-neck speed down
Fifth av. toward Hangman creek.
Phillip SchoeSler, one of our own
drivers, had his horse and buggy
led in the alley and he got it and
started in pursuit of the team. In
a short time he brought the team
back to the brewery. Mr.. Schade
had in the meantime taken a car
and gone home and Mr.. Schoesler
took the team and Mr.. Ischi to the
Schade brewery. l don't believe
this looks as If any of our mem
bers had turned the team loose. If
so, why should one Of our mem
bers, the oldest one in Spokane,
chase after the team and bring it
back to their home?
The runaway was started by "A
weight hitched to the team and
thrown around a tree. The weight
was on the near horse and the
team was on the south side of the
street facing west into the sun.
This made the horses restless and
they kept pulling back, as the
weight strap was saving across the
off horses legs. 1t got him ex-
cited and when they got the
weight loose they started.
Mr.. Schade said a man in the
brewery yard tola him he had seen
someone at the horses head as he
came to the brewery. Now, this Us
fact. He saw Mr.. Schade ana
Mr. Ischi putting in the hane
strap which we had given them to
replace the one broken in their
hilarious ride from the Galland-
Burke brewery. The party who
told him this is plumber who
lives near the brewery. He prob
ably thought it would prolong his
stay so that he could get few
more drinks of free beer by max
ing statements that would keep the
boys here and the beer flowing
freely. The reason the bit was out
of the horses mouth was that the
heavy weight broke the bride and
pulled it out. Yours truly, w. A..
