NO MORE CHEAP WHEELS.
High Grade bicycles at High Prices will
Rule Next Year.

The low-prlccd bicycle will not bo main
tanned any more, unless under extraordinary
circumstances, that nre not likely TO arise
for It's benefit. Theynnnufacturer Of stand
ard wheels have taken energetic action 10
extermlnntc the demorallzlng cheap mn.
chine, and adopted system which will bc
effective In keeping the low-priced bicycle
from becoming acompetitor ngaln.
The Pope Manufacturing Company, the
Gurmulley n jeffrey Company, and other
leading makers Of high-class bicycles, have
been at work for some time trying 20 devise
scheme by which the influence Of cheap
bicycles could be checked. Their efforts
were assisted by other manufacturers and
the movement eliminated during the week
ut meeting held In the Hotel Waldorf,
New York. What was supposed 10 be d
meeting Of wrought iron pipe manufacturers
w0s really a meeting OF the manufacturers
OF bicycle tubing. There wcro representa-
tives present from each Of the II firms manu-
featuring that class Of tubing, and n com
pact was entered into which will drive out
the cheap wheels.
The bicycle manufacturers and tube manu-
incturers held n common grievance against
the makers Of the low-priced wheels. The
cheapening OF bicycles as complete machine
also had n cheapenlng effect upon the price
OF tubing, go that while the manufacturers
sold much more tubing from the combined
demand Tor material, the results were much
less satisfactory from business standpoint
than without the numerous shops where the
cheap machines were made.
There are two branches Of bicycle makers.
The one makes most Of the parts, except the
tubing, completing their own machines.
There are others known as "assemblers.
who buy chains at one place, sprockets ut
another, handle bars and saddles from an
other, etc, put the parts all together, and
nlupn the tuHagla nm tho mi rLat tpIi
plate on thorn. The stock Is bought by job
bers, auctioneers. drysoods houses. jewellers
and others. II IL these wheels that have cut
into the price.
The object Of the new organization IL 10
knock out the assemblers, so that they will
be forced out Of competition with the con-
Germs who can make most Of their own parts.
With this object In view, the moneyed men
In the business have for some time past been
buying stock In all the tubing plants until
they have absolute control Of the majority OF
stock and all the patents.

| SOME IMPROVEMENT IN BUSINESS.
DUN'S REVIEW.
The Inflow Of Gold Gives Tone To
Trade.
n. q. Dun a Co. e review Of trade asys

n. q. Dun a Co.'s review Of trade nsys;
A very moderate and yet distinct improve
ment is seen, no longer only In the buying Of
materials, which continues and stlffens
prices, but also In orders for products Of
some industries In money markets, and In
exdorts Of staples. II IL as yet little more
than n step toward better things, but has al
ready started some important works and
prompted n few considerable contracts. Con
tinuing arrivals OF gold have raised the treas
ury reserve above s125, 100000. strengthen
ing the banks and relaxing the stringency In
commercial leans, &C. that at about per cent
lower rates more business was done than In
three previous weeks Honrding IL no longer
reported, but some boards are being unlock
ed. The movement OF crops continues large,
and purchases for exports have advanced
prices or prevented depression. While the
gain In working force Is not great, II seems
clear that for the first time In many months
there " some not gain.
An important change IL the general ad-
vance In produce markets, especially In
wheat which rose sharply on Thursday and
Friday, closing 5l6c higher for the week,
with much buying, apparently on foreign
account. Reports Of the crops abroad were
supposed TO be- the chief cause, az visible sup
plies In this country increased largely, but
for the first time since July 1 western re-
cepts fell below those OF the same week last
year They are still large. and for tho first
quarter OF the crop year thus far have been
j2 I2l, 1853 bushels, against 40, i1i 1851 Inst year,
n gain OF about 80 per cent and II n concei-
vnble, but cannot be considered quite pro-
bnble that such receipts have come from n
crop smaller than last years, although prices
aNcrage 10Ac lower In July and Csc lower In
August thnn last years In September because
OF the sharp decline then, and as much nd
vance now.
Cotton advanced an eighth week ago,
but lost three-sxteenths, and with full re-
ceipts might have gone farther but for the
resumatlon OF work by several important
mills. Speculative buying Of wool does not
nbnte, sales for four weeks having been a.
s54, 400 pounds against 23,75s, $40 pounds
last yenr, and 81 02i 900 pounds In 1892, but
no galn In prices results The sales are
largely for cash and by holders who have
maturing notes to meet, though some have
been for export In spite OF II decline Of o per
cent In the London opening. A few Of the
woolen mills ARE resumng. the belated de-
mand for heavy goods constituting most Of
the gain visible, but manufacturers show
confidence that more goods will be wanted
when the future IL more clear Finished
products OF iron meet more inquiry.

MARTIAL LAW IN LEADvILLE.
The Citizens Have Lost Confidence in Local
Authority.

At meeting of the citizens committee Of
Leadville, Col, 1t was decided to make a re-
quest through the militia to Gov. Mcintyre
to declare martial law. Adjt.-Gen. Moses
conversed with the governor over the tele-
phone relative to this demand.
The citizens Of Leadville have lost con-
fldence In the sheriff and his deputies. In the
mayor and the board Of aldermen, and even
In the civil courts. They declare that no
punishment Is dealt out to offenders, as
numerous recent events show, and they be-
lieve the only way to suppress the desperate
characters Of the miners union Is through
martial law and martial courts
Gov. Mcintyre sent telegram Of instruc-
tion to Gen. Brooks, at Leadville, giving that
officer full power to act as his representative
In suppressing riot In that city or district.
Gen. Brooks Is specifically instructed to per-
NIT no interference from any source what
ever. and to act with or without the cooper
alton Of the local authorities as he may deem
wise. This gives the military all the instruc-
tions they need, and practically places the
camp under martial law, so far as Is required
to compel the sheriff to do his duty.

That Russia is undergoing pro-
cess of industrial transformation is
illustrated by evidence to be found ut
the national exposition which is being
held at the ancient city OF Mini, at
the junction of those two great water
arteries of the empire, the Volga and
the Okla. This is historically one of
the most important trading centers of
the country. From time immemorial
tho Russians have exchanged at this
point their native products for those
OF the Tartars, the Chinese, tho Per-
SLAMS, the Bukharans, the Turks, the
Arabs and the Hindus. The regular
fair of Mini is held every year, and
the transactions of which it is the oc-
casion are said to amount to about q
billion roubles in the space of two
months. 1t is not surprising, there
fore, that the Gar chose Mini for the
location of the grand exposition. But
there is yet another reason. Mini was
the cradle of Russian independence.
1t was there that the first Romanoff
was elevated to the seat of power,
Michael, founder of the imperial dy-
nasty. The ordinary population Of
the city is about $4,000, but during
the time of the annual fair it attains
to nearly million and quarter. 1t
may be imagined, then, how great is
the present concourse of people in the
old city.

THE EGIN MASSACRE.
Details of the Great Turkish Tragedy Re
ceived at Constan tinople.

Details received at Constantinople regard
ing the massacre at Egin in the vilayet Of
Kharput, shows 1t occurred on the 10Th and
18th Of the present month. The Kurds at
tackled the Armenian quarters, killed large
numbers of the inhabitants and pillaged and
burned their houses. Many Armenians es-
capped to the mountains.
According to the accounts OF the Turkish
government GOO Armenians were killed at
Egin and these advices also state that the
outrage was provoked by the Armenians
firing into the Turkish quarters.
The Armenians Of Egin escaped the mas
sacre OF 1895 by purchasing their security
with money and produce.
1t Is feared here that the massacre at Egin
is the beginning of n fresh series Of massa-
cres In Armenia.
A special cabinet meeting has been held
at the palace in order to consider plans for
completing the defenses OF Dardaneles as
proposed by the Russian general, Tschikat-
scheff, who inspected these Notifications
some time ago, which was regarded az indi-
eating an understanding between Turkey
and Russia for defensive PURPOSES.

whole number Of pensioners on June 80,
1896, was 970,67S. While the rolls show a
slight gain In numbers over the year i'm
mediately preceding, the amount disbursed
for pensions was Sl3S, ,2li, ,76l, a decrease OF

year. There were 405,664 pension claims
pending at the close Of the fiscal year, 1884,
387 being applications for increases made by
persons on the rolls.

lyman MAKES AN APPEAL.
He Protests Against His Extradition to tho
American Ambassador TO France.


The United States Ambassador to France,
James u. Eustis, has received n letter from
7. j. +. lyman, the alleged dynamite con
spirator now In custody at Doulogne-Sur-
Mcr, dated Tuesday, September 10. lyman
wrote that he arrived In the United States In
March. 1883; that shortly after England de-
manded his extradition. and that the United
States refused II on the ground that the Of
lenses alleged was purely political. In April,
1883, lyman continued. he was naturalized
by Judge DAILY. He now resides. he wrote,
with his wife, children and two servants In
villa on the Hudson; and he referred to
Judge Fitzgerald and Judge Roger A. Pryor
as his friends.
Referring to his presence in France mt this
time, lyman states that he left New York on
an European tour, and TINT upon being in
formed that he was shadowed by Scotland
Yard detectives he travelled under an as-
sumed name, went to Italy, Belgium aud
France, and was booked to return TO New
York by the Saale, sailing from Cherbourg
on September 30
Further, lyman pledged his honor that he
had not taken part In any affair Of political
nature while In France, and that he had not
done anything beyond the ordinary sight
seeing and observation Of the common
American tourist. He appealed to Mr.. Eus-
ts to intercede with the French government
not to surrender him to England, as such n
surrender, he adds, would mean certain
death to him.
In conclusion lyman wrote; "I am sure
that the gallant nation that Ireland gave
Fontenoy to blazon on their banners will
not help England by my surrender. II you
will graciously urge my request, your excel
lency, upon the French government. you
will not only receive my thanks but that Of
millions of the Irish all over the globe"
Mr.. Eustls Immediately notified the French
government OF the receipt OF the letter and
of the fact that lyman is an American
citizen

followed by many rife shots from the vcin-
ity ofthe barrlcadcs surrounding the mine,
which are thought TO have been fired by an
attacking force to cover the retrent Of dynn-
miters In an attempt upon tho works. The
shooting listed about ten minutes, and was
followed by scattered firing.
Five dead bodies lying at the morgue and
