United states Consul Parker at Birming-
ham, England, has contributed to the state
Department a special report on the re-
markable development OF the business OF
making steel tubing at that place, caused
by the great increase in the use of the bi-
cycle. Incidentally, he tells of shrewd
Yankee business transaction which has
placed the British bicycle makers in bad
plight.
The American manufacturers foreseeinga
great demand for wheels, not only pur-
chased alf OF the stock OF steel tubing on
hand in England, hut gave orders that en-
gagged the output OF many Of the factories
for long time to come. Andso it happened
that when the craze" struck England the
British bicycle makers found that they had
been caught mapping and were short OF
material.
Immediately there was a rush to start
up new stce! tube plants, and so many have
been projected that overproduct ion is
feared in the end, but meanwhile there is i
stringency.
To show the extent of the Increased ex-
port of this tubing to the United States. the
consul says that while the entire export for
1894 was Ss5, ,sgg, tina for the first quarter
of this year amounts already to S23l 200.
Meanwhile. there has been great decrease
in the export OF finished British bicycles
to The United States and their value has
fallen from SI7S, $40 in the first six months
OF 1893, to $50 SO 5 for so much of the cur
rent year as has expired.
Liquid plugs is the name Of a new de-
vice patented by a Hagerstuwn, Md, man
:OT healing punctures in tires. Liquid
plugs is, as its name implies, liquid
substance that is pumped into the tire
with an ordinary air pump, and that is al
That is required. 1t only adds two and
half ounces To tile weight OF the tire, aud
it will last as long as the tire. In cases
Of puncture this liquid is forced into the
hole by the air in the tube and almost i'm
mediately sOlidfies. stopping up effectual-
y the puncture while the rider is on the
wheel.
The virtue of such an arrangement need
not be explained. A man may puncture
his tire with a nail pin or thorn, and pre-
cisely at the moment of rhe puncture the
-emedy is at hand aud applies itself. In
fact, tire may be punCtUred aud actually
healed without the rider being aware of
what has occurred.
In the presence OF a representative of
American Cycling and number OF wheel
men the tire OF a carrier bicycle was pune
cured over a hundred times with batpin,
and Immediately the holes were filled
without in the least disfiguring the tire.
This new discovery can he used on any and
all pneumatic tires as they are now made,
and patches, plugs, etc. are entirely done
away with at considerable saving of time,
expense aud trouble.
