III is reported that some Eastern BIZ
| cycle manufacturers have combined to
throw upon the market, before April or
May, 100000 bicycles at $25 each, and
break, if possible, the present fixed
prices of from s85 to $3.50 for high-grade
wheels. 1t is known that certain sew
ing machine companies have been con-
sidering such movement for a long
time.
One of the new tandems for 1896 will
have the drop frame in the rear, thus
putting the lady rider out of harms
way.
| Titus, Cabanne and Murphy, the cy-
| clists permanently suspended by the l..
A. w racing board, will go before that
body at the Baltimore meeting for an
| open session trial. A. G.. Spalding for
whom the men were riding at the time
! of the alleged attempt to fix a race,
| and who intended at one time to bring
suit against the racing board, says he
| has abandoned that course, as he is of
| the opinion that the board will now
favor considering the application of
| the men for reinstatement. It is prob
| able that the L. A. w. authorities will
welcome a satisfactory explanation by
Titus and his fellow riders. Titus has
confessed that he did approach Mur-
ply on the subject of permitting Ca
banne to win race at ST Louis, for
the reason that it was Cabanne's home.
but he claims that the arrangement
went no further than a mere mention
of the matter. BY doing this Titus
shoulders the burden of the scheme.
