HE BLEW HIMSELF.
Victor Wheel Maker "Lived Magnifi-

and Busted.

Springfield, Mass, Jan. There is
every reason to believe that within an
other week the plant of the Overman
Wheel company will be running on full
time in Chicopee and with a complete
complement of men.
When asked what precipitated the fail
ure. Mr.. Overman said:
Eighteen hundred and ninety-six was a
ban, panicky year, and about the only
thing that seemed to prosper was the BIZ
cycle industry. There was a craze for
wheeling and the people bought bicycles
whether they could afford them or not.
Hundreds of manufacturers who were not
making a living in other lines of industry
began to make bicycles, and the result
was that there was a great overproduc-
ton. so that the year 1897 found these
machines marketed below cost thus de-
preciating profits in the legitimate trade.
The failure of about 200 of these so-called
bicycle makers caused suspicion of BIZ.
cycle paper in the market and made it
hard to market good paper"
Mr.. Overman has been prominent in
Springfield society and has entertained
lavishly though the list of those hidden
to his feasts was very exclusive.
Some years ago, when the Victor wheel
first began to be prominent Mr.. Overman
bought a building lot at the corner of
Pearl and Federal streets and built a
house on it. The residence, although not
handsome externally, was costly, but it
was nothing when compared with the sta
bles he erected in the rear of it.
They were of brownstone. built in old
English style, with a high tower and a
Flagstaff, and the horses in the stables
were up to the high standard of the build
ing. The barn really eclipsed the house
and Springfield people marveled at it.
Mr.. Overman's factories being some
three miles from his home, he found it
inconvenient to go home for lunch every
day, and as there was no restaurant near
by that he cared to patronize, he had an
elaborate kitchen put up in one of the
factory buildings and hired a sl1illful chef.
His lunches were served in his office, and
his office force was also allowed to or
der their lunches from the same place.
