NO CHANGE
In Models For Next
Years Bicycles.
National American Company Refused
to Enter the Trust.

W IbsSt WV s'hSas
The National American Cycle Co.
is busy closing up the books for the
year.
While the business done during
the year just ended has not been as
large as might be hoped by the COM
pany, yet there is not much room for
complaint, considering the season,
which was very late.
The total output of wheels will ag-
gregate 10000. The National Ameri-
can cOmpany's wheels have enjoyed
fine reputation this year, and indi-
cations are that if next season is
favorable an exceptionally large bus
mess will be done.
Secretary and Treasurer Chas. II.
Baker of the company says that the
models for 1900 will not differ much
from those of 1899. About the only
change will be in the ornamental
work. Plain, rich cOlors will take
the place of fancy designs in transfer
work.
The Bicycle Trust of America will
hold its annual meeting in New
York Thursday. The meeting will
be for the purpose of electing new
officers. 1t is an item of importance
to know that the National American
Cycle company has enthusiastically
placed, itself on record as being
against the trusts. Repeated efforts
have been made to get the company
to go into the trust, but without
avail, the management much pre-
ferring to conduct the business on an
independent scale.
During the past season the Ma
tional American Cycle company has
given employment to about 800 men.
At present the force of men at work
is reduced greatly, owing to the fact
that the busy season is ended. The
employees were kept working about
two months longer than was the case
at other bicycle factories throughout
the country.
Work will be resumed about the
middle of September, when a busy
run will continue until the close of
next season.

did not indicate that his intentions
were to hold up McFeeley. What

The police started to hunt the ne
gro and found him Wednesday fore
noon. He was brought in by Officer
John King between 10 and IL O'Clock

Akron's famous foot ball team will
be in the game this fall.
Arrangements are already being
made to get together and perfect the
organization.
The first question to be settled is
the selection of manager. 1t is the
general belief that Harold A. Barn.
hart is the man for the place. If he
can be induced to acceptit he will be
given the place.
With the splendid reputation es-
tablished in the last few years, Ak
ron will have no trouble in getting
good dates. Practically all of the
old men have signified their inten-
tion of getting back in the game
again this year. The choice of a
captain is another early move.
Hutchinson, ''Old Hutch,' as the
rooters were III the habit of calling
him, is undoubtedly the choice of a
majority of the players for this re-
sponsible position.
Practice will begin early and the
team will be in splendid condition
for the season when the first game is
called.

The Democratic war upon the
trusts is evidently nothing more OF
les, than q ill;n:y disguised assault
on the Republican protective tariff
system. Take. for instance. the
following extract from an edito-

The protective tariff Was de

tacturers from foreign competition

Under the stimulus Of protec-

Of invention the American factories

results were combines to regulate
the output and the price. Out Of
these combines have grown the
great trusts and consolidated indus
tries.
