THE FIRST BREAK IX THE HIGH PRICE. BRIGADE. Springfield, Nov. 22. After all the de bate which has gone on regarding the price of '94 model wheela, the firat of the leader in the trade to bodily announce prices for the ensuing year in the Over man Wheel Company, which now makes public the fact that Victore for 'Oi will be lifted at $125 inntead of 150. This price applies only alter January 1, 1S94. The action of the Chicopee Falls people will force the other leaders in the trade to show their hands and announce their plans and prices for the ensuing year, as the Overman Wheel Company has done. This will be an advantage to everyone connected with sport. The uncertainty heretofore existing as to what prices were to be demanded next year by the great makers ban had a particularly baneful effect upon a trade which is at present more in need of stimulation than it ia of any retarding treatment at the hands of those who control it. With all the talk regarding next season's prices which has gone on for the pat three months, the buyer has declined to even consider his purchase of his next season's mount until he knew something definite regarding the price thereof, while th dealer, himself in the dark regarding same, has also refused to lay any plans for the future until he was in possession of something more substantial than ru mors. We believe the Overman Wheel Company by announcing the price of its '94 patterns has conferred a distinct fa vor upon the whole of cycling from a standpoint of sport as well as trade. With Victors in the market at $ 125 it will be a bold maker who will announce a higher figure without a great deal of thought upon the subject. The Over man Company has thrown a bomb shell into the fort of high prices which will cause an awful scattering for cover on the part of the small fry who have here tofore been waiting to ses what the big guns intended doing. It looks as though 1 he Victor next year again intended to "make the pace" as its makers have al ways claimed it to have done in the past.
