inceecLE TRUST TAKING SHAPE'.
A. meeting of bicycle manufacturers
;-ook place in Toronto on Tuesday.
The proceedings Wern lint, divulged,
leut it was admitted that negotiations
were gotten ander way which may
result in a big combine or amalgama-
tion to include the leading Canadian
manufacturers. Among the firms said
to he interesteal in the proposed trust
are the Goold Bicycle Co., Brantford;
E. & D. Co., Windsor; Welland Vale,
Gendron and Stearns. The Massey -
'Harris bicycle people have up to the
present asserted that they are not in
any deal. At the meeting in Toronto
favorible consideration was given to
a proposition to amalgamate into a
joint concern, with capital stock of
$3,500,000. Of this amount $2,000,-
000 will be preferred stock, at 7 per
cent. cumulative interest, and the
balance, $1,500,000, will be common
stock. In the event of the deal go-
ing through most of the stock will be
taken by the companies amalgamat-
ing. They state that the °bleat is to
get rid of American competition. If
the amalgamation is consummated it
is probable that Windsor will lose the
Evans & Dodge industry, which em-
ployes several hundred men, and is
one of the city's best manufacturing
establishments. E. L. Goolcl, president
of the Red Bird Clompany, states that
his works will probably be largely in-
ereased. It is believed that the com-
bine will place on the market an ex-
ensive, high-grade wheel, and a well-
re:liable wheel to sell at a low
figure. •The low price wheel will, it is
hoped, compete successfully with the
Western. Wheel Works product, the
Rambler and Other cheap American
bie,ycles, eyhieh are turned out in large

Fell from the Bridge.
Brantford, April U. -Thos. Lowes,
a resident of West Brantford, and a.
moulder by trade, was returning home
from the city yesterday across the
G.T.R. bridge, which, since the wash-
out at the Lorne bridge, is the only
means of communication with that
part of the city. While on the bridge
and. just over the middle of the still
badly swollen river, a train happened
along, and Lowes was forced to stand
on a couple of iron bars of the bridge
to let the cars pass. While in this dan-
gerous position he was either shaken
off ot turned clizzy and lost his hold,
and fell from the bridge. At first he
was observed clutching convulsively at
the iron bars, and hung suspended by
one hand for a moment or two, then
dropped into the river twenty feet be-
low, and was drowned.
