IaE- LockouT IN MATERaURY.

 Work guapendea in the Granite Yard
 of Charles Jackson q Son.
 The granite cutters employed by Charles Jackson e Son were locked out this morning. Thomas F. Jackson at tended meeting of the granite men in New London last night and the lockout was the result of conference with the officers of the association.
 The younger Mir Jackson was seen by a reporter of the DEMOCRAT this morning and asked why they had locked out their granite cutters. Mir Jackson said they were obliged to take this step at the command of the Granite Manufac- turers' association. "We have no trouble with our men, nor is there any i'll feel ing between us; they understand the situation perfectly well and know that it is better that such action should be taken by us," said Mir Jackson. In re- ply to question of dependence on the Manufacturers association, Mir Jackson said: "We use so many kinds of stone in our yard that we are dependent on the association. If we did not let the men go as ordered, we would be unable to procure stone at reasonable figures, and could not do business. We shall not try to engage new men; we are situ- ated so we'll that we can await the issue; we have about ten men out"
 w. H. Rubey's marble and granite works on Bank street were visited. MT Rubey stated that he would not be in- terfered with at all. "I have all the granite that need at present and get all want whether my workmen are union men or not.
 The officers of the Granite Cutters union were seen in confirmation of MT Jackson's statements. The president of the union said that it was true that they were locked out, and that they had no fault to find with Mir Jackson on this account, as he was only obeying the orders of the association as they would the orders of the union.
 "What will be your next move" was asked.
 "We shall take no steps whatever, ' was the answer, "until we hear from Josiah Dyer, the chief secretary of the union. We will follow his instructions implicitly"

Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 I see that the "ring" in the Second Fellow nominated last night for alder man. They evidently aspire to have all the republican officials members of that society. It is about time for the inde- pendent republicans to stop this state of affairs, and see to it that the caucuses are controlled in the interests of the party and not of a society. Why not run an independent ticket and beat the ''ring?"
