FOUR HUNDRED OUT.
All of Brooklyn's Blue-Stone
Cutters and Flaggers Idle.
Yard Owners Band Together and
Take a Firm Stand.
Question Whether 1t Is q Strike or
Lockout.

Nearly four hundred bluestone-cutters
and fiaggers are out on a strike or have
been locked out in Brooklyn to-day.
The men have been out since last
Monday. In consequence Of the strike
the eleven bluestone yards in Brooklyn
are closed and work discontinued until
men have been found who are willing
to take the places of the strikers or
locked-out men.
For the past three days the owners OF
the stone-yards have advertised in %
THE World for floggers and cutters to
work for $3.50 per day of nine hours.
AS yet they have been unable to pro-
cure any men.
About two weeks ago the stone cut
ters and faggers were notified by the
owners Of the yards, according to one
OF the bosses. that In order to con-
tlnue. the men would have to consent
to temporary reduction to $3.50 a day.
All of the employees are union men.
They at once held meetings, at which 1t
was decided to declare a strike rather
than accept a cut.

says. on Manday. after notifying their
employers that they would stay out I'M

employers would fight their men to the
end:

business of the building contractors.

Contractors, however, were allowed the
privilege of getting cut stone from the
auarries, and this injured the bosses
a great deal.
On Friday OF last week a meeting
was held of all the bluestone bosses,
and II was decided that the employers
should take the offensive. Consequently
on Monday moning, 400 ston-cutters
were no longer required unless they
were willing to do such work as SHOULD
be given them. All of the men refused
to accept and quit work.

a TAXATION ALBUM,

Just 100 wears ago the farmers and
landowners in Vermont were in great
tribulation because their land was beng
sold at auction for non-payment of tax
of one-h half penny per acre assessed by
the State in 1890 to settle controversy
of 26 wears duration with New y Ork to
nav that State f30.000 for land sold by
the latter IN the State of Vermont. In
an album of the Sheldon Art museum are
several deeds of sale. receipts for pay
ment of said taxes and also for redemp-
ton of said lands after having been sold.
The name of Col. John Chapman, the
pioneer of Middlebury, often appears in
these transactions.
The album named is designed TO con-
tain evidences of taxation and revenue
and extends from l755 to the present
time. The first were excise duties for
the manufacture of SpirituOus liquors,
and for the defense of the government
in the war of the Revolution. Licens-
es for keeping a tavern. including the
sale of liquors, date from 1904, with
a charge of Sl.30 a year; they were issued
by the county court. In 1919 the as
sessment was raised to 81. In 1916 thel G
was board of county commissioners
who issued licenses for the sale of liquors
for medicinal, chemical and mechanical
purposes only, with no assessment. In
1913 the county court again issued IL
censes, charging a fee of $50.
