May I. After vainly trying since Friday .if last week to settle their trade dispute, which Involves the question of the frranite cutters* right to set stone which they have finished, the Journeymen bricklayers •■{ this city, to the number of 2,400, were locked out to-night by the master bricklayers. With the bricklayers are affiliated the masons, about 400 in number. The lockout will affect almost all branches of the bouaebullders* unions, and Will Involve 20,000 workmen in this city and tie up nearly every huijilii.i? operation. Jt is declared the builders will declare for an open shop as far as the bricklayers are con cerned. Many of the bricklayers are in sympathy ■with the master bricklayers, but the Interna tional Bricklayers' Union holds a whin over them, and if they should attempt to go to work under an open shop order i* would disrupt their orga-nization. The situation is unique in th. annals of labor disputes, because there is no dissension between the employers and workmen as to waxes or hours. STEAMSHIP STRIKE OVER. « Satisfactory Agreement Reached Between Officers and Lines. The ftrikinp officers of coastwise steamers won a decisive victory yesterday.

DEXOUXCES BRI SB A XE. Takes Exception to His ll em arks on "Tyranny in America." The annual reunion and dinner of the lecturers of the depart niont of free lectures of the Board of Education, held at the Hotel Astor last night waa fnlivpnod by an lncldo-nt not on th<^ pro gramme. Amonfj t!,^ speakers were Arthur Tiris i>an». and Chancellor MacCracken of New York University. The lattf>i-. in so many words, de d the former for an utterance of his com paring ilio tyranny of a ozar with what the for mer styled a worse tyranny In America— that ot Imlghty dollar. On the plea that he had an audience of two mill ions ■■:" persons awaltinK Impatiently to hear him. Mr. Brisbane was permitted to speak early. He wbm not present to bear Chancellor MacCracken, who came later. Aiming other things, Mr. Brisbane, whose r^ niarks were made up of comments on points in the speech of I >r. Henry M. Ixipziger, supervisor of lectures, sai-i: "I wish this countrj could compare more favor ably than It doea with th< countries from which our Immigration < s. These Immlgranta leave .. with its lawlessness and us Csar, and they come here i" a country In which there Is a more dangerous lawlessness— the lawlessness of the dollar. You have a great opportunity— the oppor tunity to tell the Immigrant the actual truth about this country— that a dollar here Is i>k lawless, aa powerful, as cynical as the >'/.tr in Russia." In the course of iris remarks, Chancellor Mac- Cracken said: "1 should feel recreant t<> my duty If i .ii; 1 not to-night di nounce the speaker who says that this stato, whose people could elect Gov ernor Hughes, was more tyrannized over than Russia, or thai Roosevelt la a greater tyreu I Ear." The reunion was th« largest which the lecturers ever held. Nearly three hundred persons at tended the dinner, which began soon after 7 o'clock. Dr. Henry M. Leipziger Introduced by the toast master, tiit- Rev. Dr. John Bancroft Devins, told something of what had been accompllsh'sd In the nineteenth season of the lectures, which closed on Tuesday. H" said In part: In the lecture season that has Just closed more, than live hundred men and women have, tliroUßi. titty-live hundred lectures, uttered their messes of uplift, of Information, of Inspiration, of direc tion, in a hundred and sixty different places throughout the city to an audience that reached the total of more than one. million one hundred thousand. Despite the cruel winter, which tried not only men's souls, but all transit facilities, there were found hundreds who responded to the yearning call for the higher life, who trudged willingly as pilgrims to the fountain of truth, for such many regard thesa lecture halls. There are many here, lecturers as well as school officials, that do not yulte comprehend the vast ness of the scheme. Almost every topic which can arouse human Interest is treated in some place or another during the winter. Art and music, first aid to the injured and philosophy, practical science and poetry, travel and civics, all these are Included in the scheme, so that it can be truly said that in formation upon almost every subject can be at tained somewhere in the city through your efforts. The immigrant Just landed on the hospitable shore <>! New York can, on the very evening of his arrival, be conducted Into a lecture hall where In I is own tongue he will be given tho first lessons in American citizenship. It is largely to culturise tho mass that is the object of our work. Tli« lecturers who engagfl In the work, who eagerly and readily respond to every call, are setting a fin« example of public service. "If any man would be great among you. let him be your servant.*" And what service can be com parable to the service in this most wonderful of cities, which may be termed a social laboratory? It is your task to aid In that great educational problem of taking men and women of another en vironment and another heredity and wilding them into that new type that Is called American. It is a hope of Tiur>.-> that with the Increasing fa cilities for university education in this city the public lecture course may lead to university privi leges. Men and women after attending these lecturo in a self-sacrificing way for a number of years surely deserve some recognition from the col legiate university that their success entitles there to as a reward for their labors and to attest their knowledge as within standard. This would be a great stimulus and bring the university for the people in touch with the people and accessible to the people The lone reproach against medieval ism In which education shall be for the limited few will forever thus be removed.
