When tho pickets went round to the Cygnet this morning they were followed, at a respectable distance, by an inoffensive-looking young man with a camera. He took sovoral snapshots of incidents with reference to the cessation of work, but thon tho picket pounced on him'. He pleaded that he was only an amateur engaged in a peaceful and inoffensive occupation. "I know him," said one man. 'He's a newspaper photographer." The picket commenced to act at onco and tho photographer was ordered to destroy his plates.'. The plates wero afterwards exposed to. tho light, and 'scratched to make assurance doubly sure.
