Inconvenience. Suffered by American
Travellers at the Hands of German Off,
Gals ON the French Frontier.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.--United States
Consul Clifford, at Basic, Switzerland.
writes to the Deperenent of State about
the Inconvenience and loss that Ameri-
can travellers are put to on the from tier
of France and Alsace- Lorraine through
lack of exact Information in regard to the
regulations enforced by the German au-
thorities on the frontiers of those prov
inces. Numbers of such travellers reach
Basic daily, who had purchased through
tickets in Paris for points beyond the
annexed provinces. but had been stopped
by the German authorities and compelled
to reach their d destination by circuitous
routes through Switzerland. Mr.. Clifford
writes for the Information of all Amerl-
can travellers that in order to travel from
any point in France to or through Alsace-
Lorraine, they must be provided with
passports bearing the visa Of the German
Legation in Paris.

Mr.. Blaine and Minister Iselmont's Con-
firmation.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22..-It has been
said that Mr.. Blaine will use his influence
to prevent the confirmation of Mr.. Bel
mont as Minister to Spain. A gentleman
who is familiar with the facts connected
with the famous controversy between Mr..
Blaine and Mr.. Belmont which occurred
some years ago, is quoted by the Star as
saying that neither had cherished any
such ill-will toward the other as would
result in desire for revenge or retalia-
ton. Both, he said, have since regretted
the great publicity given to the affair,
and they have carefully avoided speaking
unexpectedly of each other. From
what he knew OF Mr.. Blaine personally,
and particularly as to his feeling in this
matter, he was confident that he would
not by word or action oppose Mr.. B IL
mont's confirmation.

THE LATEST IN JEWELS.

Barbaric jewels are very much the fashion this season, the more crude the more effect i've.
 One of the newest things is Russian jew elry, which had quite boom ill this city during the holiday season.
 Necklaces of many styles are now seen in the show cases. These ornaments are no longer confined to the costly gem set affairs, but are fashionable in gold, silver and enamel.
 Counted among decidedly expensive prac- tical objects, designed for mans use, are miniature brushes with gold handles and tiny pocket combs with gold tops, with which to keep the beard in order.
 Quite new and very effective is tortoise shell jewelry set with diamonds. Brooches, cuff buttons and earrings are all represented ill designs that follow more or less closely the patterns seen in gold and silver jewelry.
 There is little to be said that is new on the subject of finger riugs. Small seal rings are much affected by men, who are also wearing two or more rings on one hand. as gem s..t ring and fancy ring in gold or gold and platinum.

THE annual report of our Police Depa1

THE annual report of our Police Depart ment, presented last night by Chief Egan, will be read with interest. It gives grati- flying proof of the efficiency of our local force in the detection and suppression of offenses against law and ordinance; and deals particularly with the vexed question of the Sunday liquor traffic. With all the vigilance of the Police the Sunday traffic continues, although considerably dimin- ished, apparently. Where there's will there's way; amp there seems to be special devices in the hands of men who desire to sell or purchase liquors on forbidden days and outside of restricted hours.

DOUBT AND CERTAINTY.

Is Connecticut doubtful State! This word "doubtful' is the convenient mode in which Republicans attempt to break the fall of great defeat in November; but as we have more than once said, shutting our eyes to see what Providence will send, is not the way to convert the alleged doubt into an absolute certainty for the Demo- cratic interest. If Connecticut is to be saved for the Democracy the Democrats of Connecticut must gird up their Joins for the work of salvation. There are, perhaps, some angularities to be smoothed down; but that will be not difficult task if we enter on the work, influenced by the gene ral good; and not by personal prejudices or ambitions.
 The great rock ahead in this State as we'll as elsewhere, will be the Tariff ques- ton; and we may we'll ask in reference to our own Valley of the Naugatuck, will the great manufacturers oppose reduction of taxes Our industries, indeed, do not come within the prohibited degrees to any great extent; but then there is fellow feeling among capitalists which excites sympathy and calls forth assistance. If the manufacturers will enter into opposi- ton the question will become party one. If they will not it will be dealt with as an economic question merely
 The next question is: By which course will the manufacturers best protect their interests? We should think that they would prefer that the adjustment of taxa tion should be made temperately and with deliberation; and not in the heat and hurry of party strife The manufacturers see that tax reduction cannot long be post poned. If it be defeated this year and the next, it cannot be defeated six years hence, when the debt will all have been paid and when the surplus revenues will amount to $2O0, 100000 year. Do the manufactur- CTS wish to make this great descent by one leap or by easy steps.s There will, we think, be no disposition to insist upon a further reduction until that time The manufacturers will thus have twelve years during which there will be no change in thessFederal taxes. That is longer period than Henry Clay asked for; and Horace Greeley used to say that if the manufac- turers could have ten years of protection, at an average of 25 per cent, he would not ask for more. If they accept the bill which will be offered, then they will have protection of at least 40 per cent through out period of twelve years.
 Will they prefer that to the present sys- tenn, with a fight all the time, and with the danger of defeat at the elections in Mo- vember! The American people are not fools. They have been patient and long suffering; but can they be expected to en- dure forever. It is by taking this matter, and others of perhaps minor interest into consideration in time that we shall make Connecticut most certain State for the party of labor and progress.
