 for Suggestions.

A call has been issued by the city beautiful commission, calling upon those citizens who have ideas to suggest in regard to the improvement of the city to send them into the commission. The following is the request as pre- pared calling for communications on the matter:
 Citizens wha have any suggestions to make regarding the improvement plan of New Haven as to location of public buildings, and as to our streets, boule- wards, bridges and parks, are requested to present them in writing (as briefly as poesible) to the improvement plan commission. Such communications should be addressed to the improvement plan commission, mayors office, city hall, New Haven. Conn.

piece Of the powerful court party

the pusition Of Nj. l!ompard at ST. Pet

'TactleSS to the point of impudence
has been the behavior of the a,nbas-
sador in urging unasked for advice on

he is Il pei feet iGnoramus. The French
government has also treated official
Russia strangely, almost hoStilcly. The
French official press and the official
uttcranccS i'm the Chamber Of DEPUTIES
have indicated all along that France
was ANXIOUS tn engage in negotiations
with the newborn Duma, over the
head or behind the back of the govern

dealing is calculated to give open en-
