NEW MENACE TO FRANCE. It fs the Great Fortified Camp Which Germany is Building at Malmedy, Close to the Belgian Frontier.

Close to the Belgian Frontier. BRUSSELS, Dec. 17.-The Independence Beige printed yesterday sn anonymous ar ticle concerning the great fortified camp which the German way department is building at Mslmedy, close to the Belgian frontier and but a short distance from Luxembourg's northern boundary. The editor gives the assurance that the author is a competent military authority.
 Germany has chosen the site of the camp at Malmedy, says the writer, owing to that towns proximity to Belgium's valuable network of railways, which would enable troops to proceed from the German border via Liege, Huy, Namur and Chsrleroi into northeast France within forty. eight hours. At the same time the new camp would give German troops the proper base from which to cross Luxembourg into French territory. If France wished to obtain 8 correspond ing advantage for herself she must fortify a camp at Givet near the place where the Mouse cuts the Franco-Belgian border.
 The writer thinks that Belgium to as- sure herself against invasion must main tain permanent gsrrisons of so, 900 men st Liege and Namur and must keep her eff fective army as large as 250, ,000 in order that she may be able at all times to rein force her garrison in the forts along the line which @ German army naturally would select when marching to invade France
