THE PARIS or TODAY.
A Successful Siege of the City Would
Now BE Impossible.

A Successful Siege of the City Would
Now Be Impossible.
The French have been taught wisdom
by past experience, and % result have
planned and few years ago finished q
system of Notifications round Paris which
are probably unequaled for the purposes
for which they are intended by any sim
liar Notifications in the world.
Awell informed military writer, men,
her of the general staff of the German
army, has given 1t as his opinion that
successful siege of Paris would be under
present conditions an impossible under
taking.
The new Notifications that surround the
French capital are some IL or 20 miles
from the city and ore connected with
Paris and with each other by railway
system which would enable the French
commander to quickly mass at one point
a very large body Of men, while the gen.
to prevent the city from obtaining sup
plies and thus shut in the people and the
army that was defending 1t, would have
to occupy line extending over 100 miles,
and hence could not by any possibility
collect large number Of his force at any
one point to resist with even shadow Of
hope an attack Of the enemy.
1t required q German army of approx
mately 100000 men to lay siege to Paris
from Sept 10, 1870, to Jan. 90, 1871, but
the authority we refer to Is Of the opinion
that to repeat the same operation Ger
man besieging army would have to num-
Der more than 1900, 900 men, and the
work Of maintaining such force and
properly handling its parts would be
something which few governments would
care to undertake and few military COM
manders would be able to efficiently per-
form.
The French have spent upon these new
Notifications an amount variously estimat-
cd at from 100000 to 9lO, 900, 900, and
hence can we'll afford to sell the land o.
oupied by some Of the now obsolete forti-
aoations of q generation ago.-Pearson' 3

Singular Story OF Mysterious Shoot.
ing in st. Louis.
st. Louis. Dec. s.--The Post Dispatch
throws light on q mysterious shooting
that occurred in St. Louis on June IA.
1897. and resulted in the death of Ell
lott L. Duckworth at Kansas City,
Kan, some time after that. According
to the story Duckworth came to st.
Louis from Springfield, Mo-, to meet
Edward L. Dolling. an Indiana bank
cashier, who in letter had offered the
former a remunerative position.
On arriving in st. Louis Duckworth,
who had registered at the Planters
hotel, strolled out to Forest park, where
he was later found on the same day
badly wounded with a bullet hole In his
head and a revolver lying beside him.
1t was apparently case of suicide. In
the wounded mans pocket was found a
card bearing these words: Il am Ed
ward L. boiling, Of Terre Haute, Ind.
In case of accident -"
Dolling it appears. was at that time
wanted for embezzleing $4,000 from a
bank in a small town near Terre Haute.
Ind. Ne disappeared about the time he
wrote the letter to Duckworth making
the st. Louis appointment with the lat
ter. boiling and Duckworth, who were
not acquainted personally, resembled
each other to remarkable degree. The
story goes on to say that Duckworth
was decoyed to this city by Dolling and
fatally shot, card put In his pocket
with the latter's name on 1t and the
wounded man passed off on the police
and he public as the missing embez-
zler. Duckworth, however, revived and
revealed his identity. The wounded
man denied that he had attempted to
commit suicide. and he said he re-
membered nt.hing Of the shooting.
Dolling, it is said is still at large, and
the police are searching for him on the
charges of embe2zlement and murder.
