PARIS, Sept 3.-Paris waits for
the Germans. There is little doubt in
anyone's mind that the invading
forces will strike at the northern
forts. But no complete investment
of Paris is possible In the opinion Of
the military experts They insist that
to isolate the capital would be too
great a task even for the wonderful
fighting machine that has hacked its
way to within forty miles OF Paris
But there is no doubt that the allied
lines will be forced back until the
Germans can engage the outer line of
forts TO the North.
That the government expects this
action was shown when an official
order was issued today placing Gen
eral Gallieni in supreme command of
the entire defense of Paris. Last Sat
urday he was gazetted as military
governor Of the city. Today this au-
thority was increased so that he will
be in complete charge of the defense.
