Paris stands without a parallel among
fortified cities and Is the greatest cli-
max of military engineering cunning
More than once opposition was raised
to the stupendous amounts involved in
the protective works. but the French
have realized their national peril and
have provided the needtul funds. For
thrifty people II is not difficult to realize
the antagonism to further appropria-
tions for these forts. because. available
figures show that nearly $500, 1000, 900
has gone for their building and re-
modelling. The significant part OF this
staggering outlay lies in the fact that
well nigh all OF 1t has gone toward pro-
viding defences on the north. the east
and the south. In short, this protec-
tive work blocks the paths leading east
ward toward the German frontier.
The defences Of Paris to-day. COM
pared with the forts of 1870. are as
much of an advance al the modern
magazine rife is upon the old muzzle
loading muskets of a century back. The
circle formed by the forts OF 1870,
lying beyond the walls OF the city at
distances ranging from one to three
miles, then had an arc OF something
like forty miles. and within their COM
oined zones sheltered an area Of about
100 square miles. of which quite half
was overspread with fairly thickly pop-
] u'ated suburbs Then the region had

To-day Parts has population Of
quite 5000 600 sous, and the outermost
FORTIFIED zone covers NOR than double
the distance Of that embraced by the
detached forts of 1870. Indeed. the en-
Nlrons Of north. east and south Paris
are divided into three great inirenched
camps, with their margins protected
by many new permanent batteries and
forts. The circle of these new defences
has sweep Of eighty-five miles. and
the guarded zones have n combined

Of this difference little later on. o.
Because Of the eigkty-iive mile spread
of the intrenched camps an investing
army would to-day have to have a
front Of substantially 100 miles, and
this would nccessitate the presence of

armies of Russia than was first imag-
ined? Would this leave a sufficient
force to hold the French In check
around Paris. especially as they will
undoubtedly be able to count upon fur
ther substantial assistance from Great
Britain? Time alone will tell. but what
we are fortunately able to disclose
about the Partisan defences and the
preparations at the French capital will
help even layman TO grasp some thing
Of the gigantic task likely to confront
the confident Germans.
To begin with. Paris enjoys an enor-
nous advantage strategically because
OF natural conditions. and the cunning
French military engineer has availed
himself of all of these typographical ac-
cidents. Paris lies at the confluence Of
three rivers--the Seine. the Marne and
the Oise and II Is by the valleys Of
these three streams that the enemy
would have TO come when advancing
into France from the northern and
eastern frontiers. The valley Of the
Seine trends directly TO the historic
gap OF Belfort" which stands between
the Swiss Jura and the southern
Nosges. The Marne valley leads to the
deep opening between the Ardennes and
the northern Nosges while the valley
of the Oise is the logical highroad from
Belgium.
History has emphasized repeatedly
how all roads along these valleys make
naturally relatively easy paths for APP
proach to Paris from the east and
north and the military problem is. ac-
cordingly. that of defending these some
what narrowed lanes by which the ira
ditional foe must come. Therefore. the
task of the defence is strategically aided
by this natural prescribing of the routes
which the Germans must adopt whether
they come by single one or move
simultaneously over all three

girding the city by Il belt of sixteen de-
tached forts on the northeast and south
east approaches to Paris. How well he
planned was amply proved during the
winter Of 1870 to 1871, and since then
the Government has added a third belt
or zone OF defences covering a much
wider arc and therefore necessitating &
the employment ~ greater force on
the part of a potential foe.
Besides this third ercelnte, the older
forts have been rearmed and remodelled
and the old battlements Immediately
around the city, having a perimeter OF
twenty miles. have been strengthened
with modern ordnance. There was a
time not so long ago when II was pro-
posed Ia raae this ancient wall. hut the
authorities thought better of it and have
since turned those battiements into for
midabe defences in modern sense Of
the term.

different proposition from that which
the soldiers ~ the fatherland had u
nesotiate forty-three years ago; the
French have prepared for this second
coming of their ancient enemy and the
welcome is apt to be desperately dis
oouraging affair. Naturally. the French
military authorities have Kept as secret
a. possible the details Of their defences.
But a great deal Is common property
regarding their general disposition, and
nv patient research some particulars
have been CLEANED here and there which
afford a pretty fair index of the char
acter of the fortifcations which stand
sousrelv in the various paths by which
the Germans would logically have to ad-
vance upon Paris.
THE strategic significance cf the Pa
,,sisn defences has been materially al
tered by the developments since war
was declared Undoubtedly the unex-
pected opposition on the part of the Bel
rlans and the British cooperation with

OF the problem confronting the Kaiser

presence was indicated today in the re-

1t is believed Mr.. Schwab was COM
