ha* since bees* constructed outside the
defensive line which resisted the Ger
man attack in 1870.
All the positions the Germans took
up in 1870 are now occupied by French
defense works. These have been ar
ranged in three main blocks— VersaUl#*
on the south and southwest, Vincennes
on the east and St. Deni* on the north,
each block forming a big intrenched
camp of its own, capable of sheltering
an army of 150.000 men. The perime
ter of the fortress a* a whole covers
nearly ninety miles.
The new first line forts are in strik
ing contrast with those of the second
lino, which ware built in 1840, though
they have been brought up to' date.
The bastion front has been replaced
by a polygonal trace. The forts are
built of earth, not masonry. They have
parapets thirty to thirty-five feet thick
and ditefeas forty feet wide and thirty
feet deep.
Enormous earth traverses cover the
guns from enfilade fire, and in some of
the larger forts nre cupolas, which look
like gigantic umbrellas at the salients.
In many cases double tier guns have
been constructed.
These forts are very cunningly sited
and would not lie easy to attack with
siege guns from a distance, owing to
their conceal*! positions, white it “wKI

be impossible even for German iufau
try advancing under the lash of their
ofllcera to assault them until their gun
Are has been subdued. The Germans
will have to bring up the heuvy siege
guns which they used against Liege
and Namur, but this will take time, for
when each piece of ordnance tnkes
thirty horses to transport it the pace
cannot be very quick:
In the system of defenses about
Paris and all cities protected by mod
ern works the forts form only the
skeleton of the fortified lines. The
bastloned wall which used to be the
main reliance for the defense of a city
is impossible today. A wall of the
old type would be speedily reduced by
modem siege guns, and to surround a
modern city by an unbroken circle of
forts of the new type would be an
economic Impossibility for the richest
nation.
A apace of six miles, at least, has to
be left between the city and the ring
of fort* to prevent the siege guns of
the enemy from coming within range
of the city. Fort SI. Cyr, on the sec
ond line of defense at Paris, Is ten
nillee from the limits of the city. The
fort* about Paris have a circumfer
enc® of about sixty miles. The seven
teen great forts which form the frame
work of this defense are said to have
been erected at a cost of more than
$200,000,000. To build a solid wall of
such forts the cost would mount into
the thousands of millions.
Much of tin 1 system of

fort. As the enemy knows the posi
tion of permanent works he is able to
j place bis batteries where the forts can
i do the least harm.
While formerly the big guns were
all fought from within the fortress, it
is necessary in modern warfare to
place tlvesu where their positions can
be changed as the fortunes of the bat
tle change. For this purpose there is
about Paris a military belt line rail
road which connects with all the forts
and has spurs connecting it with the
places designed for field fortifications,
so that big guns and ammunition can
be speedily moved from one position
to another. The railroad is concealed
from the enemy by tunnels or sunken
roadbeds, where the lay of the ground
does not afford natural cover. On the
other hand, the military railroad sys
tem was laid out before air craft scout
ing had gained its present effective
ness.
Military critics estimate that a gar
rison of 170.000 would be required to
man the defenses of Paris, and that a
reserve force of from 50,000 to 100,000
more would hav to bo In readiness to
take the places of the slain. If the
German a wry succeeds in Investing
Park the main French army would
be certain to retire southward and
continue fighting. Next to Paris the
most strongly fortified city in the in
terlor of France is Lyo*s. liven if
the Germans reached Paris they would
not necessarily be in control of more
than one-tenth of the territory of
France, and while the French armlea
remained intact the country could not
be beaten.
The modern types of forts at Paris are
shallow from front to rear, with two i
fronts facing the enemy and meeting
in the center at an obtuse angle. The
walls are concrete. Inside the heavy
guns are woiked from disappearing ;
with cupolas of uieel armor. !
These guns are aimed ly officers tn
armored turrets, which rise ipng
enough t*r them to take their obeerra
tioaa and then are sunk.
