Their power to dis turb the equanimity of the populace, however, Beemea less, the people refusing to be distractd from their Sunday habits to any great extent. Warning U Iud. For the benefit of that portion, of the populace which had been led to believe the Germans had broken through the line and were bombarding Paris from nearby positions, a semi-official note was Issued during tho day. This warned lha nannla ncrainat believinif DCSsimistic reports. "The French front is intact," said the note. "Any asser tion to the contrary Is a lie." tv, VinmriAritrnpnt of the caoital ended around I o clock and as late as 3 o'clock no explosions had been heard for mnr than an hour. The "clear slnal" was sounded at 3:30 .rV.A.lf ' Although during.the earlier hours of the bombardment the shells arrived in twenty-minute intervals, later in ,jahe day they began arriving every nrteen minuies on me avtr age and some of them even fell twelve minutes apart. a. f n It I I wo luni Deing mcu, In military circles the belief was expressed that the Ger mans were using two long distance guns. The Matin says the position of one of the guns was established In the St. Gobain forest which would place it Bomewhat further south than had been believed and in the wooded area. This posi tion would be about seventy-five miles from Paris. During the early hours of the morning traffic in. the street of Paris was shut down or curtailed, dui Deiore noon both the streets and the city showed great animation. Dur ing the day large numbers of persons, unable to secure means of transport to take them to their destinaiions walked in order that they might keep their appointments. As is usual when aircraft warnings are sounded, large numbers of th.0 populace sought shelter in the subways and in basements of Warning for Bombardment. The 'government has decided that in the future the bom bardment of Paris by long distance gumrshall not Interrupt the normal life of the capital, but that the population shall be warned of a bombardment by distinctive means, differing h. al Yunrnincs sent out in cases of air raids. Drums will be beaten and the police will sound whistles. Berlin Claiming Capture of Some Thirty Thousand Prisoners nnd Enormous Quantities of Booty BERLIN, via London, March 24.
