$ Paris, Sept. 22, 12 noon. General
j Joffre, the French comraander-in-
A 'r chief, and the allied commanders on
P J this front Field Marshal Sir John
I i French and King Albert are develop-
j ,3 ing a new plan of campaign that iu-
i volves the almost continuous use of
?j artillerj on a vast scale along the
to i whole line
I f Masses of artillery have been eru-
ployed by both sides since the be
ll i ginning of operations in preparing
5 , for infantry attacks, pounding their
I adversaries for an hour or two, then
i W' suddenlj suspending fire and assault-
i ing with infantry The allies are now
II' methodically maintaining their shell
WW fire for days at a time -without in
ll; fantry attacks, dropping projectiles
Mm upon the charred front into every
B fifty yard square and repeating the
IB process a deadly, automatic, unceas
Vr Ing pounding. -The heavy calibered
gl guns send their storms of shells.upon
ft encampments of first' reser es behind
In e 'ines aml uPn bridges and provl
i'm sion trains.
J Official reports obtained by the
m French army officers from their own
il observers, from prisoners and from
3 5 photographs made by aviators show
s s, that parts of the opposing lines which
I have been subjected to this unceasing
J bombaidment have been rendered
' j practically untenable, and that the
, best the Germans can do is to re
a ' occupy their abandoned works after
the bombardments have let up and
it I then leave quickly when the showers
.; of projectiles begin to fall again.
lg Paris, Sept 22, 2:38 p. m. The
'; artillery fighting has taken place also
, 'i near Arras; between the Somme and
I' Oise; between the Aisno and the Ar
gonne region, and In Lorraine.
A group of eight French aviators
have successfully bombarded a rail
road station on the Hue from Verdun
to Metz.
The text of the communication fol
- lows:
r "In Belgium there has been fairly
'! spirited cannonading in the region of
j Boesinghe. In the sectors of Arras
1 and Agny there was spirited rifle and
J artillery firing last night.
" "Between the Somme and the Olso
I ithere has been intermittent bombard
i mont In the regions of Armancourt,
, Daucourt and Loges. There have
been also artillery engagements to
the north of Camp de Chalons.
"French aviators have bombarded

j ; London, Sept. 22, 11:55 a. m. Spc-
clal dispatches from Petrograd agree
jj ' that the Russians have withdrawn
I i safely from the Vilna salient, the stra-
I I h teglc value of which was considered
Ij, so great that the Russian, staff felt
A i Justified in risking some of tho best
g troops to defend it to the last possl
1 1 a bio moment. In their withdrawal
the Russians are said to have destroy
ed everything of military utility, as
has been their practice since tho gi
gantic retreat began. While the
main army probably is safe, it is hard
j ly likely that the whole Russian force
j will escape without heavy Iosscb in
I I men and guns. Field Marshal von
)' HIndenburg's cavalry, which was ex
J pected to complete tho encircling
movement, Is still held up between
' Smorgon nnd Molodechno. On tho
J i Vllna-Lida-Slonlm flank tho German
! advance Is proceeding steadily, but
I Prince Leopold's progress is slower,
i while Field Marshal von Mackenson
ffi has come to a stop behind the Pripet
2gj marshes.
Zv GermanB Must Move Swiftly.
I j If the Russian retreat is to bo stop- ;
H j Ped successfully the swiftest move-
