FRENCH ARMY PERFECTLY READY.
TREMENDOUS WINTER PREPARATIONS. LONDON, Feb 26. Reuter's French headquarters' correspondent says:—As the shadow or the expected German offensive looms larger it is comforting to know that the French are ready everywhere to meet it wherever it falls. Behind the French front winter has been a time of methodical preparation. Unnumbered miles of trenches have been dug, roads and communications "improved, fresh and monstrous growths of wire placed on every road and field where a German advance is conceivable, and artillery and munitioniTltre ready in quantities the Germans never before encountered. But a surer and stronger defence is the unconquerable spirit of the French army. They are reauy and better prepared than ever before.
