WESTERN ATTACK.
GERMAN PLANS. OFFENSIVES ON TWO WINGS. Paris, Jan. 14. M. Marcel Hutin believes that the Germans will endeavor to exert pressure on the Franco-British front generally, but that the real offensive -will be on the two wings, the first from St. Kihiel ta the Swiss frontier, and the second from Armentieres to the sea. The strategic plan is to take advantage of the St. Mi'hM spur and so manoeuvre the two wings as to bring about a general descent on Paris. This is von LudendorfPs dream to impose peace before the Americni get to work.
