THE CENTRE MOVEMENT.
GERMANS ADVANCING IN FOUR COLUMNS. (Received Last "Night, 5.5 o'clock.) PARIS, August .29. ~ The Germans are now advancing in four columns along the first gap to Stenay, which is twelve miles west of Longwy. Here they hope to strike the Meuse and accomplish a turning movement against Virton. The Montmedy fortress and deep valleys of the Meuse should make it possihle for the French to counter this army. The second army is striking between Montmedy and Mezieres, despite the forests, which the French occupy. There is a small fort at Charlemont, perched on a rock seven hundred feet high.
