NEXT TO VERDUN FOR HORROR.
A GERMAN REPORT. Received July 14 t 5.30 p.m. . . NEW YORK, July 13. Dr. Max Osborn, of the "Vossiche Zeitung," in a special cable to the "New York Times," says the fierceness and bitterness of the fighting at the Somme are increasing. The battle has a counterpart only in the horrors of Verdun. This time we cannot reproach England for holding back men. They are driving forward in vast continuous masses. Ever fresh waves of French south of the Somme are attempting an almost continuous chain of drives, but the enemy has found our infantry unshakeable. The Allies' charges have still great power and tenacity.
