The thirteenth day oil the great battle of Aisnc finds
iho. Franco-British and German armies still fighting des
perately, with the Germans fiercely resisting the grading
advance of tho allies on General Von Kluck's flunk. The
Jrcnch army is now intrenched between the rivers Sonnne
nnd Oiso in a position -approximately fifty miles north of
Paris. On the eastern end of the battle line in France the
Germans are making a determined .assault on the Verdun
positions. One report of the fighting there places the
German casualties at 10,000, with 15,000 wounded. The
sharpening of tho censorship over the news passing
through the hands of the British authorities was apparent
today in a marked degree.
Zeppelin airships have extended their operations to the
Belgian seaside resort of Ostend. Three bombs from a
dirigible caused considerable damage to buildings and
created a panic.
