First Bale Arrives
In Chickasha Today-Grown By
c. S Crouch, Near Ireton.

1t has arrived-that first bale of
cotton. Its coming was unheralded
and there was considerable surprise
when it made its appearance.
G. S. Crouch was the man who
brought it. The cotton was raised
near Ireton on Latin creek, about
eighteen miles east of town. Mr..
Crouch has 40 acres which he
thinks will yield half bale to the
acre. Mr.. Crouch arrived in town
at six O'Clock this morning and
took his cotton to the Chickasha
Cotton Oil Co.'S. gin. The gin had
not yet been started up and there
was some delay in firing up and
getting the machinery in motion.
Preparations were made to gin it
this afternoon.
Mr.. Crouch will receive the pre-
mum offered by the citizens on the
FIRST bale. The cotton was of very
fine quality.

crossed over to the left flank. The
understanding was that the Rus
slams would concentrate heavily in
the morning for an attack of the
japanese in that direction and the
surprise was greater, therefore, at
the order to retire.
The explanation is given that
the Tenth corps, especially Gener-
al Herschelmann's division OH the
extreme left, was confronted by a
greatly superior force of Japanese.
Though the Russians fouhght
bravely and held all their positions
they had lost an immense number
OF officers.

Dwelling Burned
Fire Broke Out at Two O'clock
Building and Contents Burned.
OF officers

The dwelling of R. d. Stultz
I2th and Illinois, was burned last
night. The fire was discovered
about two o clock by a neighbor.
All of the rear end of the house was
in flames when the discovery was
made. Mr.. Stultz was away from
home. The rest of the family were
hastily aroused, but it was too late
to save any Of the contents of the
house.
There was no telephone in the
neighborhood and consequently no
alarm was turned into the fire de-
partment. One of the members of
the force happened to be up and
saw the light in the west. The
fire company hastened to the scene
but arrived too late to do any
good.
Mrs. Stultz had been ironing dur
ing the afternoon and evening and
it is supposed that the fire originat-
ed from the kitchen stove. The
house was a three-roomed struc-
t11re.

INTENSE
ANXIETY
In ST. Petersburg Great Battle at
Lao Yang May Be
Proceeding.
RUSSIANS IN RETREAT
In Preparation for a Decisive Stand
--Other News.

St. Petersburg, Aug. 80, (I:I5 a.
m. Even late tonight the great
est uncertainty prevails regarding
the actual situation at Lao Yang.
There is intense anxiety for de6n-
ite n ews from the front, but even
the authorities are frankly ignorant
as to whether or not the long ex-
pected decisive action will be fought
at Lao Yang or further north.
1t is possible that even now a
great battle is proceeding and there
are many indications that this IS
the case. If this is so the fate of
this year 5 campaign may be set
tied within forty-eight hours.
AT the same time opinion is al
most equally divided, many be
lieving that General Kuropatkin
will not make determined stand
and the japanese will crack the
shell only to find the bird has
flown.
One Of the Russian correspond
ents of the Associated Press says
that the fighting 50 far has been
confined wholly to rear guard ac-
tions. The Russian force is now
concentrated in a series of exceed
ingly strong positions around Lao
Yang, but the whole withdrawal
was in accordance with pre-ar-
ranged plan. 1t is certain that the
armies are now in close touch. The
Japanese are advancing in great
force along both of the roads con-
verging on Lao Yang, but the cru
cial question, whether it is the
main Russian army that is concen-
trated there to receive them or
merely strong screen, has not been
answered to this date.
Much depends upon the weather.
It is possible that the recent rains
may have made General Kurropat-
kin S withdrawal impossible even
if he desired to withdraw, or that a
further downpour may disarrange
the plans Of both sides; but the lat
est indications that the weather
and the roads are improving should
force a side OF the curtain within
twenty four hours.
Lao Yang, Aug. a9.-The Rus
sian forces have retreated to this
place, where a stand is expected to
be made. The whole eastern divi-
sion and the troops on the Anshan-
shan position have been ordered to
fall back to positions near this city.
The soldiers were expecting anoth-
er advance when the order to re-
treat came.
The advance from the south is
apparently being pushed home.
Sounds Of artillery from that direc-
ton are palmer than they wer
yesterday.
The Chinese here are bringing
out women aud children. which
they usually do when expecting a
a Japanese advance.
