But No Great Damage Resulted Ex-
cept To Wire Service.

Oskaloosa ha da little less than a
half hour of the electrical storm that
swept the state from the northwest
about nine o'clock Monday evening.
While no great damage was done
here, the wind played havoc with
service wires, blew over a number of
trees, unrOOfed some out buildings,
tore awnings loose and played havoc
with signs in the business section
while the food of water that fell in
little less than a half hour piled up
in low places where it could not
get away by reason Of insufficient
outlets

the tangle OF wires was beginning
to assume the semblance of order

that hour many more grief tales
poured into head quarters. The
greatest trouble came from the

filled with small lakes and a canal
that connects the Niemen and the

driven from the vilalge of AugustowO
and is now being used to protect
HindenbUrg's flank and rear.
The great Russian central army
under the direct command of the
commander-in-chief, Grand Duke
Nicholas, is made up of 100000
fresh troops who have been modified
in Russian Poland to move against
the main German army which has
been feverishly fortifying the entire
line of the Silesian frontier.
This force was. today reported in
contact with the German advance
guard which has been pushed for
ward to protect the lines of com
munication to Cracow. This right is
expected to develop into the greatest
battle of the war in the east as the
Germans troops engaged are those
who were withdrawn from the west
to try to stop the Russian advance.
Meanwhile there are between a
million and million and half Rus
slams in Galicia moving in two par
allel lines. The northern column,
which has enYeloped Przemysl, to-
day has completed the investment of
Tarnow, so miles east of Cracow.
The fall of Tarnow is feared here
as the Russians far outnumber the
Austrian garrison and there exists no
good strategic reason for trying to
hold the city.
The second Gaician army captur-
ed Krosno after a desperate resist
ance in which the Austrian garrison
inflicted enormous losses on the Rus
slams.
The combined German Austrian
armies in the theater of war do not
number two million including all re-
serves while the Russians have more
than 1000. 900 already on the scene.
