Change FOR TR[ WORSE.
Ex-President Harrison Threat
ened With Pneumonia.
APPREHENSION Is FELT.

Inflammation of the Left Lung and Pains
In the Chest Cause Him Much Trouble.
Danger That Congestion May Spread.
Doctors Say Present State is Not Critical.
indianapolis, March 12.-Dr. Henry
Jameson has been in constant attend
ance, on General Harrison and issued
the following Statements:
General Harrison has gone through
the night in excellent shape. He had
his own splendidly until 10 a. m when
slight change for the worse was APP
parent. The Inflammation In the left
lung and the pains in his chest began
to cause him a great deal of trouble
and produced state of NERVOUSNESS
and restlessness Which caused him
much discomfort.
Il find no great cause for alarm in
the condition of General Harrison and
attribute the change to-the fact that. t.he
has been laboring with his ailment one
day longer. AS to Athe definite time
when crisis will occur, cannot say.
In dealing with pneumonia and kin
quantity hard to reckon with In 4S
hours there will be change OF some
sort. either for the worse or better.
With the other physicians, l am very
hopeful at this time of General Harrl-
son's ultimate recovery. The chief
danger we. fear from the illness is an
extension of the infiammatory process
in the left lung"

1thonght this was Stovall's track and so
he divided his force sending one con
stable to the rear of the house whi!ehe
with the other constable approached
from the front. Stovall was in the
house and saw the sheriff coming. He
thereupon ran out the back door and
was nabbed by the constable. Stovall
was taken to Manila and from thence
brought back to the county jail. We
understand that Bell is going to siton
him oay and night hereafter to prevent
any more accidents. While the sheriff
must be blamed for the carelessness of
his subordinate and the slack discip-
line which made such a thing possible,
he must also be credited with very
clever capture Bell has hardly slept
since the escape, he has had every
avenue watched and guarded, his de-
tective instincts TOOK him on the right
trail at once and he did not stint ex-
pense or trouble in order to redeem his
reputation and recapture his prisoner.
We understand that the sheriff bears
all the expense of recapture himself. SO
the county is not out anything. by the
daring escape.
An effort will be made to have the
bail of both Stovall ard jackson in
creased. 1t is reported that the in
vestigations incidental to the effort to
recapture Stovall have brought several
new developments 10 light and it is not
impossible that other arrests may fol-
low.

THE CHASE.

Sheriff Bell decided for these reasons
that Stovall would probably seek his
friends as soon as possible. The night
was spent in sending telephone mes
sages and telegrams all over the coun-
try to put officers on their guard. All
outgoing trains were watched at near
ly every station in the county and par.
ticularly in the vicinity of Manila.
The next day Bell went to, Manila and
organized search parties. The first
word came from Mr.. Jones of Wash
ington township that a man who an
swered Stovall's description and who
had piece of carpet wrapped around
him to protect him from the cold had
inquired the way to Manila of him on
Sunday morning. Sunday afternoon it
was reported that man answering the
description had been seen crossing the
Milwaukee tracks between, Astor and
Defiance. All this went to confirm the
sheriff's theory that he had gone to
some of his relatives. On Monday the
sheriff with quite posse searched
the houses of asnumber of people with
whom it was thought Stovall might
be but without result save to confirm
the sheriff from different items which
he picked up that he was on the right
trail.

DARING
ESCAPE
John Stoyall Escapes
From County Jail.
Careless Turnkey Permits
Escape Through Negligence
Sheriff Captures Him.

On Saturday evening John Stovall
under Indictment for the Manila ex-
press robbery escaped from the Deni-
son jail. This morning at nine o'clock
hewas recaptured by sheriff. Bell and
two constables and he is now safely un-
der lock and key.
The escape was effected on Saturday
afternoon at about 4:3O o'clock in a
manner SO simple and extraordinary
that it reflects but small credit upon
the turnkey in charge. Reduced to
its. simple terms the method of escape
was that the turnkey left the door un-
locked and the prisoner quietly walked
out 1t seems that it is the custom to
allow the prisoners the run of the Jail
during the noon hour after which time
they are locked in the main cell room.
1T is the business of the turnkey to at
tend to this and on the afternoon in
question Mr. Smith did as he supposed,
lock the prisoners in the large cell
room At that time Stovall must have
seereted himself in one of the cells
OF the front room OF the Jail which
opens directly on to the exterior of the
building or else he must have. gone to
sleep in the eicell awaking after the 9TH
ers were locked in and having the OPP
pertunity to escape thrust at him with
loutadesign. About 4:20 O'clock Smith
entered the Jail to fill the lamps. He
eItered the outside room where Stovall
was but thinking that the prisoners
were locked in. the inner room he took
no pains to lock the outer door. A
trusty named Corners who was being
allowed to remain in Jail at his own re-
quest until he could find employment,
volunteered to clean the ashes from
the furnace if Smith would let him out
for the purpose. Smith did this and in
few minutes Corners reported that
the cellar door was fastened and that
he could not get in. Smith then went
down cellar and opened the door for
Corners and watched and directed him
for some moments. He-was away pos
sibly five minutes and during this time
the front door of the Jail was unlocked.
Stovall seeing this calmly walked out
of the jail. AS Franz Heppner said it
was kind of him not to injure the Jail
in any way but just to walk out peace
ably like gentleman. 1t was not un-
til supper time, nearly seven o'clock
that Stovall was missed. Saturday
was snowy and windy and it was almost
impossible to find any trace of the miss
ing man. 1t was known that Stovall
had no money and that he was lily
clothed he having left hiseoat and vest
in the inner cell.
