Lockwood placed a pot of grease upon
the stove in the kitchen with the in
tention Of having it ignite and cause a
fire.
According to Mr.. Horn, his difficulty
with the colored man, who was chef,
arose from Lockwood's delay in pre-

CRISIS TODAY

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
ROCHESTER,, Mimi. Sept. 16-Af-
ter a critical evening and early morn
ing during which the pendulum of life
swung between hope and despair, Gov
ernor John A Johnson lies to-day at
St Mary's Hospital in such a condi-
tlon that the least unfavorable factor
may precipitate the end.
Against this the States executive
has been fighting manfully since the
operation performed yesterday morn
ing by DR. Mayo to remove an in
testinal abcess.
Reports early to-day are that the
governor has taken a turn for the
better. at present at least, having sue
cessfully withstood what appeared TO
be the first crisis following the oper-
alton.
It was believed that sleep would
soon be induced, which would give
the patient another chance to recuper-
ate his strength.
The forepart of last night was most
uncertain, sinking spells accompanied
by raintness alarming the house ply
sician to such an extent that DIR. Mayo
was called from his home. Early to-
day the Governor had several sharp
attacks, but while enduring excruciat-
ing pain he was able TO secure a few
hours Of sleep.
The real crisis will be reached to-
day. If he survives to-day the chances
OF recovery will be materially in
creased.
