KIEFF. RusCia, Sept 15.-The con-
dition of Premier Stolypin, shot by a
lawyer. Bogrof, at a performance at
the opera given In the cars honor,
is critical today. The patient Is so
weak that his physicians fear an op-
Grafton would prove fatal and will de-
lay a resort to the knife. at least until

who has been summoned from st.
Petersburg.
One of the premier's lungs and his
liver were perforated by the second
bullet and his spine was touched. He
Is in intense pain; breathes with the
greatest difficulty and is paralyzed
from the point where his spine was
touched downwa1ds. His pulse is 10.
The wound In his hand, from the hrst
shot, is slight.
Beyond the fact that he Is safely
locked up, nothing has been heard
concerning Bogrof since the moment
that the police rescued him from the
attempt the audience made to lynch
him Immediately following his at
tack on the premier. Whatever may
be the outcome of his victims In
iuries, Il is safe to assume that the
lawyer will be hanged. Although the
Russion law does not provide the
death penalty even for murder he VIII
doubtless be tried by military court'
which has the power to infiict any
sentence Il sees At.
While Russian officialdom is trying
to give the impression that the at
tempt to assassinate the premier was
the result of a private grudge on
Bogrofs part, there is hardly qqes-
ton that the shooting was poiitical.
II is known, too. that In police circles
IL is gravely feared the affair MARKS
a resumption Of the campaign OF Ter
rorism.
great deal is mad by Russian
authorities of the fact that the car
who was present, was not attacked
and that following the shooting OF the
nremier. the audience first tried 10
ivnch Bogrof and insisted afterward
on singing the national anthem, as
sign Of its devotion to Nicholas.
The truth Is that the car was SO
carefully guarded in the imperiai ooA @
as TO render IL impossible TOT an as'
sassin TO reach him, while the audi-
ence made up almost wholly of aristo-
cracy. could hardly have been expect

same data to work with and know
just about what labor and material
will cost There is no reason why the
bids should not be close. II there

been more likely one mans bid would
have been low and all the other bid
ders would have stayed high. There

School Inspector Mumford will try
