The spot where all this occurred 10 about as
fitting place for murder or robbery as Is
to be found In New York. Second avenue ends
abruptly at stringpiece. and on dark night,
when the water does not glisten. man might
easily stumble into the river. Overhead oil Is
black at night, for the elevated road ends here
On the east side OF the avenue. within twenty
feet OF the rivor are tho steps that lead to the
Second avenue bridge. whore the Suburban
road crosses There are few lamps here. but
they do not give much light.
About half-past o'clock Oficer Caspar Plat
was standing in front Of Fahrenholz's saloon.
on the southeast corner Of Second avenue and
126th street. when slim young fellow came
running down the avenue. He stopped as soon
as he caught sight of the officer and said:
"say. a mans tumbled overheard up
d. street."
Platt recognized him as Harry G. Turner.
whom he had arrested over year ago for
burglary. He ran UP to see what was the
matter. while Turner walked into the saloon.
The officer found several mon and women
leaning over the stringpiece. peering into the
water.

sions to take Fort Ringgold If it became neces-
sary in order to secure food and military sup
