THE RIVAL SHAKES.
GLAD HANDS OF BRYAN, MKINLEY,

Potent Campaign Factors-How the
Candidates Shake Hands at the
Rate of Fifty Minute or 5000
Per Hour.

An incidental feature of the presi-
dental campaign will be the handshake
of the four leading candidates. The
other day Mr.. Bryan shook the good
right hands of 1000 men. women and
children at Lincoln, and it is a common
occurrence for Major Mckinley to
shake hands with 500 persons in an af-
ternoon. Mr.. Hobart has extended a
hearty grip to pretty nearly everyone
in Jersey, while Arthur Sewall has

made the good people OF Maine swell
with pride by his cordial generosity in
the handshaking line.
Grasping the hands of such vast null
tiuudeS was anew thing for Bryan, Ho-
bart and Sewa1i, but they have all now
settled into their respective strides and
each has a. llandshake of his own. Ma
jor Mckinley has been shaking hands
with the nation for some years past
and it was an easy matter for him 70
meet the great tidal wave of out
stretched palms.
The political handshake, particularly
the national political handshake is
very different thing from the ordinary
business, or social greeting. Most peo-
pie don't know this. If McKinf ey,
Bryan, SewaH or Hobart shook hands
like ordinary people their fists would
be a shapeless mass inside of week.
Imagine what it is to shake hands with
fifty people minute for two hours at
a time, grasping the dainty fingers of
a society belle one second; falling into
the iron-clad clutch OF a horny-handed
son of toll the next second; shaking the
mushy paw of a bargain-cou1ter dude
the third second; catching the diplo-
matte hand of millionaire the fourth
second; fondling the pudgy palm of an
influential dowageT the fifth second
press ng the oily hand of a fat poll
tician the sixth second. and SO ON
through every grade of the human
family tickling the pet emotions and
fattering the respective vanities of
each. Handshalling is judged to be g
simple thing, by the unthinking, but

McKINLEY's SURPRISE.

Major Mckinley is less enthusiastic
but his handshake is a surprise to most
people. It begins in a passive, lifeless
sort of a way, but it ends like climax
in an old-fashioned melodrama The
major is sternly opposed to the new
style of handshake, which requires che
lifting of the hand as high as the head
He always extends his hand on a
straight line from the fourth button OF
his waistcoat, and is quick to grasp
the visitors fingers He raises his arm
slowly about half a foot and then,

down with surprising energy, accom-

Mr.. Bryan's shake is a device tingling
with emotion. blbbling with enthusi-
asm, sizzling with vigor burst ng with
confidence and volcanic in its hearth
ness, cordiality and good Will But it is
artful like the hand grasp OF every
scllooled statesman. Mr.. Bryan never
allows the visitor to do the shaking or
the squeezing He does that and so do
Mex! nley. Hobart and Sewall. It's
matter of self-nreservation, and after
a. Iiat1e practice the habit becomes in
stfnctive. The art lies in crashing tho
extended fingers of the visitor and
holding them in such position that
the visitor cannot get good grip on
the candidates palm. The caller may
try to slide his palm further along, but
the fingers of the candidate hold him
firmly. This gives the candidate a dis
tinct ADVANTAGE, and the practical
Joker, who has a grip like a steel wise
is baked in his endeavor to crush the
| bones of the smiling candidate. This
brand of the practical joker seems TO
make it a business to shake the hands
of great men for the pleasure OF seeing
them vince under mighty pressure. But

them by adopting the candidates grip

and it is feared that she will not survive
the shock. She and her husband, with
their little child, had recently moved into
their new home in San Rafael.
At l 80 O'Clock yesterday morning, when
the accident occurred Mrs. Turney was
visiting at the home of her neighbor, Mrs.
Cochrane. She was waiting for her hus-
band to return, as usual. at 1 o'clock, and
while she was waiting she fell asleep in
the rocking chair. Her husband, she
knew, was late.
Just after she had fallen asleep a mes
senger arrived to tell her that her husband
had been killed.
The members of the Cochrane family re-
ceived the message. They thought best
not to awaken their invalid friend to tell
her of the accident and so Mrs Turney
slept till nearly morning. The news pros
trated the woman. and it is feared that the
result will be fatal.
Mrs. James Morrow of 1876 Fifth street is
a sister of the dead engineer, and Miss
Maggie Turney, another sister, resides
with her. Their mother died two years ago.
William Francis Turner was born in
Corte MADEIRA, Marin County, SO years ago.
He learned his trade as engineer in the
narrow-gauge railroad shops at Sausaiito
and has been in the employ of the COM
PAW over twelve years. He was considered
an unusually careful man, taking no
chances of an accident, which goes to
account for the fact that no mishap ever

1t was not by being crus ed between the
engine and the tender that the man was
Eilled, as had been supposed, but by
drowning. That was ascertained by the
medical examiner after the body had been
taken out of the water yesterday evening.
When the actual plunge came Turney was
caught by one leg between the engine and
lender and the leg was broken, but that
injury would not have been sufficient 10
cause death, and the engineer did not re-
lease MS hold on the lever even while
browning.

home at San Rafael, all paid for with his
earnings on the road during his twelve
years, and everything seemed bright and
fair. Now he is dead and his invalid
widow is heartbroken.

said that he was to blame for the loss of
his own life. That was unjust, because he
was so careful and was always afraid of
the wharf at Sausalito. He would not
have gone on the ferry-boat with his
heavy engine unless be was obliged to do
so, ! know"
Turney was a member of the United
Workmen and the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers, in which orders he had
his life insured for $4,000.
Assistant Superintendent w. II. Han
non stated yesterday that the company
had issued strict orders to all conductors
and engineers under no circumstances to
allow locomotives or tenders to run on the
apron in backing up to the boat for freight
cars. The apron itself, Mr. Harmon said
was capable of sustaining dead weight of
seventy tons. The engine and tank, or
tender, together, weighed but little over
forty tons, the engine alone having q
weight of twenty-five tons.
Both engine and tender, he said, were
run successfully on the apron, Conductor
Murray having signaled to Engineer
Turney to back down TO make the
coupling.
As the engine had taken on three empty
freight cars, Conductor Murray thought it
possible to make the connection without
running on to the apron ANYTHING but the
empty cars. He was not aware that the
cars on the boat were so far from the apron
as to make itimpossible to couple with the
render at safe distance.
In leaving the boat, and in the strain
and pressure incidental to starting the
train, the weight and force of the engine
We're enormously increased and at that
moment the crash came.

knew how he escaped and his friends be-

although every effort has been made to &C
count for the girls absence through all the
usual channels in which information of
missing girls is generally obtained,
nothing has been learned, and her
relatives are as much in the dark as to her
whereabouts and the purpose, if any, of
her disappearance as they were the first
morning after her disappearance. Detec-
tives have been at work. the large number
of friends in the church of the missing
young woman have exhausted every
means at their command, but with no
result.
Miss Fannie Parker lived with her par
ents at 1918 Fourteenth street. Her two
sisters and brother reside there, and the
family is said to have been peculiarly
happy one. All attend the First Bap-
fist Church, and the missing girl S
sister, Emma, also sings in the choir.
Fannie is described by all her frienos and
relatives as a rather dignified young lady,
about q years of age and of such de-
meanor as would command respect from
every one. Her outward bearing was
rather austere and would repel stranger
rather than attract.
She was strict in h er religious ideas, but
frequently attended private party and
seemed to enjoy life. She was not given
to spells of moodiness and was of a cheer
full and pleasant disposition at home. She
was dressmaker by occupation and
earned a comfortable income at her bust
ness. On no occasion had she ever been
known to stay away from her home before,
and her character in every regard is stated
by everybody to be absolutely above re-
proach.
Last Wednesday night she left her home,
and, as it was the regular prayer meeting
night, nothing was thought of her going
out. She did not return and from the

What officers Say.

William F. Turney, the engineer who
lost his life in the wreck at the Sausalito
ferry slip early yesterday morning, died
with his hand at the throttle.
He was trying TO run his engine off the
collapsing wooden apron when taken down
in the crash, and there is no indication
that he made any attempt to escape from
his cab before he was caught and piuioned
by the falling machine. He could have
jumped when the first warning of the
cracking timbers was heard. That was
done by Fireman Williams, but the en-
glneer made the fatal delay of an instant
for the sake of doing his duty.
Turney was a brave man, as his asso-
ciates declare, and the railroad officers tes-
tify that he had always been faithful in
performing his work. He made an error
of judgment in running his engine upon
the apron that connected the wharf with
the steamer. but he did all in his power to
