TRAGEDY AT
SAN FRANCISCO.
J. F. Turner, a Real Estate Agent,
Shot and Killed.
Joseph Frenna, a Barber, Fired the Bullet
Which Caused His Death.
The Fatal ARRAY the Outgrowth of
a Long-Standing Feud Between
the Two Men Arising From a
Land Deal in Fresno and So
noma Counties.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29.-J. +.
Turner, a real estate agent Of this city,
was shot and killed by Joseph Frenna,
a barber in the corridor of the third
floor of the Crocker building this ,nornt
ing, as the result of a long standing
feud arising from land deal in Fresno
and Sonoma Counties.
Turner was convicted Of perjury and
sentenced to Imprisonment for ten
years by Judge Cook of this city on
October ), 1897, in connection with the
deal which led to the tragedy, but was
granted a new trial by the Supreme
Court.
Frenna's story of the affair is as fol-
lows: My place of business is at the
northwest corner of Polk and Sutter
streets. For years have been Duylng
and selling BARRIERS places and fitting
up new shops for men going into busl-
ness. l first met Turner in 1891. he
was introduced TO me through friend
of mine, named ]. Busquet, who knew
that my business was general specu-
lating, and that 1 loaned money.
AT first 1 trusted Turner and ad-
vanced him sums for which he gave
me deeds to land as security. The
deeds proved worthless. 1 had Turner
convicted of three felonies, forgery,
grand larceny and perjury. He appeal
ed the first two. and won on technl-
calities. The perjury case is still in the
Supreme Court In all Turner robbed
me of $17,500, and twenty years Of my
life.
Il killed him in self-defense. 1 went
into the Crocker building on business.
AS 1 stepped out of the elevator l en-
countered Turner. Before 1 said word
Turner stepped toward me, crying,
You -- at the
same time placing his hand ct his hip
pocket. Supposing he intended TO Kill
me, I instantly drew my pistol and
fired. 1 have no clear recollection OF
what happened after. There were five
chambers in my revolver, and find
them all empty. / did just what any
American citizen would do under the
circumstances-defen my life
George D. Collins. attorney for Tur-
ner, said: Turner never robbed F'ren-
ma out of cent. Both men were rart-
ners in speculations and enterprises
which bordered on fraud. although they
may have been within the law. Fren-
ma was a particeps crimlnis, so to
speak. They expected to make money
out of the cupidity of the public. Fren-
ma thought he would get immense re-
turns. The returns came. but they
went into Turner'S pocket F'renna got
his capital back and a snail profit. He
was chagrined because Turner was
growing rich, and he began to shout
Robbery He was as ,suilty as Tur-
ner was, but not so successful.

munity regards itself as possessing solely a
negative capacity. to prevent the infrac-
ton of laws already enacted instead Of
seeking at every turn in the public affairs
opportunities to provide new safeguards
against disaster or disorder. The newspa-
pers frequently furnish the most active in
itiative in pointing out dangers and sug-
costing remedies. Intelligent citizens turn
aside from their own concerns to interest
themselves in the general welfare and to
voice their suggestions in print. But very
often even these agencies are unavailing
and disasters invited by sloth. Some
times the disasters themselves fail to en-
force their own lesson.
What has happened in Connecticut may
happen anywhere in the country where
trolley cars are run in and out of town at
high speed. 1t should not depend upon cor
oner's juries to provide the protection to
the patrons of these cars which is so easily
available. Thorough and frequent inspec-
tior by municipal officials should reveal
points of strength and weakness. No toler-
aDce- should be granted when a flaw is dis
covered. The security of the people is far
more worthy of consideration than the con-
venience or the finances of the. offending or
negligent corporation. 1t is only through
incessant watchfulness and intelligent SUI
pervision that these danger points are
guarded, and this process ought in every
case to be spontaneous on the part of the
ccmmunity's chosen authorities.

What is to become of Captain Dreyfus?
Consider him again convicted. Will he be
returned to Devils Island? His enemies
will insist on that. They will demand that
his former sentence be reimDosed. and
argue that the second finding against him
calls for the severest punishment that can
D. inflicted. And that would be far and
away the severest. Death itself would be
Infinitely preferable to the unhappy man.

Snagine him. after five years of expert
ence of them, and a brief respite in France

back to resume the agony of ignominy,
isolation and silence in that tropical waste.
Consider him acquitted. Where shall he
live? What shall he do? Where will his
life be safe? He will have his commission,
and be entitled to reassignment to army
duty. But the army will be against hlm
1t is clear that the army is fatally COM
promised in the premises. The little fell
lows reflect the bitterness of their chiefs,
and the chiefs, almost to a man, are
against the man whom so many helped to
degrade. Popular passion is even stronger.
A miscreant was found to attempt the as
sassination of Labori Will it be difficult
to find one to put an end to Dreyfus!
Where shall he be safe, in the army or
out from the hatred of those who have
already gone so far and descended so low
in pursuit of him, and to whom his ac-
qu;ttal will be official badge of
shame?
Acquittal will mean the official removal
of the stain upon the name of Dreyfus,
and for that he longs more than for life
and restoration to family And the pathetic
truth is that such. in the main, is all that
1t will mean or accomplish. Wife and
children, and friends await him, but the
husband. father. friend who left them will

It is reassurng to learn that the experts
/ detailed by the marine hospital service to
| inquire into the Sanarelli yellow fever the
cries have reported that they believe the
specific germ which causes that disease to
have been isolated and identified Much
doubt has been cast upon the accuracy of
Sanarelli's conclusions. His serum has not
been adopted. because many practitioners
have felt that he had not in fact identified
the germ. But the report now on file from
two of the most expert investigators in
this country appears to be conclusive on
the score of the identity of the germ, while
it does not accept the serum. 1t expresses,
however, the belief that serum of suffi-
cient potency to cure the disease will be
Forthcoming now that the germ has been
positively identified. This seems to have
been the case with most of the bacterial
diseases which have been assailed by mod
ern science. Consumption is a marked ex-
ception. Kochs lymph is now a discredited
and practically abandoned specific Other
serum treatments, however, are in vogue
and appear to be holding their ground de-
spite criticism and opposition. The theory
of the anti-toxine treatment is to kill the
germ with it's own product. The problem
in the yellow fever inquiry, therefore, is
to cultivate the bacillus icteroides of Sana-
relli to the point where 1t will yield an
anti-serum, toxin, sufficiently potent to
permit the direct and specific treatment of
patient known positively to be suffering
from this disease. Two highly important
conclusions are reached incidentally by the
Investigators. One is that infection takes
place by way of the respiratory tract,
rather than the alimentary tract, the
disease having preliminary condi-
ton marked by infection of the
lungs Thence, the report concludes, the
organism of the disease passes into the
blood. Herein may prove the opportunity
for successful treatment with remedy
at hand which will arrest the development
of the disease prevent the saturation OF
the blood with the malevolent germs. The
second CONF fusion of particular interest Is
that the bacillus of the fever is not killed
by cold thus refuting general belief that
the frosts put an end to epidemics because
% the lowering of the atmosphere. A rea-
sonable theory is advanced now to meet
this novel disclosure. 1t is found that the
bacillus is extremely susceptible to dry
ness, being destroyed when the moisture is
excluded from the air for several days. 1t
is suggested that the killing of the germ
by the frosts Is due to the drying out of
the air which the freezing process causes
There would indeed seem to be direct
connection between the life of the germ
and the moisture of the air, for the dis
ease is most prevalent in exceptionally
damp climates, and at those times when
the seasons bring special saturation of
the atmosphere. These two disclosures
may in time effect as important advances
in the campaign against this disease tne
isolation of the bacillus itself, leading,
maybe, to modes of treatment and to pro-
cesses of prevention which are at present
unknown.
