LITTLE GIRL GETS
SUICIDES PROPERTY
freda Brenning Files Deed
Made Out in Her Favor by
Charles Schnelle.

BERKELEY, June 27-Freda Brenning.
f1fteen-year-old girl of West Berkeley,
is the only person to come forward thus
far with legal claim to any of the estate
left by Charles Schnelle, the aged capi-
talist who committed suicide last night
at his residence on California street. A
deed to a lot on California street, close
to Schnelle's home was filed by Miss
Brenning to-day in Oakland The value
of the property is not estimated The
consideration is said to have been love
and affection
Miss Brenning was a favorite of the
aged German. In the deed to the land
which he gave her is stipulation that
the document was not to be filed until
after his death. 1t is not known. as yet,
whether Schnelie left q will, disposine
of his large realty holdings, or of the
money he is known to have had In the
banks
contest for this estate is expected to
be instituted by his two step-daughters.
Mrs. Fred Offe and Mrs. Lena Socke.
daughters of his first wife Schnelle
was married three times, but survived
all his wives. He has sister living in
Cincinnati, who is believed to be his
nearest relative. It is thought that his
affection for John Brennings family may
have led to the making of will by which
they benefit more than through the deed
which was filed today
Postmaster George w. Schmidt said to-
day that Mr.. Schnelles estate consisted
of acreage I'm West Berkeley, and of
money in the First National Bank of
Berkeley. and the German Savings Bank
of San Francisco. Schnelle came to
America on the same ship that carried
the parents OF Mr. Schmidt, and the
postmaster was intimately acquainted
with his affairs. He says that SchnelIe
had genuine affection for the Brennings
and for Freda in particular. but he never
heard OF Schnelle's intention to disin-
herit his stepdaughters or sister in the
girls favor.
