SHORT CONTINUANCE IN
TURNER DIVORCE CASE
Judge Says He VIII Proceed After
Trial Now the Docket Is
Disposed OF

Because Of the absence Of Mrs. Janet
Turner, the district attorneys office
yesterday asked for a continuance of
the trial Of her husband, Frank d.
Turner, jr., son of a wealthy real
estate broker Of Pasadena, who was
arrested in early June, charged by his
wife with failure TO provide.
In support of the motion for a post
ponement of the trial. Seward A. Sim
monds, Mrs. Turner's attorney, pre-
sented a physicians affidavit, stating
the woman is i'll in White Plains, y.
Y. Delay was opposed by Turner'S
attorney, II. II. Appel, who claimed the
only purpose in asking for the contin-
uance was in the hope of securing a
money settlement of the matter. No
proposition of this character, he said,
would be considered
My client" said the attorney, has
always been willing to support his
wife, but as for living with her again
he would prefer to rot in the peni-
tentiary."
Judge Davis of the criminal court,
before whom the matter was heard,
said the case would follow one on trial,
adding unless better reasons could be
advanced why the trial should not pro-
ceed the charge against Turner prob
ably would be dismissed.

TO SPRING SENSATION
IN CONTEST OF WILL
LIFE OF BENEFICIARY TO BE
RAKED OVER
Charges of Wrongdoing Filed Five
Years Ago to Be introduced in
Evidence Against Miles
A. Long

Attorneys representing contestants
who are seeking to break the VIII OF
William Riley in proceedings betore
Judge Conrey of the superior court
began Yesterday a search of the Grim
inaI records. and as a result the Will
contest bids fair to revive occurrences
of more than five years ago, When
sensational charges Of Wrongdoing
were filed against Miles A. Long, the
beneficiary under the Riley Will,
against whom the present proceedings
are directed.
The purpose for which these records
will be brought into the case was not
stated by the attorneys for the Riley
heirs Yesterday. These records, Whlcn
are on file in Justice Stephens court,
show Long was arrested March IL
1905. on a complaint sworn to by
Charles L. Otto. charging a serious
offcnse against young girl Long oS 3
preliminary hearing was set for 9;3O
o'clock March 2S, 1905, but on that day
after waiting an hour for Long to ap-
pear. his bail was declared forfeited
Inv Judge stephens and a bench war
rant for his arrest was issued.
Long. it is said, remained away
from Los Angeles until September,
1908. He was arrested on the 18th OF
that month and again released on a
bond of $4,000, furnished by his WIFE,
Julia T. Long, and Jennie Riley.
Ten days later, on motion of District
Attorney McComas, the case was dis
missed. owing, it is claimed, to the
denarture of material witnesses.
The principal witness in the case
Yesterday was Elmer T. Riley, a
nephew of the decedent, who testified
he had had seen his uncle frequently
for a week or more before his death
and that he appeared to be mentally
dcranged.

THIRTY YEARS IN
PRISON IMPOSED
MAN WHO ASSAULTED PAWN
BROKER SENTENCED
MOTHER PLEADS FOR LENIENCY
FROM COURT
Prisoners Threat He Would XIII Him
self Causes Sheriff to Place Him
Where He Can Be OBJ
served Closely

Thirty years in Folsom penitentiary
was the sentence imposed by Judge
Willis of the criminal court yesterday
on Florian H. Franklin, who on De-
cember murderously attacked David
Cohn in the latters pawnshop at 2OS
West Seventh street and robbed the
place of iewelry and other articles es-
timated in value at S775.
He couldn't hit me very much hard
er, could he?" remarked Franklin to
his attorney, viii D. Gould, when he
heard the sentence.
Franklin was taken back to the
county Jail, where he will remain two
days before going to the penitentiary.
Before his appearance in court yes
terday he told one of the prisoners in
the jail if the sentence meted out to
him was for q longer period than
twenty years he never would be taken
to the states prison alive. This re-
mark reached the ears of Sheriff Ham
mel, and when Franklin was returned
to the Jail he was placed in corner
cell facing a corridor through when
tail attendants constantly pass and
where he can be observed almost every
minute of the day or night.
Franklin pleaded guilty TO the charge
of robb ry Tuesday. When he entered
the COZ ftroom yesterday he found his
mothe'Y Mrs. Mary Franklin, and At
torney Gould awaiting him. The lat
ter pleaded for leniency, and Mrs.
Franklin, when called to the witness
chair. expressed the belief her son
had committed the robbery while his
mind was deranged.
Opium Causes Derangement
This arrangement, she said, was due
To his efforts to overcome desire for
opillm. to the use of which he became
addicted while an inmate of the Whit
