FERRER — WHOSE DEATH HAS SHAKEN EUROPE; Story of the Teacher Who in a Career of Only Eight Years Grew to Be a Menace To the Power of the Clericals in Spain. Ferrer, the Man Whose Death Has Shaken Europe. AN armchair philosopher, comfortably discussing the shooting of Prof. Francisco Ferrer by the Spanish soldiery, remarks that it is “absurd to call it a new Dreyfus case.” If not absurd, it is erroneous; for great as was the horror excited all over the world by the Dreyfus case, that horror did not extend to such length as the revulsion from Spain consequent upon Ferrer’s killing has done.
