If I mean to refer to the period of change from 1890's to say 1910, should I say this is the turn of 18th or 19th century?

It would actually be a choice of the 19th or 20th, but either one would be ambiguous. You'd have to say the beginning of the twentieth or end of the nineteenth.

This is the turn of the 19th century. 1910 is in the 20th century.

This would be the turn of the 20th century as the 19th century was ending and turning into the 20th. We are now in the 21st.

If you are refering to events in the United States during this time you can refer to it as the Progressive Era or the Guilded Age. Although historically speaking it is no longer appropriate to call it the Guilded Age, if you are just using for an English class or low level history class, the Guilded Age should be acceptable.

I have to agree that it would be the turn of the 20th century.
