THE HILEsHARoN SCANDAL.
SAN Francisco, Nov. 21.-The
Sharon>Hill case produced another
scene in court to-day. Nelson,
Miss Hill's attorney, made applica-
tion that the grand jury of the city
and county now engaged in invesii-
eating the charge of forgery against
Miss Hill be recalled and reinstruct
ed by the Judge. The application
was based on the alleged fact that
one of the jurors had openly ex-
pressed his conviction of the truth
of the charge before a decision had
been reached. The courtroom was
packed. Barnes, counsel for Sharon,
stated that, under the penal code,
the grand jury could not be inter-
fered with. He further stated that
in the police court Mr.. Sharon came
and implored investigation, but it
was put off from time to time.
These were facts, he claimed, that
ought to be investigated, and the
grand jury was the only body COM
petent to do it. Mr. Tyler, of coan~
sci for the other side, insisted on
reading a letter he had addressed to
the gradd jury The judge refused
to hear it, if it contained 2nything
Tyler then SAID that he
knew certain Of the gTand jurors
who had been dined and wined by
and that it had been asserted
that Sharon would spend a million
dollars to pat Miss Hill inside the

hear any more and stopped the argu-
nent He said if the court could

GALVESTON, Texas, Nov. 22.-The
fact that }. W. Mackay and General
William j. Palmer, will both arrive
in Texas within a few days, has
given rise to the rumor that the Tel>
fener interests in this state are to be
be consolidated with those of the
Palmer Sullivan syndicate road, from
Rosenberg to Victoria, and built by
Count Teifener, Mackay's brother,
in-law, and known as the New York,
Texas 6 Mexican railroad. 1t is a
non-paying institution. Mackay's
money in the main built the road,
and it is limited that he is tired of
carrying dead weight. Palmer, with
his Mexican National enterprise,
has been trying 10 reach Galveston
and ais to ge to Houston. Palmer's
road, in order to reach Galveston,
will have to do great deal of con-
struc.ion, while Mackay, to make d
paying investment, has 10 build a
road to Houston, easterly, and an
indefinite distance west. 1t is ru-
mored that the combination contem-
plate the New York, Texas & Mex,
lean to a Narrow gauge road, but
Palmer is to build to it on the west
and Mackay to finish it on the cas-
to a connection with Galveston anc
Houston, thus saving for both roao;
construction expenses to large
amount.
