sHARON's HILL.
The Case to be Tried Next Wee

The Case to be Tried Next Week,
San Francisco, 19.-The case OF
Miss Hill, claiming to be the wife OF
Senator Sharon, and charging him
with adultery, was called In the
police court this morning. Owing
to the reported absence Of Nelson,
Miss Hills attorney, from the city,
counsel for the prosecution asked a
continuance of one week. The mo.
ton was opposed by Sharon's attor-
ney, who insisted that the case
should proceed on the day set, Oc-
tober 18th. After a long argument
the court granted the continuance.
The probabilities are the case will
be tried as a misdemeanor and not
as a felony, as originally intended,
it having been discovered by Miss
Hills counsel that the person with
whom adultery is charged is single
woman, and not married as was
stated in the complaint.

alone Of the court are approved by
the President. The findings and

promulgating the above, Secretary
Lincoln writes as follows: No assent
