The Hiii-sharon Case Continued.
SAN FRANcIsco, Oct. l3.-The cvse of
Miss Hill, claiming to be the wife of ex
Senator Sharon and charging him with
adultery, was called in the Police Court
this morning. Owing to the reported
absence of Nilsson, Miss Hills attorney,
from the city, counsel for the prosecu-
tion asked o continuance for one week.
The motion was opposed by Sharon's
attorney, who insisted that the case
should roceed on the day set, October
10th. After long argument, the Court
granted a continuance. The probabil.
tiles are that the case will be tried rs q
and not as felony, as
originally intended. it having been dis
covered by Miss Hills counsel that the
person with whom adultery is charged
is single woman and NOT married, as
was stated in the complaint.
Gray Declines TO Make Good His
Threat,
SAN Francisco, Oct. l3.-During the
trial of John s. Gray for embezzlement
he accused certain Harbor Commissioners
of felony, and said he would go before
grand Jury and make statement. Judge
Toohy called the attention of the pres.
ent grand jury to this, and that body
notified Gray that they were ready to
hear him. When Captain Healy brought
him before the jury Gray declined to
make the promised statement before he
had consulted his attorney, as it might
tend to criminate himself. 1t had been
asserted that some $4,000 bad been sent
by the Commissioners to Sacramento to
defeat certain legislation, and number
of individuals have been summoned to
appear before the grand jury noxt Tues
day to tell what they know about the
matter.
