H. G. MEYER,

The alleged disposition of Sherman's interest in the Los Angeles Electric Road was made to the Southern Pa c1hc Company very recently. In the complaint it is alleged that Sherman. while acting as trustee for the Pacific Bank, during period of four years, appropriated to himself much of the property and the earnings of the road During that time Sherman operated ab- solutely without the necessity of ac- counting to any one. The bondholders sacrificed the interest on the investment and Sherman used the earnings of the road as he pleased. It is stated, in the complaint, that the net profits of the road average $50, 1000 a month, and the Pacific Bank now demands from Moses H. Sherman a strict accounting for that money. It will be shown at the trial that during this time Moses H. Sher- man secured a franchise for a road to Pasadena and Santa Monica over the tracks of the Los Angeles Electric Road.
 He built this new road out of the earnings of the Los Angeles road, and he to-day retains absolute possession of them, not only for the profits they bring to him, but as weapon of com petition that may be used at any mo- ment to fight the Los Angeles road. It is claimed also that out of the earnings of the Los Angeles Electric road Sher- rne- built his Phoenix Electric road. This concern was at first a horsecar line, which Sherman extravagantly bonded for $66,000 When machinery, dynamos and motors and other ma terial were taken from the Los Angeles

Sar- gent lost her first officer, William Noring, to the sharks, and the Planter arrived with her captain, F. A. Dow, lying dead, he having died of dysentery. His body was preserved in brine and will be shipped to San Francisco, where he is well known, for interment.
 The sailing of the transport Newport from Honolulu on November 16 was made the occasion for demonstration. There was an immense crowd on the wharf to bid the soldiers farewell
 Three days later another demonstra- tion occurred at the wharf, the occasion being the departure of the transport Pennsylvania for Manila with the Kan sas troops.
 The Miowera brought news that the steamship Columbia had been con demned at Hilo by.a board of survey.

NICARAGUA'S GRANT TO
 THE GRACE SYNDICATE

NEW YORK, Nov. 3o.-There has been much curiosity in financial circles about the terms of the recent grant of the Gov ernment of Nicaragua to the William R.. Grace syndicate of a secondary franchise to construct a canal through that coun- try from tidewater to tidewater.
 Through the courtesy of William R.. Grace the terms of the concession are now made public. After stating in the preamble that the Government of Nicar- agua regards an interoceanic canal through the Nicaraguan Isthmus to be necessary, article I reads:
 ''The Government of the State of Nicar- agua permits Messrs. Edward Eyre and Edward F. Cragin to enter into negotia- tions with the Maritime Canal Company of Nicaragua for the purpose of obtaining for constructing an interoceanic canal known as the Cardenas-Menocal contract, and dated April "A, 1897, which contract shall terminate October g, 1S99."
 In consideration of this grant the grantees agree to form within six months the Government of Nicaragua that the Cardenas-Menocalc contract has been re- scinded, or within six months following the day upon which said contract shall have ceased from any cause save that of rescision, to organize the 1nteroceanic Canal Company
 Throughout the grant the express stipu- lation Is made by the Nicaragua Govern ment that the rights under lne franchise cannot be accepted until after 1t has been established that the Cardenas-Menocal contract has expired.

 Case To-Day

The trial of Mrs. Cordelia Botkin for the murder of Mrs John F. Dunning and her sister, Mrs. Deane. of Dover, Del, will begin before Judge Cook of the Superior Court to-day. The witnesses for the prosecution from Delaware are now on their way to this city and will arrive in ample time to give their testimony, as it is expected to .ake several days to secure a jury and get in the testimony of the To- cal police after the question of jurisdic tion is settled.
 The defense is prepared to make hard fight on every point. The first thing to be decided is the right of a California court to try the case. The trial will prob ably last fully two weeks.
