A Complete Denial by the Defendant 0f the Horrible Charges. HIS ELOQUENCE APPLAUDED. Wilde’s Counsel Pays Him a. Great Com- pliment—The Platonic Love For Lord Alfred Douglas —- Mrs. Wilde Will Try to Get a Divorce. LONDON, May 1.—'l.‘he Old Bailey was less crowded today when the court opened for what was expected to be the last day of the trial of Oscar Wilde and Alfred Taylor on the charge of serious misdemeanors, etc. Counsel for the crown, when the pro ceedings ‘opened, withdrew the charge of conspiracy against Wilde, saying that he desired to avoid any difiiculty in placing the prisoners in the witness box. . Sir Edward Clarke, Q. 0., counsel for tho accused, demanded a verdict of not guilty on this count, but the judge refused to allow it. Sir Edward Clarke, in the opening speech for the defense, denounced the con- duct of a large section of the press, saying that it was such as to prejudice the case of his client and imperil the interests of jus- ticc. Wilde was then placed upon the stand and absolutely denied that there was a word of truth in the charges of indecency brought against him. He answered the questions of Sir Edward Clarke in sub- dued tones. During the examination of the prisoner by his counsel it was apparent that there was a remarkable change in the character of those attending the trial. It was evi- dent that many of Wilde’s friends were present in court and the general atmos- phere of the place was less hostile to the prisoner than upon previous occasions. Sir Edward Clarke. who will be remem- bered as having withdrawn from the Quecnsberry case, where he acted as coun- sel for Wilde in the prosecution of the mar- quis on the charge of libel, which charge fell to the ground, undoubtedly made a masterly speech today. Clarke Calls Wilde a. Martyr. . In so doing he claimed that Wilde was a martyr and that he had accepted a verdict of not guilty in the Quecnsberry case only because it was evident that it could not be properly tried then. But it could now be determined on a proper issue, according to counsel. When Wilde was placed in the dock, it was evident that he had been well coached for the occasion. He seemed to have lost all his airy swagger which so disgusted all who witnessed it during the former trial. Mr. C. F. Gill, on behalf of the prose- cution. began his cross examination on the same lines as that of Mr. Edward M. Our- son, Q. 0.. who defended the Marquis of Quoensbcrry against the charge of libel, and quoted from the sonnet to Lord Al- fred Douglas, in which occurred the lines, “I am that love, but dare not speak its name.” Mr. Gill asked what was the nature of the love represented in that poem. Wilde, wifli marked deliberation and emphasis, answered: “It is a love not un- derstood in this ccntury. It is the love of David for J onathan—a deep, spiritual afl’ect-ion as pure as it is perfect. It is something this age does not understand. It mocks at it and sometimes puts one into the pillory.” As Wilde finished his answer there were loud cheers from the gallery, which called forth a. rebuke from the judge, who threat- ened to eject those who took part in the demonstration. . After a. short cross examination, during which Wilde denied everything, Charles Parker was examined and cross examined. Sir Edward Clarke, in concluding his address to the jury, contended that there was no real evidence against Wilde except that of blackmailcrs whose testimony should be utterly discredited. Counsel then appealed to the jury not to convict his client unless the evidence against him was overwhelming and asked the jury to liber- ate from a terriblo position “one of the most renowned and accomplished men of letters.” It is announced that Mrs. Wilde has in- structed her attorneys to file a petition for divorce at once. ----- '9— FINANCE—AND COMMERCIAL.
