The Globe - Thursday, May 2, 1895

The trial of Oscar Wilde and Taylor was concluded today. After deliberating three and a half hours the jury returned to the court room and announced that they had failed to agree upon a verdict. They were thereupon discharged, and the prisoners were remanded for a new trial. Application was made for the admission of Wilde and Taylor to bail, but the Judge refused to accept bail for either of them.

The jury acquitted Wilde of the charges against him in connection with Atkins, and reported to the court that it was impossible for them to agree in regard to the other charges. They, however, acquitted him of the charges of conspiracy. Mr. Gill, for the prosecution, said the case would undoubtedly be tried at the next session.
