London, May 24.

At the trial of Oscar Wilde the presiding judge said he was of opinion that the prisoner Shelley suffered from delusions, and that there was nothing unnatural in his friendship with the accused. The evidence, too, he said, did not prove otherwise than that their friendship was of a perfectly honorable nature.

The evidence adduced, which was identical with that given at the former trial, remained unshaken.

In his evidence Wilde denied in toto the charges made against him.
