Oscar Wilde.
London, May 25.—Oscar Wilde's case has been adjourned, the charge against him in connection with Shelley has been withdrawn as there was no corroborative evidence.
The Judge said he was of opinion that Shelley suffered delusions and that there was nothing unnatural in his friendship with the accused.
The evidence, too, did not prove otherwise than that their friendship was perfectly honorable.
In his evidence Wilde denied in toto all the charges made against him.
