Oscar Wilde and Alfred Taylor were arraigned in the Central Criminal Court, Old Bailey, this morning, for re-trial. Wilde was
accompanied by his surety, Lord Douglas of Howick, and Rev. Stewart Headlam, and entered the dock smilingly. He is obviously very much improved in health
and spirits as well. Sir Edward Clarke asked for a separate trial for Wilde, the indictment against him differing from that against Taylor. The Court
granted Wilde a separate trial and the first case, that against Taylor, proceeded.
Charles and William Parker, the brothers who gave evidence at the first trial, were again called as witnesses and repeated the testimony
that gave before, except that the cross examination to which they were submitted elicited from them further admissions as to their blackmailing practices.
Counsel for Taylor instanced four cases in which the parkers Bros. separately, and conjointly with Wood and Allen, had extorted hush money, Wilde was
released on bail, his former sureties being renewed until the conclusion of Taylor’s trial.
