LONDON, SATURDAY. Oscar Wilde was placed in the dock at Bow street to-day. Both the court and the precincts were thronged. The
prisoner, who was attired in the heavy overcoat which he wore at the Old Bailey, entered the dock with an easy air, and having deposited his silk hat upon
the seat, bowed slightly to the magistrate, and then leant forward upon the rail and listened attentively to the opening of Mr Gill, who prosecuted for
the Treasury.
Sir John Bridge took his seat a few minutes after eleven. Wilde was simultaneously brought up from the cells. He was attired in a heavy
overcoat which he wore at the Old Bailey. He entered the dock with an easy air, and having deposited his silk hat upon the seat, bowed slightly to the
magistrate, and then leant forward upon the rail, and listened attentively to Mr Gill’s opening.
