LONDON, April 26 - The trial of Oscar Wilde and Alfred Taylor was begun in the central criminal court, Old Bailey, today.
London, Saturday.The trial of Oscar Wilde and Alfred Taylor was resumed at the Central Criminal Court to-day before Mr Justice
Charles.
Charles Parker and the other witnesses who testified at the preliminary hearings were called to the stand and repeated the stories they
had previously told.
Wilde looked careworn and anxious and was much thinner than usual.
The fact that he had had his hair cut short added to his attenuated appearance. Taylor maintained his air of unconcern.
Both prisoners pleaded not guilty.
The opening speech of the counsel for the prosecution was a repetition of his previous arguments.
The evidence given by the young man Parker was vastly more disgusting than the testimony he gave at the hearings in the Bow st police
court.
Upon cross examination he swore that Wood and Allen had received $2000 blackmail from a gentleman with whom they were guilty of
misconduct in the gentleman's lodgings, and that he himself had received $150 from the same person for the same reason.
