London, May 20. - The Old Bailey Court was crowded today when Justice Wills, accompanied by the Lord Mayor of London, the Rt.-Hon. Sir
Joseph Ronals, and several Aldermen took their seats upon the bench preparatory to the commencement of the second trial of Oscar Wilde. Wilde appeared,
accompanied by Lord Douglas of Hawick and the Rev. Stewart Headlam, his bondsmen. He walked smilingly into the prisoners' dock, where he took his stand
beside Alfred Taylor, charged with similar offenses.
London, May 20. -- The Old Bailey court was crowded to-day at 11 o'clock in the morning, when Justice Wills, accompanied by the lord
mayor of London, Right Hon. Sir Joseph Ronals, and several aldermen took their seats upon the bench, preparatory to the commencement of the second trial
of Oscar Wilde, who is charged with serious misdemeanors. Wilde had previously been driven to the Old Bailey. He was accompanied by Lord Douglas, of
Hawick, and the Rev. Stewart Headlum, his two bondsmen. He looked haggard, but had apparently improved in health since his release on bail, and walked
smilingly into the prisoners' dock, where he took his stand beside Alfred Taylor, who is charged with similar offenses.
Sir Edward Clarke immediately made an elaborate argument in favor of having Wilde tried separately. The Judge agreed to this and
decided to try Taylor first. Wilde looked pleased as the Judge allowed his bail to be renewed. It is now probable Wilde's case will go over until next
session of the Central Criminal Court, and there is evidently but slight chance of his conviction. In consequence indignant comment is heard on allsides
at the turn events have taken.
In the meanwhile, the trial of Alfred Taylor proceeded.
