London, May 23. -- The Old Bailey court was again crowded to-day when the trial of Oscar Wilde was resumed. Wilde entered the
courtroom looking haggard and stood for some time on the foot of the jury boxs conversing with the Rev. Stewart Headlaw, one of his bondsmen. They were
joined later on by Lord Douglas, of Hawick, whose eye is still discolored as a result of his encounter with his father, the marquis of Queensberry in
Piccadily on Tuesday afternoon, for which they were both bound over yesterday in £500 bail to keep peace. The marquis of Queensberry was also in court,
looking jannty and confident. He had watched Wilde closely and paid great attention to the evidence. Wilde, it was noticed, carefully avoided the gaze of
the marquise.
Wilde, Lord Douglas, of Hawick, and the Rev. Stewart Headlaw remained in earnest conversation until the judge took his seat. They
listened attentively to all the testimony furnished, evidently weighing every word uttered as studlously as counsel on both sides. The earnest
conversation of the trio was an incident which attracted much attention and was considerably commented upon, but when the case was reopened the evidence
furnished at the previous trial was repeated in detail no new points of any importance have been given.
Sir Edward Clarke, counsel for Wilde, read in full the evidence furnished by his client when the latter was examined upon the
occasion of the trial of the marquis of Queensberry on the charge of libel. This occupied several hours, at the expiration of which time Sir Edward Clarke
addressed the jury in behalf of Wilde.
