LONDON, April 6. -- Although Oscar Wilde is languishing in jail as a criminal without bail on a heinous charge, he still has a number
of influential friends who are zealous in his defense, notwithstanding that they are intimate enough with him to know most of the secrets of his private
life. Lord Douglas of Hawick, second and eldest living son of the Marquis of Queensberry, is one of these. He is altogether the manliest-looking of the
family. Before the death of his elder brother. Viscount Drumlanrig, he was well and favorably known as plain Percy Douglas. He has an unsmirched
reputation, and entirely differs in every respect from his effeminate next younger brother. Lord Alfred Douglas. Since his return from Australia last Fall
Lord Douglas of Hawick has been an almost constant associate of Oscar Wilde. He is willing at any time to go upon the witness stand in Wilde's behalf, and
is vehement in his denunciation of Wilde's counsel for having withdrawn the suit.
