Baltimore, Md., April 4.—Mr. Herbert Beerbohm Tree, the eminent English actor, who is filling an engagement at Albaugh’s Lyceum
Theater, and whose name has been mentioned in the testimony in the Oscar Wilde libel case, was gratified to know that Justice Collins, who is trying the
case, would not allow the counsel to even mention Mr. Tree’s name in connection with the scandalous affair. The justice is quoted as saying that "every
one understands that Mr. Tree’s connection with the case is in every way honorable and praiseworthy."
Mr. Tree said he had sent a cablegram to Sir Edward Carson asking that his connection with the case be fully explained. It read as
follows: Carson, Q. C., Central Criminal Court, London:I see my name mentioned in Wilde case. Am not in possession of evidence, but facts are these:
During rehearsals of "Woman of No Importance," I received anonymous letter, which I considered my duty to at once hand to Mr. Wilde. (Signed.)
TREE.
"The Woman of No Importance" is the play written by Oscar Wilde and first produced by Mr. Tree at the Haymarket Theater, London. The
letter which Mr. Tree received he handed to Mr. Wilde while the latter was on the stage of the theater watching the rehearsal of the play.
