DERNIÈRES DÉPÊCHES
L'AFFAIR OSCAR WILDE
Londres, samedi 25 mai.
Le sollicitor général a terminé samedi matin son réquisitoire en remerciant Dieu de ce que sa modeste intelligence ne lui permit pas d'apprécier le langage d'Oscar Wilde à Douglas autrement qu'à sa propre valeur, c'est-à-dire comme indigne même de nos bestiaux.
Le juge a pris la parole à midi et demi et déclare que la propre confession du prisonnier corroborait parfaitement les charges relevées contre lui.
LATEST DISPATCHES
THE OSCAR WILDE AFFAIR
London, Saturday May 25.
The solicitor general ended his indictment on Saturday morning by thanking God that his modest intelligence did not allow him to appreciate the language of Oscar Wilde to Douglas other than at its own value, that is to say as unworthy even our cattle.
The judge spoke at half past twelve and said the prisoner's own confession fully corroborated the charges against him.
