London, April 27 — The trial of Oscar Wilde and Alfred Taylor was resumed in the Central Criminal Court, Old Bailey, this morning. The young man Wood, who testified at the Bow Street examination, repeated his story in great detail on the witness stand. He was cross-examined by Sir Edward Clarke, who showed that witness was a blackmailer. Young Atkins related the story of his visit to Paris with Wilde, but denied that either he or Wilde had been guilty of any misconduct. Counsel questioned him several times whether he had been guilty of blackmail, and each time he answered "I don’t remember." The trial was adjourned till Monday.
