OSCAR WILDE.
London, May 18.
Oscar Wilde has for some days past been staying with his mother, Lady Wilde, at her town residence in Chelsea. His health is stated to have considerably improved since his release from Holloway, and he has to a large extent regained his spirits. During the whole of the present week he has been busily occupied with his solicitors in preparing his defence at the new trial at the Central Criminal Court next week before Mr. Justice Wills and a jury. With the exception of his legal advisers, only Wilde's most intimate friends have been permitted to see him.

During the whole of the present week he has been busily occupied with his solicitors in preparing his defence. With the exception of his legal advisers, only Wilde's most intimate friends have been permitted to see him. The case is a possibility of its being finished on the second day.
Arrangements have been made for Wilde to surrender to his bail at the Old Bailey at half-past ten on Monday morning, at which hour both his sureties, Lord Douglas of Hawick and the Rev. Stewart Headlam, will be in attendance.
It is understood that both Wilde and Taylor will be tried together.
The case is not expected to last more than three days, and there is a possibility of its being finished on the second day.
