The JUDGE adhered to his decision.
Sir EDWARD CLARKE, on behalf of the prisoner, said he had to deal with the remnants of the case. He animadverted upon the conduct of the case by the counsel for the Crown, and said he should call Wilde to face for the third time any cross-examination to which he might be subjected. He submitted that Wilde’s conduct throughout had been that of an innocent man, and on the evidence he urged that the jury could only return a verdict of not guilty.
