Says the Marquis of Queensberry, Will Be Acquitted.
LONDON, May 24. — The Marquis of Queensberry, in an interview, is quoted as saying: "I do not wish to see Wilde further punished. He has suffered enough. I only want to keep the beast from my son. You know I have carried my point, and that I have been praised by the best selected jury which ever sat in God or man's jury box. Consequently I do not care what else is now done to Wilde. One of his companions has been found guilty, and every one in London knows that Wilde is no better than Alfred Taylor."
