Oscar Wilde Convicted.
(Copyright, 1895, Associated Press.)
London, May 2. -- The jury in the Oscar Wilde case, after being out four hours, returned a verdict of guilty on all the counts against him. The judge in imposing sentence administered a severe rebuke to both Wilde and Alfred Taylor, and then sentenced each to two years at hard labor. He also intimated that action might be taken against Lord Alfred Douglas, the son of the marquis of Queensberry, saying that his title would not shield him from justice.
