WILDE'S TRIAL POSTPONED.
There Seems Now Little Chance of
His Conviction and Indignant Comment
Is
Heard on All Sides.
London, May 20 — The Old Bailey Court was crowded today at eleven o’lock in the morning, when Justice Wills, accompanied by the Lord Mayor of London, Right Hon. Sir Joseph Renals, and several aldermen took their seats upon the bench preparatory to the commencement of the second trial of Oscar Wilde, who is charged with serious misdemeanors. Wilde had previously been driven to the Old Bailey. He was accompanied by Lord Douglas, of Hawick, and the Rev. Stewart Headlam, his two bondsmen. He looked haggard, but had apparently improved in health since his release on bail, and walked smilingly into the prisoner’s dock, where he took his seat beside Alfred Taylor, who is charged with similar offences.

Sir Edward Clarke, Q. C., counsel for Wilde, immediately made an elaborate argument in favor of having Wilde tried separately. The Judge agreed to this, and decided to try Taylor first. Sir Edward Clarke then dwelt at length on the great injustice which was to his client by having to wait while Alfred Taylor was tried. But in spite of the argument of his counsel, Wilde looked only too pleased as he stepped from the dock, and the Judge allowed his bail to be renewed, and he was again released from custody after filing his personal bond in $12,500, and finding two sureties, Lord Douglas, of Hawick, and Rev. Stewart Headlam; in $6250 each.

It is probable that Wilde[sic] case will go over until next session of the central criminal court and there is evidently but a slight chance of his conviction. Indignant comment is heard on all sides at the turn events have taken.
