THE WILDE SCANDAL.
Special—By Telegraph—Copyright. London, May 22. Oscar Wilde is being retried to-day before a fresh jury.
Wilde is being tried on a charge of indecency in conjunction with Taylor, Woods, and Sheiley. The Marquis of Queensberry is attending the trial.
It was not Lord Alfred Douglas, bat Lord Douglas of Hawick, with whom the quaxiel occurred. The latter accused his father of sending insulting letters to Lady Douglas because he was one of Wilde's sureties. The Marquis of Qaeensberry cried out that he was anxious to renew the fight for LIO.OOO, and, addressing the crowd, said he disowned his son. Both defendants were bound over in sureties of LSOO each to keep the peace.
