Attended Tea Parties.
Oscar Wilde, upon resuming his place on the witness stand, admitted that he had attended tea parties in the room of a man named Taylor, which were artistically furnished and in which perfumes were burning. He denied, however, that he had seen Taylor in a woman's costume. Further questions upon the part of Mr. Carson, counsel for the Marquis of Queensberry, brought forth the admission that Taylor introduced to Wilde five youths whom Wilde gave money and took to a restaurant. Plaintiff admitted that he was not aware that one of them was a valet and another a coachman, or that Taylor had been arrested in a raid on a house on Fitzrey Square. Wilde in answers to the questions, exhibited confusion and contradicted himself frequently. He also lost his temper. Carson's questions were in the main pitiless and unprintable. Carson's cross-examination of plaintiff was concluded at noon, having lasted over six hours.

Wilde Couldn't Stand It.
After the noon recess the crowd in the court room was larger than ever, and the hall and stairs leading to it filled ten deep with well-dressed men waiting to enter. Wilde kept the court waiting ten minutes for which he apologized to the justice, saying that he had been consulting his doctor. After the production of other letters the case for the plaintiff was closed and Carson began his speech for the defense. It was terribly denunciatory of Wilde, who left the court room as soon as counsel for the defendant began to speak.
