IN .ENGLAND.THE \u201cCRA Til IE\"-iiELRh\u201d TER.DIS AS- Lord Sholto Dougins Very Impecunious\u2014 Marriago of Ex-Mayor Giant of New York\u2014Fatal Fire in Poland.London, April 30.\u2014At the opening of today s sitting of the trial of Oiear Wilde and Alfred Taylor, Councillor C.F.Gill intimated that the prosecution would withdraw the charges of conspiracy.Sir Edward Clarke said that if those charges had been withdrawn at the outset he would have made application to have the prisoners tried separately.The Court said that after the evidence which had been given on those counts the charges of conspiracy were needless.Sir Edward Clarke \u2014\"Then I ask for a verdict of not guilty on those counts.\u201d The Judge refused to listen to such a verdict, saying he would simply accede to the application of Mr.Gill to have the charges of conspiracy withdrawn.Sir Edward Clarke then began his opening address to the jury for the defence.He intended, he said, to put Wilde in the witness box, where he would make an unqualified denial of the charges against him.He cited Wilde's literary works and argued that in no instance has his client written anything that would lead anyone to suppose him guilty of the practices alleged.Sir Edward explained the ending of the Queensberry trial, saying that Wilde\u2019s counsel were entirely respon sible for its abrupt termination.It became clear, hs said, that the jury would not convict Lord Queensberry, and he (Clarke) therefore advised Wilde to accept a verdict against himself.Wilde was called to the witness stand.He swore that the evidence he had given at the Queensberry trial was absolutely true.He repeated his testimony upon cross-examination without variation.Wilde, continuing his testimony, said he had nothing to do with publishing Lord Alfred Douglas\u2019 poems, nor had he had anything to do with the publication of his articles in the Chameleon (magaxine).On being asked to define Lord Alfred's expression, \"I am the love that dare not speak its name.\u201d Wilde said he thought it meant spiritual love, as pure as it was perfect.Wilde proceeded to enlarge upon the subject and became so eloquent as to evoke a burst of applause, causing the Judge to threaten to clear the Court unless silence was observed.Alfred Taylor, co-defendant with Wilde, was called to the stand and tuld of his career.He was educated at Marlborough College, he said, and became an officer in the militia, but abandoned military life on coming into an inheritance of £45,000.He absolute ly denied the charge made against him.The marriage of the Dowager Duchess of Marlborough to Lord William Bcresford took place in St.George's Church, Hanover Square, at one o\u2019clock this afternoon.The weather was delightfully clear and bright and the church was crowded with aristocratic guests.A Kill choral service was performed and the ceremony was conducted by the Rev.Edgar Sheppard, hi.A., the Queen\u2019s Chaplaiu-in-Ordinary, assisted by the Rev.Mr.Anderson, the Vicar of St.George\u2019s.The church was beautifully decorated with palms, orchids and flowers.The chancel screen was interlaced with white cut flowers and the altar was covered with floral pieces of exquisite design.At the conclusion of the ceremony the pair walked to the vestry where they appended their names to the register.The couple shortly reappeared and walked down the aisle to the strains of the wedding march.The bride and groom then entered a carriage and were driven to the residence of the Duchess, No.3 Carleton House Terrace, where they held a recepliun this afternoon.Later they started for the Duchess\u2019 seat, Deepdene,\u2019Dorking.There were present in the church the Marchioness of Waterford, the Marquis and Marchioness of Lansdowne, the Earl and Countess of Huntingdon, Lord and Lady Coonemara, the Earl of Jersey, Lady de Trafford, the Dowager Countess of Shrewsbury, Mrs.Ronalds and the Marchioness of Dufferin and her daughter, Lady Hermione Blackwood.The bride\u2019s travelling costume w as of Venetian brocade on a heliotrope ground.The presents were numerous and magnificent.The official enquiry into the sinking of the North German Lloyd* s s.\"Elbe,\u201d by the British steamer \"Crathie,\u201d was resumed at Lowestoit this morning.No North German Lloyds witnesses were present at to day\u2019s sitting.Mr.Sharpe, the steward of the \"Cra-thie,\u201d was called to the witness stand.He testified that he saw the lights of a four-masted steamer across the bows of the \"Crathie\u201d and immediately afterwards there was a tremendous crash.Tho captain came on deck and shouted to the mate i \"You\u2019ve done it now,\u201d Seaman Oran, who was steering the \"Crathie\u201d at the time of the collision, said there was a weather screen on the starboard side of the \"Crathie\" which prevented him from seeing in any direction except right ahead of him.He first saw the mast head light of the \"Elbe\u201d when that vessel was only, ten yards off.He shouted an alarm and immediately afterward heard the order \"Hard a port.\u201d He attempted to obey the order, but before it could be carried out the ships came together.Miss \"Josephine Chamberlain, youngest daughter of Mr.W.S.Chamberlain, of Cleveland, Ohio, was married to-day to Mr.T.T.L.Scarisbrick, of Southport, Lancashire.The ceremony took place in St.John\u2019sChuroh, Hollingdon, Uxbridge.The bride was given away by Capt.Naylor Leyland, who married Miss Jenny Chamberlain, a sister of the bride, in 1887.The church was beautifully decorated with flowers and the service was full choral.Berlin, April 30\u2014A despatch from Breslau says that a terrible conflagration has occurred in the small Polish, town of Brzesnica.Sixty-five houses were

*the case of David vs.Dufresne.This was an action by Joseph David against the testamentary executors of his deceased sister, who had bequeathed her property, $150,000, to the Sisters of the Sacred Heart at Sault au Recollet.It was alleged that Miss David, before her death, had been admitted Ma.boarder into the convent.Although considerably over the regulation age, she had been subsequently

opened to-day before Chancellor Boyd.A number of cases of unusual importance will come up, the most important being three charges of murder, one against Clara Ford, charged with the murder of young Westwood by shooting him on his door step one night last winter ; a second against the twin brothers Hyams, charged with killing young Wells two years ago with a view to getting the insurance placed upon him, and against Dicks, the man whose wife was killed in the burning of his house and who is charged with having been the cause of her death.The Grand Jury will consist of 12 instead of 24 as usual and the consent of seven only is necessary to finding a bill.The first case called was that of Clara Fold.Mr.B.B.Osler, Q.C., prosecutes and Mr.E.F.B.Johnston, Q.C., defends.Mr.Oxler, in his opening address, mentioned a point that had not hitherto been brought d< wu in the case.The pistol found on Clara Ford, he said, was an old German instrument, defective in such a way as to mat k bullets fired from it.Since the revolver had been in the possession of the Crown some bullets had been fired from it and the marks made on them agreed exactly with the marks found on that taken from young Westwood\u2019s body.Just before the close of the Court the Grand Jury brought in a true bill for murder against the Hyams brothers.Alex.C.(«.Wilkie, the alleged defaulting cashier of

her picked regiments to the braves of the tight little island.But why continue the record ?Everyone knows the prowess of British arms.England has a way of smiting big and little, when the humblest citizen of her Empire is ill-treated, which for centuries, has been the envy of every Power under Heaven.Nicaragua is a miserable, contemptible excresence on the face of the g\u2019obe.Because it is also very mean and very small, it has no right to injure and insult a gentleman who represents a great nation, within its confines, as Consul.Great Britain would not allow Germany or Russia to act as Nicaragua has done, .without making those nations apologize and pay damages.And it would be a mistake if a small country were allowed to escape from responsibility for her actions, simply because she happened to be small and weak.No one compbiins when a big man smashes a mosquito.The same man could and would kill a lion Both acts can be justified.These Yankee lion-tail-twistcrs make themselves
