The trial of Oscar Wilde and Alfred Taylor for unnatural crimes began in the Central Criminal Court of the Old Bailey to-day. Charles Parker and other witnesses who testified at the preliminary hearings, were called to the stand and repeated the stories tbey had previously told. Wilde looked careworn and. anxious, and -was much thinner than usual. The fact that he had his hair -cut, added to his attenu ated appearance. Taylor retained his air of unconcern. Both prisoners plead ed not guilty. The opening speech of counsel for the prosecution was a repeti tion of his previous arguments. - The evidence given by tne young man Parker was vastly more disgusting than the testimony he gave at the hearing in the Bow Street Police Court. Upon Cross-examination, he swore that Wood and Allen received 400 blackmail from a. gentleman with! whom they were guilty of misconduct in that gentle man's lodgings, and that he himself had received- 30 from the same person for the same reason.

Prices Shoved Irregularity In the Cotton Market, Bat the Net Advance Was 9 to IO Points. Special By Private Wire to Harrison Watts. Sxw Yosx, April 20. The speculation took rather a wider sweep to-day, the trans actions being; larger and the outside de mand a little better. Prices showed irreg ularity, advancing 8 to 5 points early in the dav. then losing this and decllnins 1 to 3. only to recover the loss and make a net ad vance of 9 to 10 points as compared with last night's final figures, tne closing tone being firm with sales of 202,100 bales. Of course the May notices to-day were the absorbing interest, and the fact that a large bull house here stopped tenders of about 43,000 bales, contributed much to the firmness which, on the whole, characterized the market. Besides, Liverpool was active and higher, advancing i-83d.on tne spot with sales of 18,000 bales, and 4 points for future delivery. At one time there was a reaction, as al ready Intimated, and this was due to the loss of most of the early advance in Liver pool and heavy selling here by very promi nent bulls and others. The Liverpool mar ket closed oulet at a net advance for the day of only half a point. The Manchester private cables, however, were strong- New Orleans advanced 10 points on August. Liv erpool and the continent sent a good many buying orders. Local and Southern opera tors bought to a very fair extent, and in the late trading there was very little disposi tion to sell, so that prices were readily ad vanced. Fall Kiver reports are favorable. Manchester is said to be doing a good busi ness It is believed that the interior towns will get about 22.O0O bales for the week, and inat interior biooks win lose someui n ; like 28,000. Houston reports heavy ralus last night. Hillsboro states that rain fell for three hours last night. Other Texas points report fair rains. More are pre dicted. In Manchester yarns were strong and eloths in moderate demand. Spots here were easy, with sales 01 eoo lor export and 104 for spinning. The Southern spot markets were gener ally quiet and unchanged. Norfolk de clined 1-1S0. Mobile sold 400 bales. Re ceipts at New Orleans to-morrow are esti mated at 4,000 to 6,000 against 1,457 and 1,743. The total interior receipts for tbe week are estimated at 22,000 against 24,ise last week n.nd l.08ft last Tear. The Liverpool weekly ootton statistics show sales for the week of 92,000, American 85,000; total imports, 7,000, American 78; total stocks, 1,7K,000, Includ ing 1,800,000 American: total afloat, 110,000, Including 105.000 Amei lean. Crawford, Tex., reports rain, and adds: "Prospects are improving daily." A New Orleans dispatch said: "The present con dltlon of tne planting season Is unsur passed." The 2,000,000 surplus visible and in visible will make itself felt shortly. It is still an irregular and feverish market, as may be easily inferred, and dominated largely by Southern weather news and English advices. Utiviss A Co. NSW XOKK MONK" MAKKKT.

This induced shorts to cover, and after the initial transactions our market became very firm, the demand becoming better as the session advanced. The strength seems to hlnse mainly on the good cash inquiry. New York reports a number of loads worked there, and while we near of no sales in tnls market, tne inquiry is very orisx, especially at a slight concession in price.
