(Spectal to The Evening World.) BERKELEY OVAL, May %.—The finals of the twentieth annual inter- collegiate athletic games began this af- ternoon promptly at 2 o'clock, The trial heats were almost all run yester- day, and the public was thus spared many of the tedious preliminary events that marred the success of last vear's games, o. w. ‘A crowd of about two thousand per- sons, made up largely of college boys and pretty girls, were present to-day, The grand stand would have accom- modated a much greater number, and but for the extreme unwillingness of the management to send out compli- mentary tickets, a far better showing in numbers would have been made, Much dissatisfaction was felt at the poor arrangements made for the com- fort of a great part of the audience, and the grounds were figuratively swathed in red tape. The press representatives were obliged to send out “copy” by messenger boys, who fourht thelr way to the fence and handed it out to such messengers outvide as could be induced to carry it to the distant telegraph sta- tion, not being permitted to go and re- turn themselves. ‘The greater part of the spectators sat on the bluff above the ground.

Declares He Is Innocent and Ex- plains Why He Is F of Young Men. LONDON, May 2.—The jury in the Oscar Wilde case retired at 8.80 o'clock this afternoon. After being out two hours, they returned a verdict of gullty. Justice Wills sentenced Wilde to two years’ imprisonment at hard mbor. At the same time Alfred Taylor, Wilde's wociate, was given a aim- flar sentence. The jury found Wilde gullty on all the counts of the indictment, Including the charge with reference to persona un- known who were also pronounced to be guilty. This probably refers to the Savoy Hotel evidence, to which place Wilde was accused of taking Charles Parker, a gentleman's servant, after treating the latter to a choice dinner at Kett- ner's restaurant. The announcement of the verdict caused a great sensation in court as it was the general impression that Wilde would escape conviction. w Mekes a Statement. ‘While the jury was out, at the request of the representative of the Associated Press, Wilde's counsel procured the fol- Jowing signed statement from Wilde, who was waiting In the prisopers’ room be- low the doc! “The charges alleged against me are entirely untrue, Youth in every form al- ways afscinated me, because youth has naturally that temperament to which the artist has to try to atain, All works of art are works produced in the moment of youth.

George Davis thia morning, and several of the smiling faces that were seen about the corridors of the Hollin: den early In the day wore a very much “ant-upon" expression when it was all over. The miserable showing made by the Giants in the last two games was the subject of Capt, Davis's remarks, There have been one or two of these Itttle star chamber talks before on this trip, and the boys showed their appreciation by: playing better ball, ‘To-day'n wan the cloxing game of the first Western series, and the boys were more than desirous of going back to their Gotham friends with an even break. Jouett Meekin wan called upon to use his mighty right arm in accom- plishing the trick, New York State Winners A delegation of nearly 200 people came over from Buffalo this morning to help root for the boys, Before the game they armed themselves with fish horns, which they used vigorously upon every occasion that presented Itself. Owing to Farrell's absence, Parke Wil- son was forced to do the backstop work for the New Albany boy. ‘The weather was far from being pleasant. All day long dark threaten- ing clouds obscured the sun, and before the game was begun they looked as though about to send down their con- tents at any moment. Despite this, a good sized crowd was present. It will be several weeks before ‘Fat- ty” Childs will again be able to play ball.

(Signed) “OBCAR WILDE.” The document from which the above statement 1s cabled is written throurh- out in Wilde's own writing, which is ex- tremely graceful and firm, on a sheet of foolscap paper, and it is signed with a flourish, When the foreman of the jury deliv- ered the verdict, Wilde, who had entered the prisoners’ dock a moment before, rose from the chair upon which he hed been seated throughout the trial and stood with his arms on the rail of the dock. ‘The Justice's Scathing W . ‘The silence which prevailed through- out the court-room was really painful as Justice Wills ordered that Alfred Taylor should also be summoned before him, Then, in a voice trembling with emotion, the Justice sald: “[ never before had such a shocking case as this to deal with, Two men such as you are, by the very nature of your crime, lost to all sense of remorse for what you have done. To think that you, Taylor, should be the keeper of a male brothel, and that you, Wilde, a man of reputed culture, should be such a per- verter of young men, here is no doubt but that the yer- dict is a just one, and I shall give you the full penalty allowed by the law and J only regret that it 18 not more severe, You are both sentenced to hard labor for a term of two years.” Wilde never once looked at the Judge while the sentence was being pro- nounced, His eyes toyed around the court-room, his face never changed color, and he looked lke a man who had made up his mind to make the | best of a bad situation. ‘Taylor Only Smi ‘Taylor only smiled when sentence was pronounced.
