Oscar Wilde and Taylor, His Associate,
Trial.
LONDON April 2G.-Oscar Wilde and
Alfred Taylor we're brought in for trial
today at the Old Bailey and pleaded not
guilty. Men and women sfought for
standing room near the door through
which the prisoners must enter the
court. The jury, composed of highly in
telligent rniddle-aged tradesmen, was
polled at 1920 a. M. A few minutes
later Wilde and Taylor were placed in
the prisoners dock. Wilde's face was
drawn and haggard. His hair had been
cut and bis swagger had entirely disap.
peared. Justice Charles today opened

IN PROTESTANT ONTARIO.
The Action of the Dominion Government
Very Unpopular.


Very Unpopular.
OTTAWA, March EFT The news from
Winnipeg that Premier Greenway has de-
clnred that 1.-THE governor generals order
will be rejected in its entirety" while not
unexpected has created great excitement
in official circles. 1t is admitted that the
situation is pregnant with critical posi-
bilities, and that much depends upon the
action of the Dominion government. 1t
is, of course, possible that the Manitoba
legislature may shelve the question for q
year, as the federal parliament has no
jurisdiction till the government of the
province acts, or refuses to act on the
remedial order But this seems hardly
likely to happen, Judging from the reports
of the feeling among the majority of the
people of Manitoba.
The British North American act is in
many ways an elastic affair, and it will be
difficult matter for the Dominion gov
ernment to decide that it has or that it
has not the right to interfere in the edu-
cational legislation of the provinces. If 1t
should decide to interfere 1t is probable
that such interference would make the POI
litical divisions of Canada coincide with
It's great religious division, or would lead
to series Of appeals to the courts, the end
of which can scarcely be foreseen.
So far the action of the government has
resulted in stirring up feeling in Onta-
rio very hostile to itself, while in Quebec
1t has had a directly contrary effect, None
of the party organs in Ontario dare to
commit themselves to any definite state
ment as TO the course to be pursued to-
wards Manitoba, but the independent
journals, without exception, cry out
against any interference by the Dominion
In the school affairs of the province. Their
cry Is Hands off, " and there is no doubt
as to that being the sentiment of tho
great ma orty of Protestant Ontario.

A VICTIM or SUPERSTITION.
Extraordinary Gaze NOW on Trial in an
Irish Court Of Justice.

WATERFORD, March 27.-A most extra
ordinary case of murder, arising from
superstition, was inquired into yesterday
by the special court OF Clonmel, twenty
five miles from here. Ten persons were
arraigned before tho court charged with
numbering a woman named Cleary be-
cause they supposed her to be witch. The
prisoners included the murdered womans
husband and father The evidence showed
that Mrs. Cleary was suffering from nerv-
business and bronchitis, and her husband,
believing her to be bewitched, obtained a
connection from herbalist of the neigh
borhood. Then, while the other prisoners
held the unfortunate woman in bed, her
husband forced the obnoxious connection
Of herbs down her throat.
After this tho suffering woman was held
over fire and dreadfulIy burned, until
she declared in the name of God that she
was not Cleary's wife, This torture was
repeated on the following day, but the
woman refused to conform to her hus-
bands requests, whereupon he knocked
her down, stripped off her clothing, poured
paraffin over her body, then lighted it and
the woman burned to death in the pres
ence Of six male and two female relatives.
Cieary declared that hewas not burning
his wife, but that he was burning witch
and that she would disappear up the chin
ncy
When the woman was dead her hus-
band collected her charred remains in n
sheet and buried them in dyke beneath
the mud, where they were found week
later. The prisoners, who were rcmanded,
narrowly escaped lynching at the hands
of the excited crowd in and about the
court room, and had to be removed to jail
under the escort of strong force of con-
stabulnrY.

CANADA IN A FERMENL,
The Manitoba Provincial Legisla-
ture Postpones Action
ON THE SEPARATE SCHOOL ORDER.

Meantime Protestant Ontario UphoIds the
Manitoba Argument, While Catholic Que
bee Insists Upon Obedience to Superior
Authority.
WINNIPEG. Man, March 27.-The first
step in the renewed fight over parochial
schools in Manitoba began In the legisla-
ture yesterday afternoon, when the first
full message was presented from the Do
minion government at Ottawa, ordering
the Manitoba legislature to give the Cath
olics their rights as they existed before the
abolition of the parochial schools in 1890.
Mr.. Martin, a French Catholic member
Of the legislature, urged that the govern.
: ment should take immediate action, but
Premier Greenway protested, saying that
the message should be printed in order
that all members might know what thoy
were dealing with. Here the matter rested
and the discussion will now probably not
take place till tomorrow. Meanwhile the
situation grows more complicated. The
Catholics say that Greenway and his fol-
lowers, IL they reject the order from OF
tawa, are rejecting document ordered
and signed by her majesty the queen, and
such act would be equivalent TO open re-
bellion. They say they cannot conceive
now the Dominlon government could 10
otherwise than make the formal request
they have made, as they are bound, so far
far ms lay in power to take immediate ac-
tion upon the decision of the highest court
and see that the grievances of her lnajosty's
subjects of the Roman Catholic faith in
Manitoba receive redress at the earliest
possible moment.
The Greenway government contends, on
the other hand, that the present school
law is satisfactory to many Catholics If it
were not for the agitation by the priests Of
the church. They say that II Manitoba Is
coerccd into rccreating dual system dual
ism, both in language and education, will
be extended to tho territories as we'll and
thus would be perpetuated in the west the
evils which have caused dissatisfaction
and stagnation in the province. Among
the members on the government side it
seems to be a matter of opiuion TINT the
remedial order will be disposed of during
the coming week. Premier Greenway de-
mics that he will compromise the matter
by introducing bill making the schools
entirely secular.

VIOLATED QUARANTINE LAWS.


Secretary CarIisic Took His Son from the

NEW YORK, March e7.-Collector Kill
breth has received from Surveyor John @.
Mcguire report Of the alleged violation
of the quarantine law committed by Sec
Rotary of the Treasury John G. Carlisle,
the highest official OF the customs depart
ment. The collector, however, positively
refused to make public the contents of
the document
The trouble has arisen on account Of the
secretary's anxiety to care for his son,
William Is. Carlisle. The young man ar
rived in port last Saturday on the Ameri-
can line steamship Paris, after month";
tour abroad. The secretary went down to
Quarantine in the revenue cutter and took
his son Off the steamer before the passen-
gers had been inspected by Health Officer
Doty This constitutes a violation of the
state laws, hence the trouble.
