THE OSCAR WILDE CASE.
AMOUNT OF BAIL FIXED.
LONDON, SATURDAY.
Mr. Baron Pollock, sitting in Chambers, decided to grant bail to the prisoner Oscar
Wilde. His Lordship asked
for two sureties in £1,250 each, in addition to personal bail of £2,500; but said
that, should there be any difficulty in finding these sureties, a
further application might be made on Monday morning, when, provided the inquiries
which would be instituted by the police were satisfactory, he would be
disposed to alter his conditions. No application whatever has yet been made on behalf
of Taylor. The Exchange Company learns from inquiry at Holloway Jail
this afternoon that Oscar Wilde is still detained there, and that his liberation is
not likely to take place before Tuesday. It is generally believed that
the sureties offered will be approved of, but the inquiry officials will not report
before Monday next.
On Saturday evening Mr. Oscar Wilde had not been released on bail. On Saturday morning the Marquis of Queensberry visited Holloway Jail and had an interview with the officials of the prison, which is believed to have had reference to his son, Lord Alfred Douglas.
