The Morning Post - Monday, May 6, 1895
Baron Pollock, sitting in Chambers, on Saturday, decided to allow Oscar Wilde out on bail, himself in £2,500, and two sureties of £1,250 each. The Judge, in the interval since the previous afternoon, had read through the whole of the depositions, and consulted with Mr. Justice Charles. Mr. Mathews intimated that there might be some difficulty in obtaining two sureties for the amount fixed, though one surety could be obtained for a much larger sum.— Baron Pollock said that in that event a further application should be made to him this morning. Should the bail be forthcoming they will have to be tendered at Bow-street in order that the police may make the necessary inquiries.—Detective Brockwell was present at Chambers on Saturday morning; and Mr. Humphreys informed him who the sureties in all probability would be.
