An appearance on behalf of Wilde will be made at Bow Street to-morrow. Both gentlemen who have offered themselves as bail have been notified to be in attendance, and should the presiding magistrate be satisfied with the nature of their bail he will sign an order for Wilde's release, and it is anticipated the prisoner will be liberated the same afternoon.

THE MARQUIS VISITS HOLLOWAY.
The Press Association understands that the Marquis of Queensberry paid an unexpected visit to Holloway Gaol on Saturday evening, where the accused men, Oscar Wilde and Taylor, are awaiting the decision of the Treasury regarding a new trial. The object of the visit of the marquis to Holloway has not transpired, but he had an interview with the chief prison officials. Oscar Wilde and Taylor apparently knew nothing of the visit of his lordship, who did not remain at the prison long. Up to the official hour of closing at the prison Wilde had not been bailed.
