Quebec Morning Chronicle - Tuesday, May 7, 1895
London, May 6 — Oscar Wilde succeeded in finding the sureties required of him by Justice Pollock and will be released. The names of his bondsmen are not made known. Wilde, it is announced, will be released from custody tomorrow. He will probably leave London at once for foreign parts. The statement of Mr.C.F. Gill, counsel for the prosecution, that Wilde would undoubtedly be tried at the next session, was made without the authority of the public prosecutor. It has not yet been decided whether the Government will try him or not. They are willing that he should again be arraigned, but it is understood the heads of the Church and many other eminent persons urge upon the Government the fact that much harm would be done to the public morals by the adoption of such a course, referring to the reprinting of all of the pernicious details of the case. In the meantime the police are ordered to maintain a close watch upon Wilde’s movements and not to prevent him from going to the Continent if he wishes to go there.
