Galignani Messenger - Sunday, May 5, 1895
London, May 4.
Mr. Baron Pollock, sitting in chambers this morning, decided to allow Oscar Wilde out on bail in personal recognisances of £2,500, and two sureties of £1,250 each. The judge has read through the whole of the depositions, and has 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.
Mr. Baron Pollock said that in that event a further application should be made to him on Monday 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 this morning, and Mr. Humphreys informed the officers who the sureties in all probability would be.
No application has yet been made on behalf of Taylor.
A press agency learns from inquiry at Holloway Gaol 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.
