The Daily Telegraph - Thursday, May 23, 1895

London, May 22.

It was not Lord Alfred Douglas but Lord Douglas of Hawick with whom the quarrel occurred. The latter accused his father of sending insulting letters to Lady Douglas, because he was one of Wilde's sureties. The Marquis of Queensberry shouted that he was anxious to renew the fight for £10 000, and addressing the crowd said he disowned his son. Both were bound over in sureties of £500 each to keep the peace.

Wilde's trial is now proceeding.
