The San Francisco Examiner - Wednesday, April 24, 1895

The Grand Jury this morning returned to the Central Criminal Court in the Old Bailey a true bill against Oscar Wilde and Alfred Taylor. The prosecuting witnesses in the case are being lodged in a house in Croydon street to prevent them from being mobbed.

It was reported this morning that Wilde would plead guilty to one offense, but this his solicitors deny. They declare that his case will be fought to the end.

The Sun says it is expected that Wilde’s counsel will apply for an adjournment for one month and ask that Wilde be admitted to bail in the meantime. Wilde’s valuable collection of prints, Moorish pottery and bric-a-brac will be sold at auction to-morrow. The articles to be sold include Carlyle's writing-table.
