London, May 7.- Lord Douglas of Hawick, eldest surviving son of the Marquis of Queensberry, and the Rev. Stewart D. Headlam, well known as a staunch supporter ion stage dancing, appeared in the Bow street police court this morning and became sureties for Oscar Wilde.
Wilde was then released, after furnishing a personal bond for $12,500 and two sureties of $6,250 each. Rev. Stewart Headlam is a graduate of Cambridge University and resides at Hyde Park Gate. He was interviewed shortly after it became known he had become one of Wilde’s bondsmen, and said: "I became surety for Wilde on public grounds. I felt the public mind was prejudiced before the case began, and I am anxious to give him any help possible in order to enable him to stand trial in good health and spirits."
At 2.30 p.m. Wilde was driven in a cab from Holloway gaol to Bow street police court, where his bail was formally accepted. Then, in company with Lord Alfred Douglas, of Hawick, Wilde left the court.
