At the London Bankruptcy Court yesterday accounts were issued under the failure of Oscar Wilde, now of her Majesty's Prison, Wandsworth.
The liabilities expected to rank are £3,591, and no available assets are shown. The debtor states his income, which he estimates at £2,000 a year, had
been derived chiefly from royalties received on plays and literary works written by him. He attributes his insolvency to the failure of legal proceedings
taken by him against the Marquis of Queensberry, and his conviction in the recent trial of Regina v Wilde. The Official Receiver observed, however, that
it would appear the debtor had been insolvent for at least two years, and that his household and personal expenditure has been considerably in excess of
his income.
