LONDON, May 6.– Oscar Wilde has succeeded in finding the sureties required of him by Justice Pollock. The names of his bondsmen are not
made known. Investigations having confirmed the responsibility of Wilde’s sureties, Justice Pollock has signed an order for his release.
Wilde, it is announced, will be released from custody to-morrow. He will probably leave London at once for the seaside. The statement of
C. F. Gill, counsel for the prosecution, that the Wilde case will undoubtedly be retried at the next session, was made without the authority of the public
prosecutor. It has not yet been decided whether the government will take steps to have Wilde again placed on trial. They are willing that he should be
again arraigned, but it is understood that the heads of the church and many other eminent persons urge upon the government the fact that much harm would
be done to the morals by the adoption of such a course, referring to the reprinting of all of the pernicious details of the case. In the meantime the
police are ordered not to maintain too close a watch upon Wilde’s movements and not prevent his going to the continent if he wishes to go there.
