London, April 13. [...]The Oscar Wilde case has led to the arrest of two men who were implicated in the Cleveland street scandal. In
the rooms of one of them, J.C. Goodchild, the police found a diary recording the foulest of acts, but nothing was discovered relating to Wilde. The
revelations, however, show that the ramifications of a peculiar type of vice are almost past belief. It has transpired that Wilde’s friend Taylor is the
son of a London merchant. He inherited an income of £3,500 a year, but dissipated his fortune in profligacy.

inherited an income of £3,500 a year, but dissipated his fortune in profligacy. Mr. Robert Sherard, an Anglo-American journalist, has instituted legal
proceedings against the British Consul in Paris, on the ground that the Consult publicly alleged that he (Sherard) was an associate of Wilde, and guilty
of crimes similar to those with which Wilde is charged.
