Oscar Wilde publishes a letter stating that he abandoned the case in order to avoid placing Lord Alfred Douglas in the witness box after the warrant had been issued for Wilde's arrest. The police detained three essential witnesses. Lord Douglas and two men remained in conference with Wilde at the Viaduct Hotel, Holborn, for several hours after the trial, and lunched together in a private room. Subsequently they drove to a bank where Wilde withdrew a large sum of money. He was then lost sight of until arrested in the evening at an hotel in Sloane street. Lord Douglas was much distressed when he found he was unable to bail him out. After the trial the Marquis of Salisbury sent Wilde a message stating that he would shoot him if he took his son abroad. Taylor has also been arrested and will be charged in conjunction with Wilde. The latter's name has been withdrawn from the playbills of London and American theatres.

It was at the instance of the Treasury that the warrant was issued for Wilde's arrest. Although his name has been removed from playbills in Britain and America, his pieces will continue to be played for the present. In a letter to the press Wilde says he is content to bear ignominy in order to avoid compelling Lord Alfred Douglas to depose against his father in the case just closed, although the son was eagerly willing to do so. Wilde has been remanded until Thursday, bail being refused.
