Oscar Wilde in Durance Vile as Result
of Libel Suit.
LONDON, April Oscar Wilde was
arrested by detectives of Scotland
Yard this afternoon, on charges
growing out of his own evidence
given in the libel suit against Lord
Queensberry, which was decided
against the dramatist today. The
Scotland Yard authorities issued
descrip' ions of Wilde and spread
them over the city and he was
captured before he could get out of
the country, as was evidently his in
tention. He was taken to Scotland
Yard locked up and not admitted to
bail.
The Old Bailey Courtroom was
crowded almost to sutfocation this
morning when Mr.. Carson resumed
his speech in behalf of the Marquis
of Queensberry. The jury rendered
verdict of not guilty In an inter-
view the Marquis of Queensberry
said: 81 have sent this message to
Wilde: IF you leave the country,
all the better for the country. but if
you take my son with you, I will fol-
low you wherever you go and shoot
