Holmes only agreed to the publication of
‘The Hound Of The Baskervilles’ between
1901-1902 on the condition that it was made clear that it was a case which had occurred prior to ‘The Great Hiatus’ in the late 1880s,
Although some Sherlockians these days think THOTB might have actually occurred after
‘The Great Hiatus’ in say 1899,
Sherlockian chronology and dating the cases is a pretty tricky thing though
as any Sherlockian knows.

It’s thought the main reason that Holmes had forbidden any publication of his post
‘Great Hiatus’ cases from 1894-1903 is because he didn’t want the criminal underworld to know of his return, But with Moriarty’s death and Moran’s capture it really wasn’t something that one could keep a secret, A far more likely explanation is that Holmes really hated Watson’s published accounts of his cases and the phenomenon Watson and Conan Doyle had created.

Not a problem, I believe that most Sherlockians feel Holmes retired
in September 1903, However some feel it was in 1904, One reason alot of them pick 1903 is because Holmes wanted to keep his return from the dead somewhat unknown to the general public and it’s thought he had forbidden any publication in The Strand Magazine of his post ‘Great Hiatus’ cases until after his retirement, The first of these ‘The Adventure Of The Empty House’ wasn’t published until Oct 1903.
