Marlon Ep win, the special assistant to tho at torney general in the prosecution ol Captain Oberlln M. Carter and Messrs. Giueue and Gaynor, in the cases In volving alleged big frauds in govern ment engineering work at Savannah has just returned from New York wher- ho went in connection with civil suits to recover a half million dollar! of assets to the government. Regard ing the Greene and Gaynor extradition matter Mr. Erwin said: "Judge Caron's decision reversing Judge Andrews' judgment and dis charging the prisoners from cuRtody before we could have our hearing be fore the extradition commissioner, Is by no means regarded by the depart meut of justice as ending our efforts to accomplish the extradition. It It true that we have no appeal under the laws of Canada from the derision ol Judge Caron discharging the prisoners. It makes no difference how many judges may decide that our proceed ings were well founded, as Judge An drews decided In this case. If the prisoners can find one Judge who will decide otherwise and free them, there is no appeal from such a Judgment, however crronecti3. "This is not true under the United Slates laws. In such a case, the for eign government has right to appeal to the Knlted States supreme court. The L'nlted States employed In Can ada the ablest counsel that could be obtained there and the latter have no doubt of the correctness of Judge Andrews' decision holding that extra ditable offences were charged. "Whllo we have no appeal, I will not say we are entirely without rem edy. Whatever remedies exist will be applied In the proper way at the prop er time. Meantime the defendants are practically compelled to keep close to their city of refuge. It Is sufll clent to say the extradition proceed ings are not enderi " ALL-AMERICAN TEAM.
