received Intelligence that Tweed had d[aen-

uction, Tweed embarked on the safltng-vcssel
Carmen, hound to Vigo. Capt.-Gcn. Jovcllar
tclcgraphcd to the AludrId Government, which,
fearing tlsat thc Carmen might 20 into some
other port, requested the authorities at ali
Spanish ports to examine persons TIL board Of all
vessels usMcd Carmen. Tl,cre are IL Spanish
vessels Of that name. A portrait of Tweed be-
lug Indispensable, tho epanssh authorities OH

Special D|spatch to The Tribune.
WASHINGTON, u. C., Sept. 11.-Therc is now
MI doubt that Tweed has BEEN arrested In Spain
ut t1le request Of our Government. TIE Dcmo-
Gratis have begun to clnin credit for Gov.
TiItlen for the capture Of Tweed on tho grouu,l
that thc State Department could not hayc taken
an o1!c!ni step III the proceedings which hare
led To his urrcst unless Tiltlcn, rs Govcsnur,
had made formal request that thu Depart
mcnt should itsc It's good Offices with foreign
Powers to that end. The .fIldcnites Mill be
prudent mt to build too great hopes
upon any such hypothesis. The
State Department officials, uctfng under
Instructions from Secretary Fish, 10 tho effect
that The whole Is one In posse, antl must be
kept state secret until It Is all accomplished
tact, decline 10 gfya any Information whatever
upon the subject. There IL reason to believe,
however, that tho part taken l,y Ttlden III this
affair IL very insignificant a,ml formal, and only
such as was demanded by his official position.
liz did, no doubt, Is Governor of New York,
request the State Department to secure Twccd's
return, Il possible, xfrom foreign countries.
This request. It Is Understood, was made more
nt the INSTANCE Of the Municipality
Of New York City than onnccount Of the Esecli-
Tive Of the State himself. Frum tho only in
formation 0l,ta1nalle here It can be confidently
predicted that Gov Tild:n, neither at that time
mentioned any particular country to which
Tweed l,ed gone, nor has lie In any way render
cd the Department any service In its protected
and dllfgent search for tile Ercut criminal.
Neither has lie manifested any interest whatever
In tie progress Of that search. Gov. Ttldcn's
application, II j. understood, MAS tho nlescst
fUrtnulity 1t furnished the legal basts upon
which, under tho Constitution, requests
t1pou foreign Governments could be
ntude. The Btate Department Immediately sent
Powers, a. vel! to those with which VIC hare 10
treaties as 10 those with which nc have. Tho
entire credit for the subsequent work, so suc-
cess!ul thus far, Is due to the Consular and
other officials Of tho State Department, who
hive not seasca yiEilantly to pursue every trail
through all these months.
