CAN co WHERE THEY PLEASE.
Messrs. McMaster and Dandurand, coun-
sci for the United States government. and
Mr.. Gervaise, counsel for Messrs. Gaynor
and Greene. returned TO Montreal tonight.
According 10 the judgment. the accused
are perfectly free to travel in any part Of
the British empire.
The action OF Judge Caron in discharg-
ing the prisoners from custody and the
grounds stated for his conclusions in the
judgment rendered came as a surprise 10
the counsel for the United States. They
say there were but two motions penang
before the Judge: First. the motion Of the
United States to quash the writ OF habeas
corpus and 10 remand the prisoners 10 tne
custody OF the jailer OF Montreal; second
the motion OF the prisoners counsel 10 nave
the extradition hearing proceed on its
merits before Judge Caron.
The first OF the motions alone was ar
gued, with the understanding that counsel
were to have the opportunity OF being
heard on any other question when tnat
was determined. The point made in the
opinion that the warrant OF arrest or re-
mand did not set out the date when the
offense was committed. they say. was i'm
material. The judge had before MIN the
complaint which charges specifically the
date or the OHenSe. Inc warrant anu re-
mand were in the exact form prescribed for
use in the criminal code and were held suf-
ficient by Justice Andrews The point
made in the opinion that the warrant does
rot set out that the acts charged consu-
tute a crime under the laws of both coun-
tries they say. is without force. as ii is
specifically set out in the complaint that
the acts charged were contrary TO the
laws of the United States, and. as held re-
peatedly in the Canadian decisions, the
courts here will take judicial notice that
the acts charged constitute a breach OF the
Canada statutes if committed in Canada
The point made in the opinion that the
complaint charges only conspiracy, they
say, overlooks the most important allega-
tions contained in it, The complaint. after
setting out the acts of embezzlement and

Cause of Cholera Outbreak.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 13-The reason
given by army officers who have arrived on
the transport Lawton for the renewed out
break of cholera in the Philippines is the
premature withdrawal of precautionary
measures by the American officials at Ma
Mia, under the impression that the disease
had been fought to a standstill. The
scourge had only been scotched, however,
and with the relaxation OF the controlling
grip IL resumed its work OF devastation
with renewed vigor. 1T will not be got rid
of in the Philippines" said Assistant Sur
geon Rhodes, until the heavy rains come.
That will be in October. In the meanwhile
