DuXbury, Mass, Aug. 13.-The decision
of Judge Caron, OF Quebec, releasing
Benjamin d. Greene and John F. Gay
nor, was shown to Solicitor General Rich
ards at his summer home here today. He
expressed no surprise at the action which
had been taken and said that he would
not at this time enter into discussion of
the case or express an opinion as to the
attitude of Judge Caron.
He would say that if there were any
technical defects in the warrant this
could be easily corrected by the United
States Government, and having done this,
the Government would renew its efforts
to get the two men back into this coun-
try for trial.
He had no reason to believe that un-
der the treaty Greene and Gaynor could
rot be nNtraditcd.
