American Fugitives Discharged From Custody at Quebec. JUDGE UPHOLDS DEFENDANTS. Discrepancy In Charges and Absence of Dates In the Warrant Held to Be Fatal Officials & \ Washlgton Disap pointed Did Not Look for Release , Quebec , Aug. 14. Colonel John T. Gaynor and Captain Benjamin D Greene scored a decisive victory In their fight against extradition to the United States , where they ore wanted in connection with alleged frauds in harbor work for the federal govern ment involving millions of dollars.

A largo number of the prisoners' friends were In the court room and they heartily congratulated the two men upon their release. It Is under stood that the United States govern ment will Institute new proceedings fdr extradition. Judge Caron in his opinion said there was a distinct discrepancy be tween the charges upon which the various true bills against the prison ers were obtained In the United States and between them and that made in the application for their extradition. This , as well as the absence of "dates in the warrant he held to be distinct ly fatal to the latter , and he therefore upheld the prisoners' claims and theli objoctlgns to the warrants , maintained the writ of habeas corpus and ordered the release of the prisoners. According to the judgment , the .ac cused are perfectly free to travel In any part of the British empire. The action of Judge Caron in dis charging the prisoners from custody and the grounds stated for his conclu slons in the judgment rendered came as a surprise to the' counsel for 'the United States.
