Captain W. D. Greene,-were amuggled out of Quebec today by an American detective named Bennett and Ave assistants. Bennett ha been In town since the arrival of Gaynor ad Green, and haa kept a keen watch on their movements. Thie morning he was joined by Ave others who carried out a seemingly well laid plan to cap ture the accused. About U o'clock Greene was coming out of the house when three men ap proached him and one of them produc ing a document, ahowed it to Greene. The latter stood dumfoumled and ask ed permission to apeak to some one, but In reply was hurrfed into a cab and rushed to Lowertown. where he was placed on the Montreal tug Spray. In the meantime Bennett and the two other deceetives went to the Chateau Frontenac where Gaynor and Grerne were staying.. Bennett remained out side while his comrades went Into the lobby. At the time. Colonel Gtaynor waa talking to the clerk.' Both men went up Immediately and Invited him outside whore Bennett was awaiting- them in a cab. The detectives and Gaynor atarted for Lowertown and In a short time Gaynor was In company with Greene on the tug, with the de tectives, on the way to Montreal or some other place further up the river where they can land. It is probably their intention to land on the south shore and place the prls onera on the Grand Trunk train wWch left here at 12:05 for the west. THE PLOTT. WASHINGTON. May li-The kid napping and the subsequent a rest of Gaynor and Greene at Quebec, was the result of a carefully laid plan of Chief Wilkle, of the secret service. The capture waa planned to come off yes terday and the department had been looking for news of their arrest all day. Even now the secret service offi cials will not admit the receipt of any advices, but It Is known that the whole arrangements were perfectly carried out. ISSUED FROM MONTREAL. The arrests were made on warrant issued In Montreal, Chief Wilkle's men assisting the Canadian officers to make the arrests. The men were hurried on board the tug which had been kept In waiting at the wharf. Ten minutes aftr Gay nor and Greene were safely on board. the boat atarted toward Montreal. Th officer moved so quickly that neither of the prisoners were given an op portunity to consult counsel.

May lS.-Th extra dition treaty between Great Britain and the United State waa carefully studied and the conclusion reached that there existed grounds for the ex tradition of the menr Mr. Erwln, who figured prominently In the case at Sa vannah, waa assigned the duty of pro ceeding to Canada and asssltlng th government In bringing the fugitives back to tha United Statea . Ei-wIn feared that If the men were arrested In Quebec, resort would be had to habea corpus proceeding and they would be released. For this rea son the determination wa' reached to have warrants wom out In Montreal and erved on Gaynor and Green In Quebec, thus bringing the question of holding them for extradition before tha Montreal authorities.'- Confident belief of the official berel that the gov ernment will be able to secure tx tra dition of tho men, in which f they will be taken to Savannah for triet. MONTREAL, May 13. The pursuit of the tug Spray by Quebec authoritle ia probably due to a misunderstanding of the situation.
