ducks, quail hunters may use up their

federal regulations refer only to MI

Sergeant Hughe. sof the Indiana Har-
Dor station this morning declared that
the police know the identity of the man
who was with John Popa the night he
shot and killed John Mackries at the
corner of Parish and Michigan avenues.
Officer John Lazaar. Roumanian of

lowing clews which may lead to tho
arrest of the companion of the man who
did the shooting. While he is not the

that once he is safe behind the bars.
they will be able to locate Popa, the
murderer In the meantime they have
the other man so closely Swallowed that
they have every confidence in encorn-
passing his arrest within day or two
believing it is only a question OF time
and patience before this can be accom-
pished. 1t Is intimated that his hiding
place is not very far from Indiana Ha--
Dor, If indeed 1T is not within the city
but the police are Withholding definite
information as to his identity and his
place of concealment. lest the publica-

The trouble was the result of a re-
| mark passed to Mackries by the man
believed to have been Popa, as he and
a companion passed Mackries on the
| sidewalk. Mackries had a violin and
the man who afterwards shot him told
| him to put the instrument In the case
