Shelter Island, l.. l., May 6.-On
raft Jus. few steps from Irving
Clark's tavern, where Byron Cameron
and his men are stopping, are the car
casscs of four deer. These animals
cheated the state. Somewhere in
Nicholas woods is a frightened buck
who kicked his way out Of his box
stall this afternoon and also cheated
the state. Seven more deer, penned IN
small. wooden crates, are waiting Tor
shipment to the Adirondacks. In all,
the game wardens who have planned
and plotted for a week can account for
only a dozen Of the animals who have
been annoying the farmers OF TINS
island for years.
Shelter Island represents a question
mark and the question has been an
swered. The island is too big to be
combed with even 500 men; the island
has too much shore front and neigh
boring mainland to offer any great
difficulty to animals that are crack

ago that the plan was impractlcabie
but worth trying. The wardens think
he WAS right.
