She emerged from the Ritz Hotel
at 10 o'clock this morning, entered
a taxi and was heard to instruct the
driver to proceed to the Boulevard
Vineau in Neuilly.
This is the street on which Carol s
villa is situated, but she did not call
there, meeting him instead in pr1-

on the edge Of the Bois de Bonlogne.
The chauffeur of the Queens taxi
eluded the machines hastily COM

and made a clean getaway. The
Queen and Carol were not discovered
by the reporters until 11:30, when
their conference terminated.

Marie has decided to leave for
Bucharest on the Simplon express at
$50 O'Clock tonight instead of wait

first intended.
The servants attached to her suite
were busy at the hotel this morning
caring for the luggage arriving from

States. She is of the opinion that the
United States will inevitably play a
greater part in the worlds affairs,
and that she is in a position now
more faithfully to interpret American
hopes, ambitions and ideals to the
continent of Europe.
During the trip from Cherbourg to
Paris the official spokesman of the
royal party expressed the belief that
the good impression of the Queen s
visit to America and the increased
knowledge there Of Ruma Mas re.
sources would enable Rumania to
contract a loan. possibly a half bill

plain that Queen Marie herself had
not directly or indirectly hroached
the subject of a loan to financiers she
met in the United States.
