Wolves and Coyotes Leave No Tracks,
So Chicago Hunters Turn Back to City

wolves. BAH" said Leroy Davidson,
former chief of the Cook County high
way police. Last Summer there
was camp of Campfire Girls in the
forest preserve. They had three dogs
the dogs were a mixture of Airedale
and police dog. When the girls
broke camp they left the dogs behind.
I also had an Airedale. He ran away
and Joined the other three. These
four dogs are the pack of wolves
that are causing all the commotion."
Davidson said that undoubtedly the
dogs had become wild through hun.
ger. that they might appear like
wolves to residents and that they
might attack calves and pigs. as sew
eral had reported the wolves had done.
The hunting party included County
Forester Ransom Kennicott, Assistant
Forester Peter NJ. Hoffman, Arthur
Korsgard, forest preserve nursery
man, and an experienced North

WEARY TAG QUEST
Long Line of Car Owners
Besieges District Building
for Second Day.

Automobile owners were forced to
stand in line about two hours today
i'm order to obtain their lorig-awaited
license plates at the District Building.
While the congestion today was not
so bad as that of yesterday, when the
line of applicants extended into the
street, the rush was sufficient to NIL
the ground floor corridors with a seem
ingly endless line of weary but good
natured men and women.
One line today formed near the
doorway In the East end of the build
ing. extended down the east corridor
along one side of the wall and back
again along the other side, and thence
through the main front corridor TO
the long row of tables midwayof the
building.
Many Start Over Again.
There were those who thought
their quest was over when, after oO
minutes of alleged progress. they
reached this first row of tables. They
were doomed to disappointment, how
ever. for these were where the APP
plication cards were to be filled out.
Here, also, Is where many persons fell
by the wayside, having forgotten
such important items as the number
Of their engines, the make OF head
light lens. etc.
The typists insisted on knowing the
name and address of the applicant.
the make. style Of body. year and
engine number of the car. and the
kind of lenses. Those who could not
give any or all of these data had to
fall out and get them and then begin
the trek all over again.
A new line, composed of those with
the properly executed blanks In hand,
formed at this point and led far
around the Fourteenth street cOrri-
doris to the water registrars Office in
the rear OF the building. The last half
of the journey seemed even slower
than the first, but every one wealth
cred the trip I'm good humor and with
out encountering any untoward incl
dents.
Sight Goal at Last.
The first hour and three-fourths
landed the applicants at the rear Of
the Fourteenth street corridor, whence
they took new tack and started the
final stretch.
The clatter of rubber stamps then
could plainly be heard. The noise
served to revive the tagging spirits of
the tlFeu ones. ana dIteT IL seemingly
Understandable suspense the ultimate
window finally was reached.
In the line today were noted bus
boys and bus magnates, elevator oper-
ators and opponents of other forms of
uplift. doctors with whiskers and patti
ents without. clerks, lawyers, chauf-
feurs and even a mother with an i'm
patient 3-year-old at her skirts.
All were bent on a common mission
and every one took his medicine with
the same spirit of optimism.

CAROL IS SILENT
ON THRONE REPORTS
ErStwhiIe Rumanian Crown
Prince Not Going Home
"JuSt Yet" He Says.

PARIS, January 24.-Rumania's
erstwhile Crown Prince carol. whose
exact status has been somewhat
hazy ever since he renounced his
royal prerogatives more than a year
ago. tx willing TO talk about almost
everything but is silent on what Is
OF most interest TO his countrymen
and others.
Cornered after sitting through a
conference on "MOnarchical Institu-
lions on the Balkans" at the Sor-
Donne, he remarked that ne was not
going home Just yet" but refused
TO discuss reports that his father,
King Ferdinand. was soon to abdi-
cate and that he was to ascend the
throne.
Leave Politics Alone"
Carol admonished correspondents
to leave politics alone" or he would
run away. This was after he had
been asked IL he would return to
Rumania. Then. when questioned
about the possibility of a reconcilia-
ton In Italy with his royal wife,
Princess Helen, from whom he has
been separated for months. he re-
piled evasively-somethin about
the Italian climate In Winter.
Inc prince, VINO as Coral Carat-
man" has been living In the Paris
suburb of Neuilly, confirmed that he
had spent the holiday season on the
Riviera, having gone there two days
before Christmas and returned several
days ago. In faultless English he
touched on many topics ranging
from foot ball to literature, but as
for Balkan and European politics
he would say nothing.
Hears Professor, Former Tutor.
At the conference which Carol at
tended the chief speaker was Prof.
Nicolas Jorga of the University of
Bucharest. who was tutor to the
prince. Carol heard him say that the
life of laws is precarious and the
powerlessness of kings is increasing"
Prof. Jorga is looked upon as a
close friend of Carols and IL has
often been remarked that If Carol
does assume regal powers. Nicolas
Jorga will have an influential posi-
ton in the government.

such an extent that 1t was now i'm
