CONTINUED FROM PAGE oNE) who told of this to him, could not be found today. Upon this woman rests the story of Hightower.
 Other angles which prompted Chief of Police O'Brien here, and Constable Landini, of Colma, to directly accuse Hightower of the staying include the following: Hightower admitted that he was at Colma about the time the priest disappeared; he evidenced a strange familiarity with the site of the sand grave; he said he was out of work and in need of money.
 Hightower's Story
 Hightower's story was that he chanced upon Dolly Mason on the streets here Saturday. He had known her before, he said. She told him then, he said, that a foreigner, boot logger. had revealed large amount of money to her and a pistol, with which he said he killed a man. He said the body of a slain man was in one of the caves off the sand cliffs near Salada Beach, twenty miles south of here. It was guarded by a man kneeling and frying flapjacks, he told her, High tower said.
 This recalled, said Hightower, an advertising sign at this lonely beach spot, rarely frequented, and on Sun day he drove down, according to his story, and found the body He brought piece of bloody burlap and some cartridge shells back to his room, he said.
 Three nights later, last night, he went to the residence of Archbishop Edward J. Hanna, head of the Catho- lie diocese here, to tell of his find The archbishop was busy, and he told of it to waiting newspaper reporter who arranged with the chief of police for the party which found the body.
