Police Against
Blank Wall in
Taylor Murder
Search for Former Secretary
of Slain Movie Director
Continues-Will Ques-
ton Peavey Again.

Los Angeles, Feb. S.-Officers
trying TO solve the mystery OF the
murder OF William Desmond Tay-
lor. motion picture director, here last
"Wednesday night. reported tonight
that they had made but slight prog
rcss in the last "a hours. The blank
wall, which, they said, unidentified
influences appeared to have thrown
up between them and the true facts,
remained unpierced.
The police continued to concen-
trate their efforts upon the search
for Edward F. Sands, former secrc-
tary and butler for Taylor, missing
since Taylor made a charge of
grand larceny against him last Au-
gust. Capt David L. Adams, head
OF the detective bureau, reiterated
that there is no one else we want,
and have discovered nothing that
would indicate a motive ssor the
crime except that of averting prose-
cution on the grand larceny charge"
Tip From Arizona.
Late today the detective bureau
received from the sheriff at Tucson,
Ariz., to the effect that man re-
sembling Sands was seen at Lowell,
Arlz,, February 4, three days after
Taylor was slain Walter Peterson
OF Tucson, according to this mes
sage, saw the man. Peterson said
the man he talked with professed
to be deserter from the British
navy, had been, in Los Angeles and
was familiar With the Hollywood
section. The man told Peterson he
was on his way to the Imperial Val
ley, California, without explaining
what he was doing in Arizona.
The shcriff's investigators said
they expected TO examine Henry
Peavey, houseman for Taylor, in an
effort to obtain corroboration or de-
NAL OF certain statements made to
them by other parties.
Peavey passed the day assisting
officers in checking over Taylor's
effects at the apartment where the
Staying occurred. The police took
charge of certain articles, as possibly
having some bearing on the killing,
but did not state what they were.
No More Letters Found.
After the search Captain Adams
said there had been no letters dis
covered by the police and that he.|
never had seen any letters addressed
to Taylor with the exception of a
half dozen from the directors for
mer wife and daughter. These, he
declared, had absolutely no bearing
upon the case.
Mabel Normand and Mary Miles |
Minter, motion picture actresses, |
friends of the slain director, who
have been questioned about the case,
remained in seclusion today. Both |
police and sheriff's investigators said |
no further information had been
sought from them.
