ALL CLUES

CASE FAIL
Officers Concentrate
Efforts On Task of
Locating Sands, Mis-
sing Butler

Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. 27.-
Practically all other leads to So
luton of the murder Of William
Desmond Taylor, film director
here, have failed, the police de-
partment declared today as they
prepared to concentrate further
efforts upon a search for Edward
F. Sands, Taylor's missing former
butler-secretary.
1t was planned to assemble new
data on Sands and to compile a
special bulletin for distribution
to practically every peace officer
in the United States. The police
frankly state they believe Sands
can supply a clew to Taylors
murder.
Police Sergeant Jack Stelreide
was said to have gone to San
Francisco to search for woman
to whom kilograms bearing on the
Taylor case were reported to have
been sent from here the night OF
the murder and the next day.

OBITUARY..

Alkaline McKeethan was born
Sept, Is, 1885, died May 2, 1922,
at the home of her daughter in Hut
chins, Texas. She was the widow OF
Samual James McKeethan, at one
time citizen of Morgan County.
She and her husband, accompanied
by Elda H. Mckeethan, moved
from North Carolina in a covered
wagon before the Civil War; moved
to Texas in 1880, and spent the re-
mainder of their lives there She
was the mother of six boys and five
girls; among the living are: Mrs.
Mary Davis, Mountain Park, Okla,
Mrs. Maggie Brightwell, Hutchins,
Texas, Mrs Bertha McCartt, Sun
bright. r. B, McKeethan, Lancas-

Elda, Hutchins, Texas, one son,
Gilbert disappeared in 1919, and no
trace of him has ever been found.
She was all that is required in the
makeup of an ideal wife and moth

In all of her trials her faith never
wayered. No one knows a mothers

Friends OF the Hinkston route for

the rights-of-way free of cost and are
using every argument to bring it by
this way but the other route which
is being favorably considered is at
least a fourth of a mile shorter than
the Hinkston route with probably one
short bridge TO be built and to us it
seems to be much cheaper in its con-
struction, is the line the many want
and If rights-of-way are offered free
of cost to the county would be ap-

that Germany Is practically without

Moreover, one of the most prom
inent financiers in the United States
is authority for the statement that
government loans obtained in the
United States through private banking
houses reached the total of $2,5S7 ,000,-
900, and of that amount all but about
SS1S,000,000 have been repaid. OF
course those figures bear no relation
to the leven-billion-d dollar debt owed
the United States Treasury. What
has taken place in the handling of
those privately distributed securities
should be accorded serious considera-
tion by the debt refunding commission
The record effectually disposes of the
argument so frequently advanced by
