POLICE STILL
CROPPING AFTER
MURDER CLEWS

Los Angeles. Feb 9-The central
lied investigation at the district at
torney's office of the mystery sur
rounding the murder of William Des
mond Taylor was expected to begin
today, following the alleged discovery
and turning over to that official last
night of the message and letters writ
ten to the director by Mabel Normand.
AS Thomas Lee Woolwine, district
attorney, is taking personal charge Of
the trial of Miss Madaline Oberchain,
for the murder of J. Bolton Kennedy,
VIM. C. Doran. his chief deputy, was
placed in charge OF the inquiry into
the Taylor case.
Although yerification from him was
not obtainable, the Los Angeles Times
published today statement tina the
Normand letters with several tele-
grams were in the hands of Mr. Do
ran.
1t had been previously announced
that evidence in the case from all
sources-whether gathered by city
police detectives or by deputies of the
sheriff-would be turned over to Mr..
Doran and all forces, including de-
tectives assigned to the district at
torney's office, would pool their Cner-
gies in trying to solve the mystery
To this was added today The an
nouncement that Mr.. Doran would
make all official statements on tho
progress of the investigation, how
ever, although the various officers
stated there would be no aba CIV ent
of their zeal in trying to uncover the
murderer.
Miss Normand, who once searched
the TAYLOR apartments for her lc' ers
and who is said to he i'll as a re suit
of a collapse at the Taylor fuN rial
Tuesday, has been quoted as Saving
her only desire 20 regain possession
of the letters was founded in a fear
that some of the phrases in them
would be misunderstood. She said she
felt a strong friendship for the direc-
tor. but there had been no serious
love affair between them.
A second handkerchief found its
way in-o the investigation when about
the same time the detectives said hCv
found the letters in boot in a closet
in the Taylor apartments, Henry
Peavey, Taylor's negro houseman as
suddenly found a handkerchief bear
ing the initials IN. NJ. M"
A handkerchief previously reported
found near he body shortly after the
murder was discovered. but since said
to be missing, was alleged to h've
borne the letter IS" 1t is regarded
as improbable that comNl" int
charging murder will be Issued
against any person in connection With
this case until after the whole affair
has been presen ed to the grand jury.
which has not yet been impanelled
for 1922.
Meantime. although the sheriff 5
deputies profess to scout the theory
that Edward F. Sands, former butler
secretary for Taylor could throw any
light on the case. he police detectives
remain firm in their announced belief
that the mystery will not be solved
until he had been found.

MYSTERY SURROUNDS BURNING OF THE FORMER
UNITED STATES TRANSPORT NORTHERN PACIFIC
CAPTAIN AND CREW REFUSE TO
ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS WHILE
HINTSOFFOUL PLAY ARE HEARD

Northern Pacific she was in flames
from end to end. We made haste to
her assistance and found the life
boats floating about when we reached
the scene"
One of the crew of the Transporta-
tion, cabin boy who refused to give
his name, described the scene as
horrible and beautiful" 1.-THE flames
were leaping up above the masthead
when we got there" Some of the
men who had left the burning ship
declared the flames were first Oh
served just aft of the second funnel.
No one seemed 20 know how the fire
started, but with the stern windward
the fire spread quickly and all hands
were forced to take to the boats very
quickly.
Captain Chase said his vessel
sighted the Northern Pacific about
one o'clock yesterday morning and
took the first boat in about 2:30
o'clock. The rescue work was COM
pleted at 3:20, and the Transportation
stood by until Q o'clock yesterday
morning. at which time the Northern
Pacific lis ing about 80 degrees star
board was still afloat. 81 think she
remained in that position, although of
course that is just guess. No one
knows how the fire started no one
can imagine why she listed as she
did for she was light at the time"
No one on the Transportation this
morning held out any hope for the
four men of the Sun Shipyard, Mallett,
Kruger, Breckman and Hall, who were
oh vi ho
are undoubtedly lost" said one of the
men with whom the correspondent
spoke before Captain Lusti requested
that none of the men be questioned.
Members of the ships crew say they
were quartered near where the fire
broke out, and none of them was seen
afterward."
One of the three boats picked up by
the Transportation contained thirteen
men and in the other two were dis
tributed the remainder of those saved,
including Captain Lus.i, Chief En-
gineer Clayton and Executive Clyde
Smith. The rescue ship, commanded
by Captain Seth Chase of Boston, was
on her way to Hampton roads to load
a cargo of coal for Boston.
The Wylie, bringing five survivors
from the Northern Pacific, came in
Hampton Roads unaided last night
and transferred her passenger TO one
of the boats of the Virginia Pilot As
sociation. The survivors were taken
to Sea Wall, from there went to Nor
folk, and their names cannot be
learned here.
The Wylie, after transferring the
five men, headed back to sea and
passed out of the Virginia Capes early
this morning.
Survivors aboard the Wylie declared
that they have not the slightest idea
how the fire started. They also are
at loss to understand how he Sun
ship Yard men lost their lives. The
four men were all sleeping near the
place where the blaze originated. but
the crew thing they had ample time
to get out unless they were suffoca.ed
by smoke.
Unless the ship yard mon took to
a small boat all by themselves, they
were lost when the Northern Pacific
burned, for they were not aboard
the Wylie, according to marine men
who ,alked with the survivors who
were brought in by that craft.

Places

Ocala, Feb. Representatives of
the Marion county board of trade, at
the hearing to be conducted by the
state railroad commission tomorrow
in Gainesville on the application of
the Atlantic Coast line to discontinue
several local passenger trains, will
urge that the commission investigate
the possibility of substituting gasoline
or electrically propelled motor cars
for steam local trains where steam
trains are being operated at loss.
The trains the railroad wishes to
cut off are No. 9 and 10 between Lees
burg and JACKSONVILLE, Nos. 140 and
141 between Chiefland and Ocala, and
Nos. 80 and 35, the widely known
Sunny Jom,' between Lakeland and
Ocala. A request that the road be
permitted to re-arrange its schedules
between Palatka and Rochelle also
will be before the commission.
The Marion delega lion, it was stat
ed today will take the position that
unnecessary overhead expense is one
of the factors in the high freight and
passenger rate situation and that rail.
