Mr.. Taylor's home by Mrs. Douglas
Mclean. soon after she heard a
sound like a shot.
An active personal enmity existed
between the wealthy man and Tay-
lor. according to Harry Fellows, Tay-
lor's assistant. Fellows said Tay-
lor had driven the man from the
Lasky studios with instructions to
"stay OUT and had refused to talk
with him over the telephone.
Meanwhile the investigation into
the murder which has turned the
movie world upside down went on
with police confident that they
would have an explanation before
many hours have passed.
A motion picture actor and a
camera man who were questioned
in connection with Taylor's killing
were released early today but police
did not make clear whether they
would be questioned further. Their
names also were kept secret. The
actor was brought to police head
quarters with his makeup. still on
and later went to the studio with
police where he said he could estab-
lish an alibi
Police are trying to find out what
became of the letters and telegrams
Mabel Normand sent to Taylor at
various times. These messages have
not been found although Taylor is
known to have had them in his
desk Their disappearance is re-
garded as all the more significant.
since letters from Gloria Swanson,
Blanche Sweet and other famous film
stars were found undisturbed after
the murder of Taylor
Miss Normand also wants the let
ters. She declares she is willing for
police to have them and to see them
published.
The search for Edward F. Sands,
Taylor's former valet. whom Taylor
accused OF robbing him, and for
"Dapper Don" Collins. master black
mailer, who is known to have been
about Los Angeles at the time of
the murder, also is continuing.
Another hope for a solution of the
mystery lies in Taylor's life before
he became a leading film director.
Detectives are interested in re-
ports that a brother, Dennie Deane
Taylor, also an antique expert, dis
appeared like william, and that he
also entered motion picture work
under an assumed name.
II is also altogether possible that
Taylor or Tanner. made enemies in
his wandering after he disappeared
from New York and that these enc
mics brought his death.
Melbourne Mcdowell, husband of
the late Fanny Davenport. has told
police that he knew Taylor under
the name of Tanner in 1894, when he
was a member of the Fanny Daven-
/ port Company. playing "Grismonda, "
at the Fifth Avenue Theatre in New
York. Later he toured the country
with the company.
Taylor's funeral was held at

George Melford. Arthur Hoyt, James

OF them. The holiday season was just starting
OH rs gaiety, show windows flashing their red and
green decorations, and busy community going
contentedly about its Christmas plans There was
but hsbetween this hopliday happiness and
the grimest disaster that could befall community,
and Fairmont passed from Joy to sadness in d
flash. Only seconding the grief and dismay that
followed the mine explosion, was the overwheIm.
ing desire OF the popnlaee to do something to help
In the reseue8work and the care OF those left
stricken aud destitute. The city awakened to a
brotherhood that only the world war again
brought forth. Not only did the local public unite
to do its utmost but the shord Of sympathy be-
tween all humanity frightened, and assistance and
offers of help poured in upon the mayor and city
officials from all parts Of the civilized world. II
was revelation OF that love and charity which
actually Is one Of the strongest sentiments in the
world in spite OF carping and disbelief
Fairmeht does not want another such sor.
row one such experience is more than sufficient,
but the city can remember to It's comfort that the
community met tho crushing disaster with courage
and efficiency and not q finger of criticism was
ever leveleds at any part of adjustment in caring
for the women and children or other dependents
left by the hundreds Of men who lost their lives on
that terrible day.
