MOST IMPORTANT CLUES DISCOVERED
 IN INVESTIGATION
(Continued from Page One)

(Continued from Page One)
 He placed his chief deputy, w. c. Doran, in charge of the investigation and gave orders tha no interests be allowed to hamper the probe. It was learned today that detectives who have been seeking a motive for the staying of Taylor have been Hollywood film colony.
 The investigators are endeavoring to learn whether this man has as was reported from various sources, been in love with a film actress, They are also trying to learn whether Taylor was an intimate friend of the woman. There was conjecture as to how the letters reached their hiding place. It was suggested that Taylor feared their theft and had hidden them. Letters From Many Stars.
 The letters and documents of Fay Tor accumulated, investigators said, during the time he directed such stars as Mary Pickford, Mary Miles Minter. Betty Compson, Elsie Ferguson and others.
 Miss Normand was reported to have made efforts to recover her let ters for several days, but has failed. wished to have them because some of the terms mentioned in them might be misconstrued, although she and the director understood there was no secrets.
 While the police and deputy sheriffs are still searching vigorously for Ed ward F. Sands, former secretary-va1et to the slain director, the trend of in vestigation now revolves around a theory that the crime may have been committed by some one much higher up'' than Sands.
 Since the tragedy it has been learn ed that Taylor had numerous devoted admirers among prominent stars in the motion picture world. Working upon the theory of a love angle, of ficers hold that the crime may have been committed by a jealous suitor of some film star, or that jealousy among Taylor's admirers may have led to the hiring of paid assassin.
 Another interesting angle came to light today when Detective Sergeant Serley, the first officer to reach the scene of the shooting told of finding the body lying in such a position as to indicate he had been "laid out" after the fatal shot was fired. floor, the detective said. He was lying on his back, his legs strengthened out. with his arms by his sides.
 In connection with the search for Sands wanted on robbery charges as well as in connection with the mur- der, the police have made an offer to drop the former charges if he will the Taylor mystery.
 Police say Sands even if he has no of the crime, would be able to give valuable information because of his close association with Taylor while in his employ. It was reported a man answering Sands description had been seen in Arizona.
