day's peaks.

A few constructions made a late "n"

bid foy leadership and several pow- er iszues also wzrg in the limelight vim heavy gains. The whole list w“, slipping at the close, however.

, Dominion Bridge was- one 0f the market's features, rising to 34 1-2 midway through the aftemoon and men declining to a closing level of 33 3-4 where it held a gain of 1 3-4. A few more oonztructions followed wit, Canada Cement preferred clos- ing up 3-4 at 60.

Metals, leaders of the market for me post three sessions, held that position in forenoon trading but gmduilry lost lnteleit towards the close. Intemctlonal Nickel and Con- solidated Smeltrrs touched new peaks for the year, the former at 44 1-2 and thedatter at 220. At the final bell, Nickel was up a point at 44 3-4 and Smelter-s was down one at 217.

Small ‘Case Gains Impetus Each Year

TORONTO, December 5.—Inscrut- able as the smile of Do Vincfs Mono Lisa, the mystery of Ambrose Small, Canada's unsolved crime master- piece. is 16 years old while renewed efforts are being mule to pierce its long-standing secret. '

Early on the evening of December 2, 1616, the little brown-haired mil- lionaire theatre-owner left his Grand opera house in downtown Toronto, bought a newspaper at the corner and, officially. vanished, creating an international mystery that refuses to be forgotten.

The death o! Mrs. ‘Theresa. Smell. widow of the missing Mr. Small, slightly more than a month ago, precipitated a new series of develop- ments stlll current today.

.4 caveat has been filed against Mrs. Smalls 63,000,000 estate, re-

ported to have been willed to Cath- olic Charities. All application has been made to the Board of Police Commissioners for active reopening of the investigation of the case on the ground that the earlier invest- igation was not properly conducted.

A tatement has been made that "new evidence" has been obtained by Patrick Sullivan, friend of Flor- ence ‘and Gertrude Small, sisters oi.’ the missing theatre man, and Sullivan's lawyer, Paul Hinds, has written to executors of the Small es te asking if a reward will be o ered for a solution of the mys- tery. Arthur J. Holmes, one of the executors. replied to Mr. Hinds letter that a reward would be considered “at the proper time."

Whether anything will come of Sullivan's claims of new evidence and his actions, and the heightened interest in the case since Mrs. Smalls death. remains to be seen. Many strange things have developed from the Small case, which so far has seemed to gather dramatic im- petus es the years past.

In the beginning it was compara- tively uninteresting. Small, n then. tre man, was known to leave town for short periods without telling anyone. So it was several days af- ter he actually disappeared before police were notified by Mrs. Small. Before that a newspcperman, who owed Small some money, came down to tell him he couldn't pay it, learn- ed that Small hadn't been seen for a few days, went back to ills office and spread tho story all over his front page-

‘ Police Begin Probe

It was weeks after that before police began to suspect that Small might have been murdered. and di- looted "their investigations along those lines.

It was learned that on the day of his disappearance he had comple dlosaloofallhlsobalnofth ‘ to Trans-Canada Theatres, Ltd, I01‘ 81,750,611». Ho received a cheque for 6141110600 in connection with the deal and deposited in thebank.

Then it ‘was learned that Smalls secretary also hail and with him 6100.01!) worth of Smairs bonds. ‘nae bonds were recovered: the secretary was found in Oregon. sentenced - 6o a four-year prison term, but no lidlt was thrown on tho disappearance of Ambrose

The first reward offered was $500. It was stepped up to $5.000 End finally to $50,000 for Mr. Small, alive or $15,000 for Mr. smell deed- The offer expired September 1, 1620.

Eleven months after he vanished a report was circulated that men had been seen after dark the night of December 2, 1916, carrying some- thing from an auto into the dump in the Rosedale ravine. A steam shovel’ and 35 men were put to work digging in the area. indicated, but nothing was found.
