OZARK, Ark, Dec 1-Is the long sought secret of the fabulously rich Aztec gold mics near a solution? markings on the face of cliff near here lead to a vault of gold and sil- yer bullion worth S120,000,000?
 The question has come to the fore again, as deep research is being made to determine the hierogliphics, and as plans are going forward for the final search which is expected to end treasure quests over more than a century A man who has searched for a quarter of century and eX- pended thousands of dollars, thinks that herein is the key, and that he will soon unlock the romantic mys- teria of the Lost Louisiana" mines.
 Tradition has it that the ancient Aztecs operated fabously rich gold and silver mines in Mexico, using the metals for implement making. etc. With the coming of the Spanish conquerors. the mines were seized.
 Twelve of the mines are said to have been located Hi the Wlld lSolat- ed parts of the Ozarks. The Spanish are said to have operated these with Mexican slave labor until 1793. Then came rumors of war with France.
 Spanish Hide Treasure
 Fearful lest their treasure-trove be seized, the Spanish are said to have stored all the gold and silver bullion in a secret vault and ob- ! liberated all trails leading to it ans to the mines. For their future guid- ance. they are said to have left se- cret markings on the face of a cliff. | When the territory passed in to French possession in 1900, French adventurers started the search for | the treasure. After America ac' quired it by the Louisiana purchase, | the search continued.

Now, after years of fruitless search by his professors, one pros pector remains confident in his be- lief that he has finally struck the spot where the Aztc trasure lies hidden. He is .Dr. Tobe Hill, prac ticing physician of Mulberry Ark.
 Twenty five years ago. a rowing Spaniard divulged the secret of the olst mines to Dr. Hill and his father. He took them over the territory which the physicians father owns, and which he says, hoics the se- cret of this vast wealth. After these 25 years of unremit- ting search and the expenditure of between $15,OOO and S25,OO0, Dr. Hill has succeeded only in reaching what he believes is the vault wherein the Spaniards buried the gold and sil- yer they had unearthed from the Aztec mines. But he is halted at the opening.
 There, on a ledge above the en- trance to the natural vault, is what Hill believes IS the open-SeSame to ! the treasure. It consists of hiero- gliphics of strange signs.
 An accident led pr. Hill to the dis covery of the vault and it's queer tablet. A ledge of rock near his fathers home had long been the rubbing post" for hogs. One day a neighbor noticed the hogs had un- covered the graven figure of bow and arrow pointing downward.
 He told Dr. Hill and digging was l immediately begun. Down and down went the workmen until they had uncovered an entire cliff, about 20 feet high and 100 feet long, its smooth face covered with the strange
 signs. Tunnels were bored and shaft
 sunk until water forced their abon- donment.

NEW YORK, Aug. 29.-Stock mar

and. under fairly heavy demand for
stocks of this class, prices started u
new forward movement, which car
ried them into higher levels. The
steel stocks were not backward, hSw-
ever. entering quite actively into the
trading lists and adding materially
TO their market rating.
The most important factor affect
ing the industrials was. OF course,
the coal situation, which business
and financial leaders. are generally
disposed to regard as having passed
the crisis and being on the road to
rapid recovery. Already the produc-
ton of bituminous coal has reached
q total of z SOC, 900 tons a week, with
10000, 900 tons a possibility for the
near future. More coal means more
power for industrial plants and a
continuation of production instead OF
the threatened cessation which has
long been hanging as a cloud over
the market. With the exception of
Coca Cola, which sold down over q
point on disappointment over the
failure Of the directors to increase
the dividend on the Common stock,
Industrial specialties moved forward
rather briskly on active demand from
different sources. North American
Company made a sensational dash
of about points to a new high at
98; Corn Products gained nearly 1
points, at 119T; American Telephone
and Telegraph crossed 124; Mallin-
son sold up point, to 38h, on re-
ports Of an important amalgamation;
Dupont sold up 2h; Iron Products

points, to 93A; Brooklyn Edison
gained points. at 120. The steel

United States Steel nearly made up
its 81 .25 dividend in the morning ses-
sion, selling at 103$, for a gain of
about one point; Gulf States Steel
was UP 2A to S5%, Cruc.l lie up rs
to 945s; Midvale, Republic and Van
