spread his ideas. For time, the
crowds refused to take something for
nothing. Experience told them there
must be a catch in it somewhere.
Later fair crowds gathered and for

His hobby cost him something like
81 100000.

Thereafter Davis dropped from
sight and no one seemed to know
just where he might have gone.
Some said he had gone broke. Then,
out of the West, came recent reports
OF his activities. The story went
that he had run out of funds; that
depression time tactics had been
taken by the banks; that loans were
refused and that he was sitting on
the rim of millions without suffici-
ent money to do anything about it..
His money, it was said, had vanished
in bank crash in Brockton, Mass,
his home town.
Hardly had the tale gone about
when press dispatch told of a river
OF oil in which Davis was again
swimming. A few days ago he was
seen back in New York.
Broadwayites say that the fab
ulous Ladder" will be revived and
that, once more, Davis will have
fortune to toss after it. Also he will
endow a drama and music school,
they say.

STOCKHOLM, April 25.-A tale OF
romance of 20 years standing turned
up today In the tangled affairs Of Ivar
Kreuger, Swedish match king. who
committed suicide in Paris last month
IT was disclosed he bequeathed about
$4,000 to Mrs Ingeborg Eberth, Stock
A1olm society woman.
Asked if she we're "the woman" in
Kreuger's life, Mrs. Eberth said:
'If I answer that question it will be
telegraphed all over the world. I will
only say that he willed me the most.
Cash Is Lacking.
The money probably will not be avail
eble, for investigation showed no cash
among KreugerS assets. Mrs. Eberth
said, however, he made a last promise
to her which leads her to believe the
money is deposited for her somewhere.
He was a fine, noble man." she said.
His death, she told a correspondent
for the newspaper Politikken at Copen-
hagen, was still a mystery, with un-
answered questions in every direction.
why was his coffin not opened in
Stockholm" she asked. What was all
this talk about a glass window in the
coffin? Such things are not done in
Sweden. What was the rumor about
the body having been embalmed?"
Suspects Death Secret.
She was convinced, she said, there
was some secret in connection with the
financier's death. why did his brother
and sister, Torsten and Greta, announce
they were going to Paris and then not
do SOP" she queried.
She said he gave her about $4,000
before he left for the United States
early this year in case she should need
money but that it was in the form OF
debentures which she did not cash and
which now are worthless.
