IN KING CASE.
First Deny, Now Affirm Money
Was Sent by Brothers.
WRITES TO AMBASSADOR.
Vest Mentioned In naoeN A6ldavlt
Was Never Seen by Cbief HiIton
or Attorney wanIess.

There Is an evident clash In the ranks
Of those who are working for the re-
lease Of Robert L. King convicted Of
the murder OF Colonel Prowse. and the
trouble arose over money matters.
King wants to know, and Attorney
Wanless wants to know what has be-
come OF the money contributed By
Kings relatives to be used In his de-
Tense. II is charged that Klugs
brothers contributed about $1,000 to be
used In the mans defense and that the
money was sent to the Italian am
Dassador at Washington or 10 the con.
SUI at Denver Il was given out that
the money was sent by the Italian gov
eminent but now Il appears that 1t
came, II there was any, from Kings
brothers.
But the peculiar part on the affair
~ this; During the early part Of last
week, Attorney Wanless was emphatic
In the declaration that not ono cent
mad been contributed TO the cause OF
klng by the Italian government with
we exception Of 81 which was given
nm by the Italian consul for tobacco.
Not only did Wanless declare that tho
government had not contributed a cent
TO klng but he also stated when II
was published In the morning papers
that Kings hrothers'had furnished the
means, that they had not given him one
cent To Il News reporter, Attor-
ney Wanless said king wrote to hia
relatives several times but never got an
answer and they have never contrib
nted q cent for his defense" Now Mr.
Wanless says just the opposite. He
says the brothers have sent money but
that neither he nor the prisoner have
seen any Of Il. When King learned
Of the money yesterday afternoon he
became very wrathy and he demanded
That Attorny GarwOod explain what has
become Of the money. II IL limited
mat the money has been, or is being
improperly used and like the man
from Missouri they want 10 be shown.
Both King and Wanleas think they
should nave . right to say how the
money Is spent In view Of the state
inent that II came from Kings brothers
and not from the Italian government.
The attorney Is anxious to use some of
the means to send to Butte for While
Meyers, the witness who Identified
King. Another affidavit ls wanted.
King has served notice upon Garwood
TO explain az once what has become Of
the money
Last night King sent the following
telegram TO the Italian representative
II Washington:
His ENcrllen1y, the Italian Ambassa-
do. Washington, ID. G.!
Have my brothers sent you any
money for me2 ! have not seen any.
