DIES A CONVICT
PARDON ENROUTE
FlNANCIGR, SENTENCED FOR
FRAUD, DIES IN CELL - PAR.
DON IN SIGHT.

Br.dgewater, Mass, july "A
! spectacular career was ended under
pathetic circumstances today when
Cardenio f. King, once widely known
as a fnancier and newspaper pub
Usher of Boston, died a convict on
! the state farm here in the very hour
that friends, aware of the approach
OF his death, were making desperate
efforts to obtain his pardon.
Only a legal technicality prevented
his last hours being those of a free
man. Word that his case was hope
less was sent to Governor Foss at
Boston this morning and soon AFTER
ward Mrs. King and their four sons
who We're at the bedside, received
the welcome message that the gov
ernor had canvassed the members OF
his council by telephone and seven
OF the eight had consented to imme-
date clemency.
News Pleases Him.
King frightened perceptibly at the
news. He was not told Of the word
received shortly after that Attorney
Swift had rendered an opinion that a
pardon could not be granted by tele-
phone. Later, however, a telegram
brought assurance that pardon would
be granted tomorrow when the coun-
Gil had been ordered to convene Doc
tor Emerson, medical head of the
state farm, hurried with the news to
the hospital, and returned to an
nounce that King was dead.
King was convicted OF obtaining
$4,000 under false pretenses from
persons who had trusted him with
funds for investment and was SEN
fenced to from 10 to IA years. In
january, 1909, he began his term at !
Charlestown but became seriously i'll |
and was removed here. A chronic
intestinal trouble still pursued him
and last night his condition suddenly
became serious.
Succeeded by Advertising.
"A native of North Carolina, King

on in 1904, Through extensive and
unusual advertising he attracted
many investors. In 1907 he began pub
lcation of the Boston Daily Tribune,
ut it was discontinued after it had

II expense estimated at half a mill t
IN dollars. |
In 1909 Kings customers began to !
omplain that stocks for which they /
ad sent him money had not been S
eliyered. Bankruptcy followed with G
le discovery that his liabilities were

A warrant for Kings arrest was is
