Wilcox Warns Public Against "BuSineSS Mems Committed"

New York, Aug. 19.-If you have
 not already sent check, to help the
 cause along, to the National Business 1 Mems Committee, or the Business
 Mems Republican Publication Board
 as it was more recently known, chair
 man Wilcox asks that you not do it. 1 A good many prominent business men l in various parts of the country have contributed, it was said, and now
 may regret it. MT. Wilcox, who is the 1 head of the Republican National Com 1 mittee, in view of recent complaints, denounced the organization yester- day as having no connection whatever with the National Committee, or any auth Orization to collect funds for the Hughes campaign
 The organization has an ottlce at 25 West Forty-fifth St. It was 1ncor- porated on June 10, the day before MT. Hughes was nominated. An lm-
 posing list of prominent republicans
 appeared on it's letterhead as members.
 Most of these have since repudiated It.
 Immediately after it's organization
 the committee began sending out let
 ters to republicans all over the coun-
 trv, asking for contributions. These
 letters bore the name of Jules s.
 Bache, of New York, as chairman, and
 Bond Thomas, as assistant treasurer, both of whom resigned when they found out that the committee was not auth orized by the National Committee. Several prominent republicans are known to have contributed $200 to S25O each under the impression that inc money went to the Republican Ma tional Committee.
 Charles A. Schieren, of Brooklyn, sent s2OO. which was returned on his demand. George Eastman, of Eoches ter, sent s25O, and it is not known whether his money was returned The names of MT. Schieren and MT. East man appeared on the original letter. heads with MT. Bache. Others who were listed as directors were: A. T. Estabrook, Boston; Adolph Lewisohn, New York; Hugh Chalmers, Detroit; H. c. Brewster, Rochester; Colonel Austin Colgate. New Jersey; Frank Ti1fOrd. New York, and several of Pittsburghs wealthy business men.
 Complaints were made to Chairman Wilcox about the representation made by the solicitors of the organi- zatiOn, conveying the impression that they represented or had relations with the National Committee. Mr Wilcox insisted that the name of the organi- zation be changed, and this was done on August 1. MT. Wilcox had com with most of the alleged di- | rectors of the original committee" and they withdrew. 1

WITNESS MESSING
 IN MURDER CASE
Hotel Man Had Refused to Aid
 King, Confessed Slayer

Albion, N Y, Aug. 19.-Frank Mon-
 tondo, important witness in the Chas. D. Phelps murder case is missing.
 Montondo is proprietor of the hotel in l Knowlesville at which Erwin King.
 who recently confessed to the murder
 of Phelps and his housekeeper, stayed for week prior to the crime. John c. Knickerbocker. district at- torney Of Orleans county, secured the conVlctlon of Charles F. Stielow for the murder, and it was after he took | charge of King last week that the lat ter retracted his confession. Since then the district attorney and detec- tives in the employ of the county have
 been trying to bolster the repudiation
 by establishing an alibi for the man who confessed the crime.
 Montondo was seen repeatedly bv the detectives, who tried to get him to make an affidavit that King was in the hotel the entire evening of the murder and went to bed at 10 o'clock. Montondo told them he could not re- member.
 Efforts have continued, however, to refresh Montondo's memory, and it was feared that drastic methods had been used. His disappearance became known, when Mrs Montondo came to Albion in search of her husband She said she had not seen him since last Tuesday, when he was with her in Me- dina, a few miles from KnowIesville.
 Mrs. MOntondo pleaded with the de- tectives to let him return home. They said they did not know where he was She also enlisted the aid of David A. White, the lawyer who is leading the fight to save Stielow from the electric chair. She declared that, like her husband, she was unable to recall see- ing King the night of the murder She refused to make an affidavit. how ever, fearing, she said, that her hus- band might object and do her harm.
 Representatives of the prosecutors cfice with the detectives employed last year by the county to get e:,fdence against StielCW. were in Medina to ob- tain corroboration of Kings latest statement repudiating his confession.
 The detectives said they had evl- dence which might result in an arrest within twenty-four hours. It was a~- serted that a warrant had been issued by H. c. Tucker, justice of the peace in Albion, but Tucker declined to confirm the report.
