STATE TAX COMMISSION By Ralph WirU. -- Secretary. S.. J 1-2 8 O. 5-12 SPOKANE. Wash.. Sept. 27. (AP) Archie Much, accused of killing a woman with a hatchet. today laid the blame on "James Murphy," whom police say Is a mythical character. Much, sometimes called Mooek, Is formally cfiarged with the hatchet slaying of Mrs. Katharine Clark, Boston, divorcee, who came to Spokane officers 1 say, because Much wrote her letters signed "James Murphy" and promised marriage. The sheriff dug up the letters and a Toll of money be lieved to belong to the woman In Mueh'a backyard after the mur der. Today, for the first time, re porters were allowed to inter view Much and he gave his ver sion of the case. Has Long Acquaintance "I have known Murphy for! about two years," Much asserted, "and it seems strange that he should disappear Just at this time, unless he is the killer and is bid ing from justice." "Murphy he stated was selling stocks and bonds, "seemed to have plenty of money" and drove an expensive car. Then Much told of "Murphy's" plan to meet a prospective wife through matri monial bureaus at Los Angeles and Western Springs, 111. "He told me that he was about to be left, some money, but that his father's will had provided that he must be married and Ahave $10,000 before he would receive the $100,000 left In his estate, Catales; Received "He wrote the matrimonial bureau and received a catalog, giving the names ot many wo men who wanted to be married I. don't know how he happened to pick Mrs. Clark the catalogue said she had but $2000 while- some of them had as much as I10M00. I cannot believe that If he was going to murder a woman for her money that he would pick one that had but $2000." Then Much eontlnued,.the wo man came to Spokane, and he took her in a borrowed ear last Saturday night to find the house of "Murphy's sistsr" Just over the Idaho state line. He said they met Murphy, they "all drank some beer" and "that la the last I re member until I awoke about dawn."- During this time the wo man was slain. Money Find Baffled 'I don't know bow to exDlain the money that was found in my back yard," Much went on"un less Murphy thought he was going to be caught and thought he could throw the blame on me." The love letters 'sent to Mrs. Clark had urged her to bring her money to Spokane. She apparent ly had almost $1400. The church to which Mueh's wife belongs will undertake his defense, it is believed here. First Collegian Off Press; Now Tabloid In Form MT. CREST ABBEY MAUSOLEUM VAULT ENTOMBMENT LLOYD T. RIGDON.
