King Alfonso, the exiled ruler of Spain, has amassed a personal fortune of £3,500,000, most of which has been invested abroad,' se- cording to sensational allega- tions made to-day by the Minister of Finance, Senor Prioto.

It was then stated that the King would have sufficient to live upon, but his resources were limited, certainly not large enough, to allow him to spend freely. It was also declared that the bulk of the King's funds were invested in. Spanish industrial enterprises.
