We address new measurements of Cabibbo-suppressed semileptonic D$$+\atop{s}$$ decays using 3.19 fb-1 of e+e- annihilation data sample collected at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. Our results include branching fractions $$\mathcal{B(D^+_s→K^0e^+v_e)}$$ = (3.25 ± 0.38(stat.) ± 0.16(syst.))×10-3 and $$\mathcal{B(D^+_s→K*^0e^+v_e)}$$ = (2.37±0.26(stat.)±0.20(syst.))×10-3 which are much improved relative to previous measurements, and the first measurements of the hadronic form-factor parameters for these decays. For D$$+\atop{s}$$→K0e+ve, we obtain f+(0) = 0.720 ± 0.084(stat.) ± 0.013(syst.), and for D$$+\atop{s}$$→K*0e+ve, we find form-factor ratios rV = V (0)/A1(0) = 1.67 ± 0.34(stat.) ± 0.16(syst.) and r2 = A2(0)/A1(0) = 0.77 ± 0.28(stat.) ± 0.07(syst.).
