witnesses in Federal Judge Jere
miah Neterer's court the other day,
where the Maryland Casualty com
pany is contesting payment of a
$30,000 insurance policy in which
Dr. M. B. Mattice, father of the
late oculist, is beneficiary.
Italph E. Dc'.vim, manager of the
club, subpoenaed as a witness for
the company, made the admission
under questioning by Defense Coun
sel Stephen V. Carey.
Downs, with evident reluctance
detailed how he had seen Dr. Al
bert Mattice intoxicated a numbei
of times while the deceased was liv
ing at the club.
He stated that upon one occasion
he had found Doctor Mattice undei
the influence of liquor, and had
called the eye specialist’s brother
Clyde Mattice, who had two patrol
men sent out.
They escorted Doctor Mattice to
the police station, where he was
kept for several days while recov
ering, he said.
“Why did you call his brother?"
asked Attorney Carey.
“My judgement told me,” the wit
ness replied, “that he was not in a
condition to be around the club.”
“What was his condition?”
“He had been drinking.”
Then Carey asked suddenly:
“Mr. Downs did Dr. Mattice ever
participate in spiritualistic seances
in your presence at the Seattle Cop
and Country Club?”
“Well,” Downs answered, depre
ciatingly, “I would call it more a
game than a seance.”
“Who were present?”
“Dr. Mattice, Mrs. Fiske, a lady
from Portland, my wife and myself."
Mrs. Hazel Fiske, fiance of Di
Albert Mattice, previously appeared
as a witness for the plaintiff in the
present case. Their plans for ;
Christmas day wedding were brok
en when Dr. Mattice was killed by a
revolver shot November 29. 1923, in
the home of her step-father, Di
Fenton W. Whiting, 2S12 Boylstoi:
avenue north.
Payments of the insurance policy
to the ender Dr. Mattice has beei
refused on the grounds that th
death was suicidal.
