VIII Making Attorney Albert

LeERtee.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2-Charles +. Jones,
the personal attendant of the late VIII
liam M. Rice, who attempted TO commit
suicide yesterday, vas reported very
much improved this morning
Efforts were being made this afternoon
to determine the exact condition Of tho
lungs of William Marsh Rice, the million
aire, after his death. Charles f. Jones,
his valet, in the confessicS he made
before he cut his throat in the Tombs,
said he saw Albert 7. Patrick holding
towel in the shape of a cone over the
aged millionaires face. Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Osborne, who said ha
would communicate with Prof. Witt
haus about the matter, said the autopsy
had revealed some condition consistent
with the theory of smothering. Whether
the lungs were affected was not known
at the district attorneys office today,
but they with other organs were remov-
ed from the millionaire's body when it
was cremated. David L. Short, who eX-
ecuted the will OF Mr. Rice. the one In
which he bequeathed the bulk of his
fortune to Albert Il. Patrick, today for
the fist time consented TO be interview
ed regarding the incidents leading up
/, to the execution of the document
To a reporter Short said: Il went to
Mr.. Rice's apartments at the request q
Mr.. Patrick. Patrick sent a messenger
to my office. I went over to Patrick's
office. He said to me: You are want
ed up town to execute some papers,
Morris Myers went with me. He went
as notary. / as commissioner of deeds.
When we reached the apartments Jones
let us in and escorted US to Mr.. Rice's
room. Mr.. Rice was sitting at his desk
and from sort of cabinet compartment
that was open drew out his papers He
said to both of us: This is my will,
gentlemen l have sent for you to wit
ness my signature
He asked Myers to read one particu-
lar clause or paragraph in the will
do not remember what the subject mat
ter of the clause was / did not pay
any attention to 1t. Mr.. Rice seemed to
have much confidence in Myers. He
consulted him about his affairs frequent
ly 1 did not know the contents OF the
will, the will was not read aloud. I
frequently executed papers for Mr. Rice.
I executed the assignments to Patrick"
MIR. Short further said that he never
talked to Myers or Patrick about the will
or assignments. He had known Mr..
Rice for about a year before his death,
nor had Mr. Rice said anything to him
about another will.
