Sergt. Ralph Brown, of the Prince Georges County force, testified he believed the victim had been drinking. When he realized that Confrey was ill, about an hour after the man’s collapse, Brown sum- moned a physician. Dr. Jobhn T. Maloney, who per- formed the autopsy, said that Confrey died of pneumonia, a malady he had probably been suffering for almost a week. The iliness had dilated the vic- tim'’s heart, he declared. Martin, whose wife is a local rese taurant employe, was arrested early Bunday by Officer Howard Slater at University Park on charges of driving under the influence of liquor and reckless driving. Unable to furnish bond, the prisoner was committed to Jail in the basement of the police station. “He seemed all right to us then,” Slater said yesterday, ‘“although he was obviously under the influence of liquor. On Tuesday he was appar- ently suffering some sort of nervous disorder. I summoned Dr. La Vine, who gave him a sedative.” Prisoners in adjacent cells said that Martin was “thrashing around all day and seemed in a highly nervous state.” A Republican National Committee | year books.
