THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, WEDNESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 16, 1908. TWO III TO GIVE FREAK TESTIMONY Finch's Attorney Says Ea gene Jlen Saw Struggle in Fisher's Office Before the Shooting Which Resulted in latter's Death.! That two witnesses from Eugene, B. J. Walla and C. M. Kissinger, will tea Ufy that they witnessed a atYUggle In Ralph B. Fisher's office the afternoon tie "was shot by James A. Finch, is the sworn statement of C H. Plgrott, attor ney for Finch, In an affidavit filed in the circuit court this morning; asking that subpoenas be Issued for the appear ance of the Eugene men to testify when the case of Finch is called for trial on Friday morning;. The affidavit of the attorney says he Is informed that Walls and Kissinger will say that on the afternoon of No vember 28 they were standing: on the RiaewaiK at a point opposite tne win dows of Fisher's office, and that on chancing to look up they aaw a struggle in progress. Then, as the affidavit runs, they saw Finch standing; with his back to the window and his hands extended in the air. A moment later they heard shot. They could recognize Finch, because they had known him for many years, and they knew his features as he moved about quickly In a scuffle. - The call for these subnoenas shows that the attorneys for Finch are work- ins; on tne sen oerense theory, despite the testimony of MWs Verna Burkhart, nsneri stenograpner, who witnessed the shooting from the office door and THROW OUT THE LINE Give Them Help and Many Portland People Will Be Happier., i "Throw Out the Life Line" The kidneys need help.
