Thin ilr ...,ii ; tne jury iu the case yesterday after-1 .lic as:.assin 8 lawyers, it Is denounced by attorneys for the ; state as a cunning fabrication, de ; vised by the lawyer murderer In his extremity as the only possible meth od of saving his neck. The story Is said to be as much an assault on the name of the victim as an intend ed vindication of Finch. That Fisher practically compelled him to shoot will be Finch's declara tion from the witness stand, accord ing to the opening statement present id ly the defense, lie will tell of a peaceful visit to Fisher, wherein he was seeking to build up his lost repu tation and regain the good will of the liar Association. He wtil toll of Fisher having a sudden and uuex plainable fit of wrath durlug which he attacked Finch with a notary's seal. Driven luto a corner, desper ately assailed by a larger man, and finally compelled to shoot to ore- vent his own brains from being beat en out, that is the lurid picture as drawn by Finch and his lawyers of the scene In Fisher's office at the time of the murder. Lotko Crowds Attracted. No murder trial of past years has attracted so many people. Although the curious multitude was excluded after tho sents had all been filled, enough persons clnimlng to be law yers got luto the room during the af ternoon to jam completely every Inch of standlug room. There were uo less than 300 persons in the spacious courtroom and double that number was turned away. The completed Jury in the case is: W. O. Abbott, E. K. Howes, .1. V. Davis, V. K. Charlton, S. I. Ogden, Robert Service, Charles J. liush, C. 11. Thompson, M. L. Lank, F. V. Hanna. V. 11. Musser and Albert Sunderland. GOOD LIST OF PRIZES O HUNG UP BY CO. o A!
