THE CASE OF FINNEY THE 6Us.
PECTED MURDERER.


contains the following relation OF
sus picious circumstances tending to
confirm the reconstructed statement
made by the boy Matheney, and i'm
plicating Finney:
Deputy Sheriff Belrude, OF White
Pine. arrived Sunday evening, and de-
parted yesterday morning with rlnley'
who is implicated in the Green murder
5STasi.a 81 Il. flalHHA Of Aa ssss. n
the afternoon Of the same day, Finney
and the boy, Matheney, left town on
horseback. and went out to the ranch.
A little after dark, they returned with
two of Green's horses, which they pro-
ceeded to sell, at remarkably low rates.
the following morning, Finney, In at
least one instance, guaranteeing the
title. The books Of the stable keeper
show that the horses were brought In on
the night of the 18th. This also cor
roberates the boys story. =. VIII %
remembered that Finney testified before
the Coroner's jury that he had never
visited Green's ranch but once-some
time prior to the murder. While the
oficers were searching for the body,
however. he told different story rom
this. The last time Green had been
| seen in town. he started out with ham
and sack of -four. The boy vas with
him. and the officers were not certain
chat the old man had ever reached the
ranch. Finney. prior to the arrest OF
the boy and the finding OF the body, IVES
interroeated as to his opinion on this
subject. He expressed the belief that
the old man had arrived at the ranch IL
safety, giving ss a reason for this opin-
ion that he was out there himself the
NEXT dav. and saw the ham and -four. q,
which time he cut slice from the han
and ate il raw. He made this same
statement to Sheriff Sullivan and Deputy
Sheriff johnson separately and on oil
ferent occasions. After the body wa
found. however, and things began t.
look souaIly, he denied ever having beer
