STATE RESTS IN
 TETHEROW TRIAL
SEVERAL WITNESSES TESTIFIED YESTERDAY-CAS WILL BE CONTINUED THIS MORNING. DEFENSE MA / FINISH TODAY.

The state rested yesterday afternoon in it's testimony in the case against Glenn Tetherow, charged with the mur- der of Hardy White In closing the case, the request was made by the pros- ecuting attorneys that the jury be sent to the scene of the killing in Ensley.
 .There was nothing of especial impor- tance brought out in the trial yesterday.
 Eight witnesses for the state were ex- amined during the day, and after the
 state had announced closed. the defense placed one witness upon the stand. The
 most important testimony taken yester-
 day seemed to be that of Robert K.
 Martin, apothecary, who testified-that he
 had weighed the bullet alleged to have been found in Whites body and he found | that it compared with that fired from | Tetherow's pistol.
 Several witnesses testified that the arc light on the corner of Avenue F and 17th street was burning on the night of the killing. This testimony was offered to show that the movements of White were
 plainly visible at the time of the trouble. | An attempt was made by the state to have the clothes of the deceased placed | upon witness Stitch for the purpose of
 showing the position of the bullet holes, | but this was overrule- by the court. The case will be continued this morning, and
 1t is expected that the defense will finish | it's testimony today.

 There is no reason why a city as large as Birmingham should not be put on first-class basis, and the city ad- ministration should take steps to adjust the matter. The business interests of the city are suffering under this increase in insurance rates"
