TRY ID D|SCRED|T DYER'S TESTIMONY Pearce Trial Will Require
 All Week TELL OF QUARREL Father of Leon Dyer Says His Chil- dren Must Never Know Any thing He Can Not Teach
 Them

Annlston, April 12.--(Special.)- trial of Dr. John E. Pearce, dentist and sawmill owner and principal in an all leeed conspiracy to murder Shelt and Sarge Kennedy. father and son. was con- tinued-in the city court all day wednes- day and as heretofore the circuit court room, where the hearing is being con- ducted. was crowded to it's capacity. It is not expected that verdict will be reached in the case until Friday.
 Since the defense took the case Tuesday afternoon the defending attorneys have occupied most of their time in an effort to discredit the testimony of Leon Dyer, the 17-year-old boy, who is regarded as hav- ing cinched the states case unless his story of the tragedy Is proved untrue.
 Al and William Harrell, the two wit nesses upon whom the defense mainly re- lied to contradict young Dyer, were given a severe lecture by the court for not hav- irg obeyed their Summons to court, and they were taxed with the costs for the having to be brought to the city under attachment. Both men denied that they had given Pearce information in regard to Shelt and Sarge Kennedy.
 Ethel and Minnie Eaton, daughter and wife of John Eaton, one of the sextette of alleged feudists to be tried, testi- ned that young Dyer's testimony was false, as he had come to the home of the eged Bill Kennedy after the shooting and stated that he was glad he had not seen the shooting, as he did not want to be a witness in the case Ada Kennedy later testified to the same effect.
 Fillmore Griffin, one of the witnesses for the defense, testified that Pearce told him that Bill Kennedy would have trained his own son, Shelt Kennedy, had the defendant, Dr. Pearce, not prevented him. Other witnesses testified to quar- rel which took place at the scene of the tragedy, in which the aged father and lis daughter, Ada Kennedy, were arrayed against Shelt Kennedy. Dr. Pearce came up during the dispute, it was stated, and Shelt Kennedy remarked, according to Ada Kennedy's story, There is the - I want" herewith raising his gun to shoot.
 That the trial would last throughout the week was stated by Judge Coleman this afternoon, when he dismissed all extra veniremen who had been summoned for
