M|LL|GAN'S FATE RESTS WITH JURY
 IN MURDER CASE
Eight Days Consumed In Hear ing Testimony In John Bly, ems Murder CaSe-State
 Asks Death Penalty

Charlie Milligan's fate now rests in the hands of the jury.
 The case went to the jury at $50 o'clock last night, after lengthy and exhaustive charge on the points of Jaw involved, which was delivered by Judge William E. Fort in the crimi- nal division of the circuit court.
 For two hours and twenty min-
 utes the court charged the jury
 after which the 12 men who for
 the past eight days have listened
 to the testimony of more than
 100 witnesses and the Orntory of
 attorneys in the case filed slowly
 from the jury box to begin their
 deliberations the guilt or in-
 nocence of the defendant.
 Milligan is charged with the murder of John Bivens. coal miner, near Quintown on April 2, and hearing of this. case consumed eight days.
 During tho time in which the wit nesses were being examined the court room has been crowded. Yesterday this crowd was considerably augmented when the arguments were resumed and every available space in the court room was packed. Large crowds, un able to get into the courtroom, thronged the hall waiting for an op- portunity to enter.
 WOMEN SPECTATORS
 1t wns necessary to station
 bniIih at the door 10 prevent their crOwding into the passageways
 leading to the space within the bar.
 Many women were among the spec
 tators. This is one of the most sen
 satiOnaI cnses tried in the court
 here In several years, according to
 officials and seldom has much
 interest been manifested in the
 outcome of n case.
 The closing argument was made yesterday afternoon by C. P. Beddow, special attorney general of Alabama, in charge of the prosecution. For more than two hours he pleaded with the jury to inflict the death penalty on Milligan, who the state claimed to be the man who killed John Bivens.
 John w. Altman completed his argu. ment yesterday morning, using the three and one-nalf hours allotted to him in defending Milligan and ar raignment of Dave Lattimer, star wit ness for the state, as the real murderer of Bivens.
 DEAD SILENCE
 All during the pleas of the attorneys to the jury there was dead silence ih the courtroom and all spectators were leaning forward in an effort to hear every word as 1t fell from the mouths of the attorneys
 Persons who have witnessed the trial from the beginning are of the opinion that it has been one of the btterest ever waged for the life or liberty of man in this county. The stubborn fighting of counsel over every inch of the ground and the frequent word clashes over the admissibility of evi : Gence and the examination of witnesses has featured the trial
