GLASS AND STEEL MEN.
Two Pennsylvania Manufacturers Desire In
formation of Birmingham Regarding
Those Two Items.
Mayor VanHoose yesterday received
two letters from Pennsylvania gentle
men who are watching Birmingham
with a great deal of interest just now.
They have noted the press dispatches
sent out from here telling of the indus
trial revival, and they write to know
if ail reports are true.
One of the gentlemen is manager of a
large steel mill near Pittsburg, and he
makes particular inquiries with reference
to the iron of this district, coal and other
material necessary in the manufacture
of steel. His letter indicates a desire
on the part of the writer to invest in a
steel mill here.
The other letter was from a Pennsyl
vania glass manufacturer, lie desires
information as to the possibility of mak
ing glass here.
The mayor replied to his letter stating
that a few years ago a glass plant was
erected and operated here, though, as
to its success he could give no informa
tion, as he had no personal knowledge of
it.
Letters similar to these are received
almost every day by Birmingham people,
which Is evidence of a growing interest
in Birmingham.

THE LIZZIEJURH KILLING
First Steps Begun m Officer By
ars’ Case.
\
ADJOURNED UNTIL TODAY
_
Witness Annie Simms Says Lizzie Durr Was
Not on the Car When Shot—The
Rebuttal.
The preliminary trial of Policeman J.
N. Byars was begun yesterday after
noon before Justice I. N. Benners. He
is charged "with the murder of Lizzie
Durr, a negro girl, on the morning of the
16th instant.
The girl was stealing coal near the
gas house on Thirteenth street, and Of
ficer Byars claims that the killing re
sulted from an accidental discharge of
his pistol when the girl Jumped on him
from a coal car.
Justice Benners obtained permission to
conduct the trial in the circuit court
room, as his office on Twentieth street
was too small to accommodate the large
number of colored and white spectators
who are interested in the result of the
preliminary hearing. There were a great
many negroes present, and they are deep
ly interested In the case. They believe
that they have suffered an outrage on
their rights, notwithstanding the mani
fest regret of the. officers of the law and
the earnest statement by Officer Byars
that the killing was purely an accident.
All who were present yesterday could
not be accommodated inside the circuit
court room, and the door was guarded
by the determined deputy sheriff, John
Hewitt. The chairs On the left inside,
however, were given to the darkies, and
they listened-quietly to the testimony of
fered in the case.
Byars sat inside the railing. He seemed
keenly alive to his situation. He looked
pale, but the. gaze from his eyes was
strong, and the handsome black mus
tache drooped about a mouth that indi
cated a nature entirely devoid of the
least trace of fear. He is about 40 years
old, but he wears his age well. He is a
handsome man.with an honest, open face
and looks anything but a man who would
willfully take the life of a negro girl.
His attorneys, Messrs. B. M. Alien, J. J.
Altman and W. P. McCrossln, sat near
him. Chief McDonald, Officer Joe Nix,
Bus Dllard. Sergeant, Donelson, Sheriff
Morrow and a number of deputies were
also present.
Outside the court room the hall was
crowded with negroes. Officer Will Ba
ker was on duty and kept an aisle open
in the mass of humanity. A State Her
ald reporter passed through on different
occasions. Some of the negro men car
ried canes and some of them were under
the influence of liquor. Such remarks
were heard as: “Have they let him
a-lonse?" “Have they,.discharged him?’
“Why don’t they let us in there?" “We
ought to tear the doors off the hinges.”
But no acts of violence were attempted.
It would have been a dreadful scene had
violence been offered. •
Attorneys Meade, Vaughan and Brown
appeared for the prosecution. Attorney
Brown is colored, but his skin is almost
as white as a Caucasian's. He lately
passed a brilliant examination before the
circuit court, and was admitted to prac
tice in this state. He did not examine the
witnesses, but.took notes of the testimo-'
ny and listened to the arguments of
counsel.
A list of witnesses was called, and they
were sworn. Several of them were col
ored witnesses for the prosecution.
The first witness introduced by the
prosecution was Annie Simms.
She swore that the girl, Lizzie Durr,
came to her door on the morning of the
killing, and, after arousing her, the two
went after the coal at the scene of the
shooting. She said that she and de
ceased were not on the.car, but that they
were picking up coal near it from the
ground. She said officers came up.
Officer Byars, witness said, was about
15 feet in advance of the two other men.
She and deceased ran, said the witness,
and Officer Byars called, “Halt! I’ll stop
this coal stealing!”
They did not stop, she said, and Officer
Byars fired. Officer Byars ran after her
and caught her.
Attorney B. M. Allen conducted the
cross-examination. He-asked witness for
testimony tending to show corrupt moral
character. Objected to by Attorney
Meade, and after a lengthy argument
of counsel the objection was sustained
by the court.
Witness said on the cross-examination
that she had plead guilty in the inferior
criminal court to the charge of stealing
coal, and that she told the truth. She
was fined $1, without costs. She said Offi
cer McCullom and Mr. Byron were in thq
rear of Officer Byars. When asked how
many people she had talked with about
the case, she said Kditor Harris, colored,
and Lawyer Meade. She denied having
talked with the officers and a newspaper
reporter at the police station.
The witness was discharged by the de
fense, and the prosecution announced
that they would rest the case.
Officer MoCullom was called for the de
fense. IJe stated that he and Officer By
ars went to the coal ears together. When
they approached they could discern fig
ures on top. Could not tell whether they
were men or women. Officer Byars was
in advance of him, and went towards the
north end of the car on the west side.
He (Officer McCuliom) took the direction
on the east side. When Officer Byars
got near the car the figures on top
jumped like a covey of birds. He heard
Officer Byars call, “Come down from
there,” and almost immediately when the
figures jumped from the car he saw the
flash of a pistol and heard the report.
A woman ran east, and he pursued her.
Officer Byars ran by him and captured
the woman. Witness went back to the
car and found the (deceased dead. He
m-t Officer Byars coming back and heard
him ask the woman who it was that
threw the coal on him, and she said it
was a boy. Witness tbld Officer Byaiis
that he had ?hot the girl, and defendant
thought witness was “guying” him. To'
the best of his knowledge and belief wit
ness believett that deceased was one of
the figures on the ear.
Annie Simms plead guilty in the infe
rior criminal court to the charge of steal
ing coal from a Tennessee Coal. Iron
and Railroad company car. The charge
was read to her.
It was then 5 o'clock, and the court ad
journed until 9 o’clock today.
The hall and court room were cleared
of spectators, and the prisoner was ea.fi
i led back ^p jail under, a .heavy escort. ^
