its testimony, reserving the right of offering re-
putting eVldence:-Mr. Claude desired to know
II Tue court would have certain witness put upon
the stand, VINO had been summoned by the State

defence could nave the benefit OF crossexamining
him, and said that was the practice in Baltimore
county.-The Court said such was not the practice
