NEW WITNESS IN THE
 NAN PATTERSON TRIAL,
Name of the Person Has Been Carefully Concealed up to This Time-Nan Ate the Prison Fare for Her Thanksgiving Dinner-Refused Have Dinner Brought from Outside.

New York, Nov. 25-A new and i'm portant witness whose identity thus far has been carefully concealed will be brought forward by the prosecution in the trial of Nan Patterson for the murder of Caesar Young, according to story which gained considerable cir cuiation around the criminal court building to-day. Beyond the state ment that the witness is q woman, that she Is young and that she was well acquainted with both Caesar Young and the woman now on trial, the report was indefinite Of the nature of the disclosure which the witness is expected to make nothing could be learned. That the testimony Is considerad to be of great importance by the prosecution however, seems ap- parent. According to the report the woman is constantly under the guard of county detectives.
 The calling of this mysterious wo- man to the witness chair is said to be only one of the many startling fea- lures of Assistant District Attorney Rand's case. Almost of the same im- pOrtance to the strength of his chain of evidence are several documents he has obtained possession of since Miss Patterson has been prisoner in the Tombs. 1t has been claimed since the arrest of, the young woman that the prosecutor had secured possession of letters which, it is alleged, show that the defendant made threats against the life of Young, but the doc uments which, it is said, will be pro duced as a complete surprise are of a different character.
