 Reticent Witnesses
 The story of the case was told at a hearing yesterday, but Judge Mas colo ordered a continuance until to- day in order that witnesses might be questioned. Today he said that 1t was too bad that the witnesses who had been subpoenaed were so reticent in offering testimony of what they saw.
