Judge Gatens Declares) Congestion of Calendar Demands Delay Kt anaush May Sit. Another postponement In the trial of Louis J. Wilde In the State Circuit Court has been made necessary by the Inability of the various departments to catch up with their work. Presiding Judge Gatens announced yesterday that the Wilde case could not be taken up before Thursday or Friday aad It may have to go over until Monday morning. "It will be altogether Impossible to begin the Wilde case tomorrow morn ing, as expected." said Presiding Judge Gatens yesterday. "The court Is still several cases behind in its calendar and these must be cleared before the criminal prosecution of Wilde can be taken up. The pending calendar can not be disposed of and place made for the Wilde case before late Thursday and probably not before Friday morn ing. There is even a possibility that It cannot be reached before next Mon day. The postponement of this case for one or two days la positively un avoidable."
