It can mean various things; but at its most basic level, it means that a subpoena was issued and service was attempted. The return simply identifies the results of the service (meaning whether the person was served or not).
Guess I have to spell this out. A subpoena was issued, many for criminal testimony. None were delivered, which in this case means they fled the country or are dead.
