To obtain what you want you have to set the tick labels invisible is
the axes where you don't want them to show up.
>From http://matplotlib.org/examples/pylab_examples/shared_axis_demo.html:
setp( ax.get_xticklabels(), visible=False)
As the axis are shared, the ticklabels are also shared, so setting
them to "", erase them from all the axes.
I hope that this helps.
Cheers,
Francesco
