ROCKEFELLER AND
 OTHERS MUST PLEA
 BEFORE U. s. COURT
Dates Set for Final Pleas Must Stand Says Iudge-0verruIeS Pleas of Defendants Who Had Three Allegations Laid Out.

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-The final pleas by William Rockefeller and eight others of the twentyone direc- tors of the New Haven railroad, un der indictment for violation of the sherman antitrust law, must be filed with the United states district court here next Tuesday When the argu- ment will also be heard on demurrers filed by counsel of the defendants. Judge Sessions, so decided, after he granted permission to the defendants 10 change their pleas to the indict- ment againss them and overruled three pleas in abatement which they filed last Monday.
 In oyerruling the pleas entered last week the court dealt first with the allegation that the indictment is defective on the ground that the grand jury had been drawn by a deputy clerk residing in New ter sey. The court held the deputy clerk had right Co act in the absence of the clerk.
 The plea that the powers of the grand jury had expired one month before returning the indictment. the court ruled was untenable because the court had right Co extend indef- ritely the life of the grand jury.
 Iu regard to the third contention that the indictment should be quash. ed because two stenographers were present during the grand iury's de. liberations-the judge expressed a belief that the right of the attorney general to appoint assistants who were not lawyers To do clerical work 'n grand jury deliberations could not be questioned.
 Counsel tor the defendants attempt ed to postpone argument on the de murrer until a date later than sel by the court. but the judge asserted he would not wait longer than Thurs day because he expected to leave fol his home in Michigan Friday.

opening of the second set and out played Williams in every department of the game, soon leading 4-love. The young: defender tried desperately to stem the tide and took the fifth and seventh games only to lose the eighth 40-love and the set 6-2.
 Williams opened the third set by winning his own service. His drives became truer and his entire game steadier and he soon led 2-1, but Brookes won the fourth game at net. Both played beautiful tennis, each winning his own service until the challenger, showing wonderful head work, broke through in the fif- teenth game. With the score of g. love in sets and S-7 in games against him, Williams for time lost his ner- brilliantly winning the next three games and the set 10-S. The crowd went wild and Brookes threw down his racquet and balls and covered his ears seemingly in a state of nervous demoralization. Of course the crowd intended no disrespect to the visitor but was only applauding the bril- liant "pep'' of our defender. The
 
 England, as observed at last years match, are entirely different from those in vogue here, and Brookes was not accustomed to such outbursts which as Anthony Wilding says, "en- tirely unnerved the veteran
 In the fourth set Williams played the same kind of nervous tennis that he showed at the start of the match, netting his back hand drives repeat edly, and Brookes won 6-3, thereby capturing for Australasia again the much-prized Davis cup.
 Soon after the first and deciding match was over, Maurice E. Me- Loughlin and Anthony F. Wilding ap- peared on the court. Of course it must be remembered that the heavy strain of winning or losing the cup which had so demoralized Williams had been removed and these two wonders "cut loose'' and astonished the crowd. Frederick B.. Alexander say, For fifteen years I have fol- lowed tennis both as 8 player and as a student of the game, but during that time I have never witnessed an exhibition equal to that shown by Mclaughlin"
 His service, the speed of his drives and his genera1ship enthused the crowd to the highest pitch, and by defeating Norman E. Brookes, the worlds recognized champion, on Thursday and his old opponent, An thony F. Wilding on Saturday, Me- Loughlin has made himself the fore most figure in the tennis world.

Maxwell s. Porter, of Lexington street, captain of the High school tennis team, who witnessed the 1n-
 ternational tennis matches, has pre- pared for the Herald an interesting
 resume of the affair, which follows: Australasia captured the Davis
 Eennis cup only because America has but one Mclaughlin. The Aus tralasians took a lead of to 1 by
 winning the doubles on Friday, but
 even with this handicap the crowd
 of 12,OO0 assembled at the Forest Hills courts with no little amount of
 hope in their hearts.
 Brookes and Williams entered the
 court at 2:15 and began immediate

 made a big mistake in not attacking his opponent in a whirlwind style

 6-1, taking three love games out of the seven. Brookes took the initiative at the
