 On the 23d day of March, 1914, the complaint of the plaintiff was fled in this court, upon which a summons was duly issued for the defendants, also a temporary injunction upon the allegations of the complaint, and oral testimony before the court was granted on the same day; which sum- mons and injunction were, on said 23d day of March, 1914 duly served upon the defendant s. H. CamnitZ, but not upon either of the other defend ants. That on March 25, 1914, the appearance in said couse, and through his attorneys G. F. Wilmington and Richard Ryan, filed his motion in writing, to require the plaintiff to make it's complaint filed herein more definite, certain and specific in this, tO-wit To file it's alleged contracts with the persons mentioned as play CTS with contractual obligations be- tween them and the plaintiff, and es' pecally those mentioned in the tenn porary order of injunction herein, etc. That the plaintiff be required to file copies of said contracts as exhibits to its complaint; and that the complaint be required to show the places where each of said contracts were obtained; that plaintiff be required to set out in its complaint complete and true copies of all it's arguments in refer eace to the conduct of it's business with the eight clubs mentioned as the National League of Baseball clubs. The plaintiff filed it's original con tracts with James Niox and George McQuillan, as prayed with permission to withdraw the same when copied into the evidence taken herein; as to the contracts with the other players, the plaintiff rendered them to the court for it's examination. and copies thereof to be filed with the evidence, except thai the consideration is omitted The court refused to con. sder the originals as evidence unless the same could be examined by coun- sel for defendants. Thereupon. the originals were withdrawn. and the plaintiff rested upon the copies. There was no objection. or claim that the copies were not true and cor rect copies, except as to the consd eration.
 The demurrer of the defendant to the complaint, filed on March 2S, 1914, stating for cause that the com plaint does not state facts sufficient to entitle the plaintiff to the relief prayed, was by agreement of parties. argued with the facts of the case, and was by the court overruled.

H. Camnitz, as prayed for by him, or the same to be made perpetual as prayed for by the plaintiff The defendant Camnitz, being the only party served with notice or summons herein, and the only defendant appearing or an swering herein therefore he is the only defendant considered herein. and no rights of the other defengants shall be preiudiced by the findings or decree rendered thereon as to defend ant Camnitz.
