no way affect the decree originally prayed for. (4) Because the new defendbill are not( thereby made parties ants mentioned in said in said supplemental to the original suit. (5) Because it is nowhere bill that the made defendants thereto have infringed the letters patent bill.(6) 'Because the decree granted to RolfflrtS j 'as'set 'furth in the prayed for by the original bill would not affect the new parties mentioned in saidsupPletpental bill. ,(7) Because by said alleged supplemental bill the decharged with the crime of conspiracy. the remedy for whichls :by indictment or information laid by the attorney of the commonwealth.q,r other public officer. and not by a l'ill or suit inequil;y. (8) Becanlle th,estatutory congress for infringement of letters patent is specific as to what may be charged. and there iS"Do clausl' in the staW!ie l®killg, to, consplrl\eles. (9) Because said allegedsnpplelucntal bill is scandalous and imvertinent. I am of opinion that these exceptions, taken as a whole, are unanswered by anything brought forward in complainant's brief, and that, by the rules of equity practice governing bills of this character, it is clear that the filing of this supplem'ental bill should not be allowed. The cOlpplninant also moves that the court order the defendant to file anink-draw'ing of an exhibit knownas "Sketch of the Roebling Patent." The exhibit 'all file is in pencil. I do 110t think it would be proper for the.'cou'rt to make such ft11ordl'r. The- counsel fordefendant has charge oithe puttiiig in of proofsori his side of the case, and he may, at defendant's'risk, offer an exhibit in one form or another. If it shoulcl turn ()utthat'the in lead-pencil Oil this exhibit becarrJe indistinct orohliterated, it wouldseetll to be a loss to the delendallt, rather than to the complainant. Motions Qellied. '
