1. ““better and cleaner-cut practice to require a complainant to set up alleged new infringements in a supplemental bill. Thereupon, if it should be found that the additional types contain only colorable departures from the adjudged infringing type, the decree for an injunction and an accounting and the order of reference could be extended to cover them specifically; or, if the changes should appear to be so radical that the pending suit ought not to be cumbered and delayed by practically a new issue, the supplemental bill could be dismissed, with leave to the complainant to begin an independent suit. We deem this the better practice, because, if an. accounting before the master is extended to devices that have not been adjudged by the court to be infringements, a very great and unnecessary consumption of time and burden of costs.may be imposed upon the.parties.””
