Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Both patents of L. Otto P. Meyer, known as the "tin foil" and the "oil" patents, for improved methods of vulcanizing hard rubber compound, embossed and plain surfaces, are valid; the re-issued patent covers no more than the original invention. It is also adjudged that the respondents have infringed both patents; that an injunction be issued, and an order of reference to account.
