maining unsold in the original unbroken packages and in possession 
of the Chesapeake Steamship Co., Baltimore, Md., alleging that the 
product had been shipped on or about October 23, 1912, from the 
State of North Carolina into the State of Maryland, and charging 
adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act. The product
