On March 28, 1914, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan,?
acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the District Court of the?
United States for said district a libel for the seizure and condemnation of 30 tubes?
[tubs] and 70 cans of frozen egg product, approximating 3,000 pounds, remaining?
unsold in the original unbroken packages at Detroit, Mich., alleging that the product?
had been shipped from the State of Illinois into the State of Michigan, and charging?
adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.
It was alleged in the libel that the .product was shipped and consigned as frozen?
eggs, whereas, in truth and in fact, it was a substance which consisted in whole and?
in part of a filthy, decomposed, and putrid animal substance, in violation of section 7?
in the case of foods, paragraph 6, of the Food and Drugs Act.
On August 3,1914, no claimant having appeared for the property, judgment of con??
demnation and forfeiture was entered, and it was ordered by the court that the product?
should be destroyed by the United States marshal.
