On February 1, 1927, the United States attorney for the Southern District of New York, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the District Court of the United States for said district a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 545 cans of frozen eggs, remaining in the original unbroken packages at New York, N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped by the Storer Bros. Co., from Ada, Ohio, December 10, 1926, and transported from the State of Ohio into the State of New York, and charging adulteration in viola- tion of the food and drugs act. It was alleged in the libel that the article was adulterated, in that it con- sisted in part of a filthy, decomposed, and putrid vegetable substance. On February 16, 1927, the Storer Bros. Co., Ada, Ohio, claimant, having admitted the allegations of the libel and having consented to the entry of a decree, judgment of condemnation and forfeiture was entered, and it was ordered by the court that the product be released to the said claimant upon payment of the costs of the proceedings and the execution of a bond in the sum of $5,000, conditioned in part that it be salvaged and the bad portion denatured or destroyed. W. M. JARDINE, Secretary of Agriculture.
