On March 6, 1941, the United States attorney for the Western District of 
Virginia filed libels against 215 boxes and 83 loose cartons of raisins at Lynch- 
burg, Va., and 93 boxes of raisins at Staunton, Va., alleging that the article 
had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about September 25, 1940, by El 
Mar Packing Co. from Stockton, Calif.; and charging that it was adulterated in 
that it consisted in whole or in part of a filthy and decomposed substance. The

Three Crown Malaga Layer Raisins."
On June 2 and October 27, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgments of
