On or about September 20, 1909, the Columbia Desiccated Egg?
Company, of Chicago, 111., shipped from the State of Illinois to the?
State of New York 1,200 pounds ol desiccated egg product. Analysis?
of samples of this product made by the Bureau of Chemistry, United?
States Department of Agriculture, showed it to be adulterated within?
the meaning of the Food and Drugs Act of June 30, 1906. As it?
appeared from the findings of the analyst and report made that the?
said shipment was liable to seizure under section 10 of the act, the?
Secretary of Agriculture reported the facts to the United States attor??
ney for the Southern District of New York.
In due course a libel was filed against the said 1,200 pounds of desic??
cated egg product charging adulteration, in that it was in whole or in?
part filthy, putrid, and decomposed, and praying seizure, condemna??
tion, and forfeiture.
On April 7, 1910, the case came on for hearing and the court ren??
dered a decree of condemnation and forfeiture and ordered that the?
goods be destroyed.

Act of June 30, 1906.
