Kenealy.    Plea of guilty.    Fine, $10.     (F. & D. No. 261-c.)
On November 11, 1914, the United States attorney for the District of Colum??
bia, acting upon a report of the health officer of said. District, authorized by?
the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the police court of the District aforesaid?
an information against William P. Kenealy, Washington, D. C, alleging the sale?
by said defendant within the jurisdiction of the court, and in violation of the?
Food and Drugs Act, of a quantity of a product called " Kenealy's Bromalgine,"?
which was misbranded. The product was labeled: "Kenealy's Bromalgine A?
Brain Soother. Alcohol 25? Headache, Neuralgia, Nervousness, and Brain?
Fatigue. Guarantee Positively contains no Opium, Morphine, Cocaine, Chloral,?
or other injurious drugs."
Misbranding of the product was alleged in the information for the reason?
that the statement in the label thereon was false and misleading, and the?
product was labeled so as to deceive and mislead the purchaser; that the false?
and misleading statement was as follows, to wit, that said drug contained no?
injurious drug, whereas, in truth and in fact, the said drug did contain an?
injurious drug, to wit, antipyrine.
On November 11, 1914, the defendant entered a plea of guilty' to the informa??
tion, and the court imposed a fine of $10.
