cree   of  condemnation,  forfeiture,  and   destruction.     (P.   &  D.   No.
20818.    I. S. No. 4959-x.    S. No. E-5621.)
On January 25, 1926, the United States attorney for the District of Mary- 
land, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the Dis- 
trict Court of the United States for said district a libel praying seizure 
and condemnation of 24 cases of eggs, remaining in the original unbroken 
packages at Baltimore, Md., alleging that the article had been shipped by 
Weinberg Bros. & Co., from Chicago, Ill., and transported from the State 
of Illinois into the State of Maryland, and charging adulteration in violation 
of the food and drugs act. The article was labeled in part: "Quality Stamper 
Brand." 
;
Adulteration of the article was alleged in the libel for the reason that it 
consisted wholly or in part of a filthy, decomposed, or putrid animal 
substance.
On March 1, 1926, no claimant having appeared for the property, judgment 
of condemnation and forfeiture was entered, and it was ordered by the court 
that the product be destroyed by the United States marshal.
W. M. JARDINE, Secretary of Agriculture.
