On June 26, 1936, the United States attorney for the District of Colorado, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of nine cans of cream at Denver, Colo., alleging that the article had been shipped in various shipments in inter- state commerce on or about June 23, 1936, by Paul Conarty, from Weskan, Kans.; Harley Cochran, from Border, Wyo.; P. H. Burmood, from Lewellen, Nebr.; Ben Moulding, from Wheatland, Wyo.; John Quanz, from Phillipsburg, Kans.; R. C. Vinson, from Dumas, Tex.; J. H. Sewell, from Tahoka, Tex.; W. D. Raley, from PierceviUe, Kans.; and Adolph D. Eyer, from Syracuse, Kans.; and charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act. The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a filthy, decomposed, and putrid animal substance; and that a portion thereof contained kerosene or gasoline. On or about June 29, 1936, the Gold Coin Creamery Co., Denver, Colo., the consignee, having filed a statement confessing the allegations of the libel and having consented to the entry of a decree, judgment was entered ordering that the product be destroyed.
