Washington, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court an information against the Premier Salmon Co., a corporation, 
Seattle, Wash., alleging shipment by the defendant on or about August 11, 1936, 
from the Territory of Alaska into the State of Washington of a quantity of 
canned salmon which was adulterated in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.

ant, and it was sentenced to pay a fine of $100 and costs.
