230. Adulteration of salt herring.    U. S. v. 19 Kegs and 22 Kegs of Herring.
Default   decree   of   condemnation  and   destruction.     (F.   D.   C.   No.   861. 
Sample Nos. 74775-D, 74776-D.)
On November 4, 1939, the United States attorney for the District of Minnesota 
filed a libel against 41 kegs, each containing 110 pounds of herring, at Duluth, 
Minn., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or
about October 22, 1939, by Sam Severtson, from Washington Harbor, Isle Royale, 
Mich.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in 
part of a filthy substance.
On December 27, 1939, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- 
tion was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
