On November 15, 1940, the United States attorney for the Northern District 
of Illinois filed a libel (amended January 22, 1941) against 285 boxes of 
whiting at Chicago, Ill., alleging that the article had been shipped on September 
17, 1940, by Gloucester Seafoods Corporation from Gloucester, Mass.; and 
charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a 
decomposed substance.
On January 28, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
