:. On October 4, 1941, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Missouri filed a libel against 151 cases, each containing 24 bottles of tomato 
catsup at St. Louis, Mo., alleging that the article had been shipped on or about 
September 4, 1941, by Stokely Bros. & Co., Inc., from Indianapolis, Ind.; and 
charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in part of a 
decomposed substance. The article was labeled in part: (Bottles) "Stokely's 
Finest Tomato Catsup Net Weight 14 Oz."
On October 31, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- 
tion was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
