ALLEGED BREACH OF THE DAIRY INDUSTRY ACT.
[VX tkleoraph.—press ASSOCIATION.) Wellington, Wednesday. In the Magistrate's Court W. H. Franklyn, of ■ Inglewood, was charged with having exported 223 boxes of butter not stamped as required by the Dairy Industry Aot. Mr. Thornton, Government produce grader at Wellington, stated he had learned the butter was about to be exported from Wellington. It had come from New Plymouth in the Takapuna, and was being transhipped at the port for Sydney. There was no brand on the boxes as required by the Dairy Industry Act, and no registered number. Witness wired to the defendant, who was the owner, telling him that if he desired witness would stamp the butter here. The butter, however, was not held back, ibut was exported without being stamped. He thereupon instituted proceedings. After the evidence of Thornton had been taken, the case was adjourned for a fortnight, in order that counsel might be instructed.
