HEAVY CATCH OF HERRING.
Drift Net Fishermen Near Alex.
andria Unusually Successful.

While no unusually large number of
herring are reported as having been
caught in the big haul seines at the vari-
Gus fishing shores yesterday. the drift net
fishermen operating nets between Alex
andria and Fort Washington had the big
gest day of the season. and with gill nets
less than six hundred feet long four or
five hundred herring were caught on each
drift. A big school of the fish seem to
have gotten by the fishing shores and
were making their way TO the waters
about this city for the spawning season
when the OILERS got among them. Some
shad were also caught, but the catch of
them was not extra large.
For several days past there has been a
falling of in the receipts of both shad
and herring at the local fish wharf, but
the fishermen are looking for other runs
OF the fish at any time. So far this sea-
son the catch of herring in the Potomac
below this city has been small. due, it is
asserted TO the great number of nets
that stretch across the mouth of the riy-
er, which viii not let the fish come up It,

SENT BACK TO GERMANY.
Deportation Of Workman When
Criminal Record Was Disclosed.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.
BERLIN. April 20. 1912.
A German has just had a surprisingly
disasreeable experience Of the draconic
severity with which the emigrant law ia
administered In the United States. He
settled In New York two years ago with
his vito and family, and was earning q
living as q workman. Three weeks ago.
when returning home from work, he was
arrested. taken to Hlis Island and
shipped back to Germany on the next
steamer.
It seems that the man committed
robbery some years ago in Germany
and was punished for his crime by
fairly long term Of Imprisonment. After
leaving prison he managed to get work
in Berlin, married and finally emigrateds
Two years after his arrival the American
police received Q letter informing them
that the man had been criminal. They
made inquiries. discovered that the In
formation was correct. and without fur
Their ado. acting on the strict letter Of
the law, arrested their victim and de-
ported him. His wife and family have
been left in New York to shift for them
selves.

BERLIN. April 20. 1914
Capt. Hans Schomburgk. the well
known German big-game hunter who is
at present in the interior of Liberia. has
come across a dwarf elephant, which.
when fully developed. attains the size of
cow. He hopes to secure q living speci-
men to bring home He has also shot a
pygmy hippopotamus and captured an
other which he intends to bring alive 20
Europe.
The existence of these diminutiye ami
mails in Africa has been known for some
years, and the New York GEOLOGICAL
Gardens possess q specimen Of the dwarf
elephant, which was procured by Mesers
Hagenbeck. the well known firm in
search of live game. The little elephants
differ from their larger brethren in be-
ing particularly savage, and instead of
running away from strangers will charge
at them.
Offered to London Zoo.
A pygmy hippopotamus was recently Of
fered by Messrs. HaEenbeck to tho BOO
logical gardens at Regents Park, London,
but the price asked was too high for
acceptance. The small hippo Is more of
land animal than its .amphibsous
brother. who spends most Of his days in
the water, and 1t will as often be found
In the dense forests as in the rivers.
The causes which determine the size
OF these animals are as little understood
