All OF Two Vessels
Greek Passengers
May Yet Land Here
Normal Deportations Ex-
pected TO Take Care of
Excess of August Quota;
Owners Are Not Worried

The owners of the Greek steamship
King Alexander and the American
steamship Acropolis were not much
concerned yesterday regarding the pos
sioility OF deportation of few Greeks
on either vessel because Of an exceeded
immigration quota for September.
From advance information it was
learned that both vessels together
carry perhaps score OF Greek citi-
zenss over the quota Of Cos for Sep
TENDER. Both vessels run on the same
schedule from Levantine ports and
usually arrive here within ten or
twenty hours of each other.
The King Alexander came in ahead
OF time on Wednesday and sought an
anchorage off Sandy Hook until last
night, when it came into port to await
the arrival of the Federal officials.
The Acropolis, on schedule time, came
through the channel yesterday and
anchored for the night in Gravesend
Bay. As they are more or less normal
deportations, for reasons other than
overlapped quotas, it is generally be-
lieved that all the Greeks physically
and morally worthy of entering the
country will be permitted to land.
with ID saloon, 2S5 second cabin and
b3s steerage passengers, came to port
yesterday from Naples and Genoa. 1t
is thought that its Italian passenger
complement will be admitted under
the immigration quota for August
Among the passengers on the PIERCE
was DR.. Pasquale della Badia, of the
Bronx, who returned from Rome, where
he presented to Senator Schanzer a
full length portrait of Secretary
of State Charles E. Hughes. The por-
trait was painted by Joseph Trotta, Of
Flushing, and was the gift Of 100, 900
Italians in the United States.
Another traveller was Colonel Fed
erico Ciccodicola, aide de camp of the
King of Italy, who after the war was
appointed by the crown to be Italian
Minister to Abyssinia. He was ac-
companied by his nephew, Giuseppi di
MARITIME. They will spend several
months in this country.

Young Oysters ON Sale
lin Local Markets To-day

The opening of the oyster season
to-day will bring into local markets
the first young oysters to sse sold here
in the last four or five years.
Within a week or ten lays full
supply of good stock is expected to be
coming in, including a large amount
of young oysters. These come from
repopulated beds that had been COM
pletely fshed out, and the fact that
the experiments in Registering vast
areas Of oysterbeds, altogether 4,000
acres, had proved a success, makes
local dealers feel secure about the sup
ply for coming seasons. Prices will
range about the same as last year, &C
cording to one local dealer, and this
in spite Of the fact that the quality
of the oyster is even higher this year
than last.
The oysters which at the beginning
of the season are placed on local
markets come" mostly from Greenport
L. l.; Great South Bay, l.. l., and from
beds along the Rhode Island coast
Jamaica Bay will not furnish any
oysters this season, as the oyster beds
there have been ruled out by the

Vicious Animal When Lit
tie Girl Interviewed

If dogs are as grateful to their bene-
factors as they are reputed to be, one
of them should be the devoted servant
of little Brooklyn girl for the rest
of its life.
Policeman Henry Humers, Of the
Liberty Avenue station, Brooklyn, was
in the vicinity Of Lorraine and Drew
avenues last night when he saw a
black and white setter running amuck.
The dog viciously attacked little girl,
snapped at her and tore her dress.
The patrolman ran to the spot, and
the dog turned its. attention to him.
The policeman feIled the animal as it
jumped for his throat. Before he
could swing his club again the dog
bit him in the left leg. Humers
knocked the setter unconscious and
was about to shoot the animal when
the little girl pleaded with him not to
do it. The policeman consented to
take the dog to the police station for
examination for rabies.
