.StOwaway China Crabs
 Multiply in German Water

Hamburg, Germany, July l.--Iid- ing as stowaways all the way from China 10 Germany. brood of crabs known 10 the scientist as 'eriocheir," has settled down in the Elbe river and is enriching this stream by a hitherto unknown species of fauna. The crabs fastened themselves to the bottom of ships plying between Ham, burg and China, in the opinion of Ger man zoologists. and are here begin- ming to multiply. Fifteen specimens thus far have been discovered.
 The crab in question is character ized by long hair on the shears. A group of fishermen caught several of these queer looking animals in their nets and took them 10 the state zoo- logical institute, where they were identified as d type found only in Chinese waters
 German scientists are delighted over the find and hope that "eriocheir" will in due time become name familiar to every German school boy.
