FISHERMEN THROW THEM BACK. LONDON, Sept. 7. During the last month or two, many sharks have been caught at the fishing grounds off flic west coast of .Scotland. German fishing steamers have brought in most of these, but the crews, who have the sharks as a perquisite, have been disgusted when the fish realised only a shilling each and any. comingup in the nets are cast back into the sea.
