DEVELOP PMENT OF
 MERCHANT MARINE E
Establishment of America First Policy In
 Shipping.

Washington, April 2S- Establish ment of an Amerfca-fir policy for the development of the American merchant marine is provided in a bill drafted as a substitute for the House merchant marine bill by the Senate Commerce Sub-fommittee and made public today by Chairman Jones, who plans to report it to the full conit- tee tomorrow.
 Coastwise shipping, the bill pro- vides, must be entirely American owned, while 75 per cent of the stock of corporations engaged in foreign trade must be held by American citI- zens. Sale of American ships to for eign interests would be prohibited by the bill without approval of the Shipping Board, which the act ere ates.
 The bill also would prohibit the fn- terstate commerce commission from exercising authority already existing, to grant preferential rail and water freight rates on exports or imports
 as we'll as passenger rates unless American owned vessels were used Upon the boards recommendations where American owned ocean trans portation facilities are inadequate the commission would be authorized by the bill, however, to suspend this section.

Supply Of
 Now Shrinking
None Arriving in City Either By Boat or
 Rail.

The supply of coal in the local coal yards is dwindhng very fast and the dealers are refusing to supply other than. their regular customers and are furnishing coal to those only when absolutely necessary to keep them going.
 No coal is arriving in the city either by raA or boat
 The strike of the swdtchmen in the New York district has cut off all ship ments by the railroad and the strike of the crews of the tug boats plying in New York 1larfbor shuts off the supply which usually arrives by boat through the Sound.
 The large tub R. Grafton Benson, rived in the harbor last might and left one tank boat with oil at the dock of the Miller Lumber company. The two other tank barges in the tow were consigned to New London but the tug was unable to proceed last night on account of the easterfy gale which kicked up a big sea on ths Sound. It was with great difficulty that the tug was able to bring her tow into harbor without the loss 'o1 the TO barrels of oil which was on the : deck of one of the barges.
 After vainly trying to obtain a SUD- ply of coal at the locaa yards the cap i tain lleft this noon with his barges fol New London.
 The freight steamer Sagamor'e bound for Providence put into the ha1Ibor last night on account of the weather.

Rev. John }. Murray Is
 COnSeCrated Bishop

Hartford, Conn, April 2S-With the most solemn and rituahstic impress. iveness of the Roman Catholic Church, Rt. Rev. John G. Murray, late chancellor of the diocese, now titular bishop of F1avius, was conse- crated auxiliary bishop of the dio- cese of Hartford, in St. Joseph s church, today. The assem blaze on this occasion was of large numbers, it oveTfowing the capacity of the great edifice as was the case when Rt. Rev. John J. Milan was conse- crated to the bishopric ten years ago. The services and ceremonies closely approxinated those of the latter oc- casion. They adhered to the order laid down in the liturgy of the Church. As the services of consecra- ton could not be held in Rome, or in the See to which Rt. Rev. Bishop p Murray is credited it necessarily was held in the cathedral of the diocese in which he had so long served as priest and chancellor.
 Although the cathedral service at 1O:30 a. m. was a public one the great number of priests there, en- bracing practically all in the diocese, the members of various orders both cleric and nuns, the visiting clergy and Iaity guests, filed a considerable portion of the seating capacity.
