Vessels to Bring
 Coal to New England
The Only Method of Provid- ing Immediate Relief and Keeping Industries in Op- eration.

New York, July 19.-Rai1roads, in their effort to meet the New England coal shortage, are to be aided at once by coastwise coal shipments from Atlantic ports, it was agreed at con- ference here today between the bitum- inous coal mine operators and repre- sentatives of United States fuel ad- ministrators of the New. England states. This is the only method, the conference decided, of providing imz mediate relief and averting the immi- nent shutdown of many industrles.
 "sThere will be plenty of coal for New England" said E. Bradley, of Dundon, W. Va, vice president Of the National Coal Association. Tt is all a matter of transportation. The rail roads together with the shipment of coal in vessels from tidewater will car ry the coal The operators are ready to mine all the coal New Eliglai.d wants"
 At the conference representing the New England states were James J. Storrow, fuel administrator of Massa- chusetts; A. T. Slayton, fuel admins trator of New Hampshire; H. J. M. Jones of Vermont; E. R. JoseIyn, sec retary to the fuel administrator of Maine, and Thomas w. Russell fuel administrator of Connecticut.

OPENING OF HEARINGS ON
 TRANSPORTATION AND FUEL

New York, July 19.-First hearings of the United States senate special com mittee on reconstruction and production, which will begin here tomorrow. win bear upon transportation and fuel nee essary for general industry and con- struction, it was announced tonight. Sen ator William NJ. Calder. of New York, is chairman of the committee.
 Witnesses representing the fuel ad- minstrations of New England and the northwest will be, heard first Following the taking of testimony from these wit nesses, those representing the Ameri- can Wholesale Coal Association, Nation al Coal Association. the carriers and the Interstate Commerce Commission will be held.
 Communications and documents receiv- ed by the committee. it was said, reveal that in many quarters the transporta- ton shortage is being blamed on the ex- traordinary exportation of coal which Is now being carried on through docking facilities said to have been primarily designed for domestic use.
 While ample coastwise shipping is available, it was said, the lack of dock ing facilities curtails it's use and as a rsult' coastwise shipping is in compara- tive idleness. In the meantime, an un- usual burden is being thrown on the railroads at time when the shortage of rolling stock is earsag concern and many months may elapse before the i'm paired railroad facilities; can be restor, ed. -.
 Further evidence submitted to the | committee, it said. shows that the cur. tainIment of exportation and the throw ing of coastwise shipping into ust would have a tendency to relieve the shortage of rail transportation and ma terially lower the price of coal through out the United States, which has risen in sympathy with the high export price This high export price, the committed has been told, is due in part to the fact that Great Britain is now restrict ing the exportaton of coal to less than one-half hte usual amount.
 With the use of coastwise shipping railroad transportation facilities now serving the export coal trade might be used by the general industry of the country as well as for the relief of the housing shortage which must take place during the months of July, August and September in order to be effective this year, the committee has been informed

TO DISTRIBUTE SKIPPING
 AMONG VARIOUS PORTS

Washington, July 19.-Monoply of shipping held by few large Ameri- can seaports is to be brought before the Shipping Board and the shipping bus mess distributed among the various ports of the country, Chairman Ben son declared tonight in an address at the opening session of the School of Pan- American and Foreign Commerce.
 tIn planning steamship service, under the new transportation act, the board proposes to break up the monopoly here tofore held bya a few Atlantic seaports,' said Chairman Benson. Services will be maintained at American ports with 8 view to relieving congestion of rail- roads and bringing to the seaports nearest .the pointof consumption. Mon opoly of shipping heretofore held by large seaports has retarded the de- ve1opment of the merchant marine. The bad facilities for loading and discharg- ing of vess els and the spirit of indif- ference of many commercial interests have done much to curb proper growth of the shipping interests in this country By logically spreading. shipping the spirit of competition will be arosed among the various seaports of this land to the advantage of all"

Burton NH Handle Shamrock " Today
Decision Reached by Lipton- Would Not Talk of Who Would be at Wheel Beyond Today.

Sandy Hook. N. J., July 1s-Captain William P. Burton will be at the helm of Shamrock " when she races again to- morrow against the American defender Resolute for the Americas cup.
 This was the decision reached tonight by Sir Thomas and his yachting advisers after a day spent in conference over the handling of the challenger in the first two matches.
 Captain Burton will be at the wheel tomorrow, I understand" said Sir Thom- as after the conference. After that I cannot say, and. of course, I will not talk about it'
 Gossip aboard Sir Thomas steam yacht Victoria had it that Captain Burton had asked for another chance, but the Irish baronet would not discuss this phase and Captain Burton could not be reached.
 With seamanship counting so much in a contest such as the Americas cup race, in which the contending crafts are calcu- lated to represent the best in American and British construction, the question of who would handle Shamrock transcended all other talk aboard the racing fleet at anchor today in the Horseshoe.
 From Thursday, when Shamrock found herself on the line at the start and had to recross. until the present, yachting ex- perts have been severely criticiZing Cap tain Burton's work, and during Saturdays race comment aboard the Victoria was strongly in favor of Captain Charles Francis Adams, 2d. on the Yankee sloep. Resolute still has three victories to win if she is successfully to defend the cup, whereas Shamrock needs but two more.
 Regatta rules call on alternate racing days for windward and leeward course of fifteen miles to a leg and triangular course with legs of ten miles each. but as Saturdays race has to be resailed, to- morrow's contest also will be over a tri angle.
 Saturday the first leg paralleled rhe Long Island. shore, with the second leg stretching toward the Jersey coast end the third back to the Ambrose channel lghtship, where the start was made. To- morrow, however, this course 'i,ubtl2ss will be changed, as the whole question of where the yachts will race depends on the direction, of the wind Usually the race committee makes every effort to have the first leg beat to windwald.

MIGHT CAUSE 4 GENERAL WALKoUT OF TRoLLEYMEN

Hartford, July 19.-A general walkout of trolleymen throughout the state is ex- pected to ensue if Bridgeport trolleys are taken out of service, the men here say, owing to the agreement with the com pany that if route is shortened the men affected will not lose any pay because of it. If routes are completely discontin- ued the same condition applies, they say, and unless the Bridgeport trolleymen re- ceive full pay during the time the cars are not in operation, none of the men in the state will work.
 No concerted action on the part of the trolleymen to boycott merchants who pa tronize the jitneys has been planned in this city, according to we'll informed em- ployes of the Connecticut company. Some action of this sort has been taken in New Britain, it is alleged and the possi- bility of it's spread to Hartford was con sidered by outsiders, going so far as to the printing of the report that it had been inaugurated This,. however, the men deny.
