INJUNCTION HAL7S TRANSFER OF SHIPS Court Order Holds Up Sale of Shipping Board CaIif.-
 Orient Line

Washington, April s.-A tenpo-- ary injunction blocking sale of the shipping boards California Orient line was issued today by Justice Hitz of the District Of Columbia supreme court.
 The injunction was issued on ne. fition of the Pacific Mail company Which now operates the line and which was an unsuccessful bidder for it's purchase against the Dollar interests.
 In it's petition the Pacific Mail company contended that the boad's decision to sell the five vessels to the Dollar company, decided on after bitter row among board members and by majority of one, was H. legal for many reasons.
 The court proceedings may not only delay indefinitely consummation of the sale to the Dollar interests, but probably will submit for the first time to judicial construction the language of the merchant marine act of 1920. The only injunction pro- ceeding against ship sale previous ly brought was that of William Ram dolph Hearst, winch blocked the sale of German ships seized during the war, and in that instance a some- what different question.

 Every coast guard vessel attached to section base, destroyer and life saving bases in this vicinity has &C., counted for its movements on the fatal night according to Commander Young, and it is revealed that none was near the vicinity of the zone three miles south of Race Rock light at the hour of the mysterious gun assault on the government craft as she was pursuing what was believed to have been rum runner.

REMINGTON RESIDENCE
 IS SAVED BY N. B. F. }. New Pumper Given Test When Old Maxim
 Machine Fails

| A single line of hose, 300 feet long and stretching uphill from a brock was the sole implement with which the New Britain fire de- pertinent fought a fire at the home Eof Salvatore Curobba on the Rocky Eia sroad in Newington this morn ling, but The new La France pumper
 stationed at headquarters proved
 wonderful" according to Chief Will liam J. Noble and enabled the flre-
 men to save the rear part of the
 house after the whole building ap- peared doomed. The front part of
 the house, which is known as the John Webster place and was at one time a show place, was totally de- stroyed.
 A woman milking the cows dis covered the blaze and a still alarm was sent in at 6:06 o'clock and brought Co. No. to the scene, but the Maxim bumper failed to work and call for the new engine was sent. This arrived at the fire after record run and soon had a line Of nose playing on the building in spite Of the unfavorable conditions, Int Newington fire truck arrived shortly atter o'clock, having been delayed because the driver could not be To- cited.
 The building was a two-and-a-haIt story brick and wood structure, the brick front being a total loss, while the wooden Il" and the barn. which contained 6S head of cattle, were saved by the prompt work of the New Britain firemen. As the fire was outside of the Jurisdiction of the local department. Chief Noble did not estimate the damage. The building was insured for s4,0oo.

Promises to Punish Shean

"Shean ought to be punished and l assure you. gentlemen of the iurv. that he will be and adequately" the states attorney said in his closing argument.
 Shean was in one Of the ante rooms adjoining the court room and had an opportunity of hearing the lawyers in their final pleas. He came to the court room door on more than one occasion to nod and smile at his sweetheart, who has been present daily since the trial began.
 There was some adverse comment about the court room regarding Shean's presence in the building as 1t was known that all testimony was In and that he was not needed.
 Spectators were unable to under stand why he, self confessed burg lar and an accomplice of one of the worlds most notorious criminals, was permitted to roam about with such apparent freedom instead of being confined to the prisoners pen where men accused of crime are in- variably kept.
 General Public Excluded
 Conditions at the Hartford county building this morning were very orderly owing to the instructions issued from the bench 10 Sheriff Ed ward Dewey yesterday. No one was to ascend the building steps except those who had passes signed by the judge, the states attorney or defense counsel and accredited mem bers Of the press and the bar.
 An instance of the strict precau- lions being taken to insure the jury from seeing newspapers was evident this morning when Deputy Sheriff Harry Comstock warned all those who were reading newspapers to hide them from the jury when the were ordered to take their places in the jury box.
 Expectations before the trial was resumed with the conclusion of Judge Groehrs summation. were that a verdict would be reached to- day.
 Chapman appeared in the prison CTS pen looking well satnsfied with the turn the case had taken yester- day and as the. moment for the opening of the session arrived, he glanced al the clock several times to see the hour of ten approach.

 Donors Statement
 The text of the physician's an- nouncement, made public by acting Secretary Davis at the war depart ment, follows:
 Early in the morning of April i, Secretary Weeks had thrombosis of one of the small branches of the middle cerebral, artery, producing a weakness of the muscles of the left arm. No other symptoms have re- suited. Considering the rapid im- provement he has made in the last 4s hours, Mir. Weeks should be out in short time" s~
 Mir. Weeks. who is approaching his sixty-fifth birthday. has not been in robust health for some years. He returned to his office early this week after a two weeks stay in Florida, and subsequent visits to other southern states. He appeared at the time of his return to be enjoying improved health.
 In the interval since he returned he has been exercising his functions as secretary of war. Papers dealing with important war department business still were being sent to his residence today for his considera- ton.
 Because of his health, however, the secretary in agreeing last month to continue in the cabinet, did 50 with the understanding that he would return to private life if his physical condition at any time required & lessing of physical ex- ertion.
 Thrombosis Is an obstruction of the blood circulation by a clot, which in this case apparently has lodged in the brain. A stoppage of any proportions there would have immediate fatal results, and even in a milder form might cause paralysis. ~f
 Although these alarming symp- toms had not yet developed, the secretary was urged months ago by members of his family to retire to private life. During the latter part of President Hardings administra- ton he was under care of physicians who ordered him to refrain from exercise of an intensive nature, pro- hihiting even his customary golf games and laying out for him a rigid diet.
 Under this treatment his general | condition showed improvement and | he was rarely absent from his desk l at the war department. The im- proyement was of such a satisfac- tory nature that he was encouraged i to discard for the time being the | idea of giving up his place in the 1 cabinet. s,
