be called. He said that certain legis-
lation was absolutely necessary, and
that a great deal of uncertainty and
uneasiness would be felt until some
definite announcement is made by the
Governor.
James D. Phelan added that the
bankers of San Francisco were also
very anxious that special session
oe the Legislature should be convened,
THE SPECIAL SESSION.
Governor Pardee replied that it was
his present intention to have a special
session, but he had not entirely made
UP his mind in the matter, and did not
propose to take any hasty action. He
said that the Sacramento Bar Associa-
ton had passed resolution declaring
that a special session was now neces-
sary, and while he did not propose to
be unduly influenced by any resolu-
tions, he was still going to give the
matter the most thorough considera-
ton before he took the final step. He
added that before the Legislature is
called there should be some definite
assurance that legislation most neces-
sary would be enacted
Mayor Schmitz closed the discussion
by making formal call upon the Gov
ernor for a special session Of the Leg
islature.
Garret McEnerney told the Governor
that there was some uncertainty
among the lawyers and bankers as to
whether the chief executive was for
mally declaring a legal holiday day
by day. The Governor assured him
that he was taking all the necessary
action and further that he would give
some days notice before disseminating
the declaration Of holidays, so that the
lawyers and bankers and merchants
might feel certain that they would not
fail in any Of their legal and business
obligations.
