GOVERNOR OF NEVADA
CALLS LEGISLATURE.
IN REPLY TO REQUEST OF PRESI-
DENT ROOSEVELT FOR
ACTION.

Reno, New, Dec. 3O.-A special ses-
sion of the Nevada legislature will be
called by Governor John Sparks. The
governor says that he will issue the
proclamation today and that the date
of converting will be in about two
weeks.
The call will be made at the request
Of President Roosevelt, who has mott.
fed Nevada's governor that such &C
ton must be taken or troops now at
Goldtieid would be removed. Notifica.
ton of the decision to assemble the
legislature has been transmitted, Gov.
ernor Sparks says, to Washington.
GoldfieId Is Assured Peace.
Goldtield. New, Dec. 80. = The
announcement made here that Gov.
ernor Sparks has telegraphed word to
President Roosevelt that he will call
the Nevada legislature together in spe-
cial session as soon as possible has put
an entirely new aspect on the labor
situation here. At least portion of
the federal troops will, it is thought,
remain in Goldfield for an indefinite
period and all fear of any serious dis.
turbance growing out Of the dispute
has vanished. 1t is not at all certain
that the legislature will act in &C.
cordance with the wishes of Governor
Sparks, but the calling of the special
session will have the effect of keeping
federal troops in Goldf1eld for several
weeks and will make the possibility OF
serious trouble more remote.
The governor has asked many prom
inent citizens of Nevada for an ex.
preston of opinion regarding the spe
cial session and has received only ia.
vorable replies.
The Esmeralda county grand jury
has refused the appointment of a
board of arbitration to attempt settle

prominent as member of the mine
owners association, is member of the
grand jury. The governor will give at
least 10 days notice of the converting
of the legislature and the call will be
issued Monday or Tuesday.

cate his office, and Sparks said today
the refusal had been received at the
