 Getting Anxious

Phoenix, March At the morn ing session of the legislature today no action was had on the seggregs stion measure, which was submitted to contere nee committee yesterday. The | outcome of the same is difficult to for- see since both sides are insi-tent. The council is inclined to yield from its position and the matter amicably sd |. | justed in time to submit the sane to the .Governor before Monday. after which date the solons canno, pass measures over hIs veto should he care 10 pocket" same. The governor Is certain to veto the measure.
 Advocates of the substitute for the Duffy anti-gambling bill, which will y=Emit playing caEd- for drinks, are also anxious to have the bill pass the l house before Monday, as the position Oi the governor is plainly against the bill and unless sent to him before thst time he mag elect to exercise his pocket" perogstive and thus ef. fectually "kill'' same.

The bill will probably be brought up tomorrow for passage, and it is not unlikely that the same will be carried hy similar vote.
