his purpose of calling an extra session
OF congress not later than April 15, in.
stead OF waiting six months after he
assumes the presidency on March 4,
for the regular session to convene,
President-elect Wilson took the first
important step Friday towards carry
ing out his pledges to the people.
AS he issued his statement the pres
ident-elect remarked:
The list of members of congress
and prominent Democrats throughout
the country who had expressed them
selves on the subject showed that the
sentiment in favor of the calling of an
extra session was widespread might
say almost unanimous. The extra ses.
sion will have the advantage of giving
us an early start towards effecting the
reforms to which the Democratic party
ls pledged"
simultaneously with the issuance of
his statement the president-elect gave
permission to say that he is to spend
his vacation in Bermuda. He sailed
on the steamship Bermudian from the
pier of the Quebec Steamship COM
pany at West Tenth street and North
river at two o'clock Saturday after
noon. The Bermudian was booked SOL
Idly and the president-elect was as
sured by the officials of the line that
here were no politicians among the
passengers. The president-elect will
spend four weeks on the island, re-
turning to New York December 16. He
was accompanied by Mrs. Wilson and
the Misses Jessie and Eleanor Wilson.
Miss Margaret Wilson, the elder
daughter, remained in New York to
continue her study of music.
Governor Wilson has leased little
cottage on the island from an Ameri- |
can. He requests that it's exact loca-
ton be kept a secret lest he be bonn
barded by letters from office seekers
and politicians. He intends that this
shall be a real vacation, free from
work and worry. The governor will
spend much Of his time bicycling and
horseback riding.
