Hartford, Conn.,, Sept. 29.--In refus- ing to call a special session of the leg 1slature to act upon or consider tLe federal amendment granting suffrage to women. Governor Marcus H. Hol- comb tonight issued this formal state ment to The Associated Press:
 At the hearings on September 23 on applications to call a special ses- sion of the general assembly several reasons were urged. One was to act on the trolley situation and other matters that were considered at the last session. Our constitution pro Vides that The general assembly shall adjourn not later than the first We'd nesday after the first MlsSday in June following it's organization" If a spe- cial session may be called to act up on matters considered at the regular session it would be possible to have practically a continuous session which would conflict with our constitution.
 Another, and the principal. reason urged was to permit the present mem bers of the general assembly to ratify the federal suffrage amendment; and in aid of this petitions were present. ed signed by considerable majority of each branch of the general assem- bly, few requesting the calling Of a special session to consider but a clear ma ajority to ratify' the federal suffrage amendment. It is doubtful II those favoring woman suffrage would have requested the calling of special session if it had appeared that a ma jority of the present members of the general assembly were opposed to wo- man suffrage: and it is obvious that the opponents to woman suHrase would not be convinced that they had had "their day in court" when a ma jority of the members of the court had announced in advance Nlat the de- cision would be against them.
 There is sharp division in sentl. ment in this state on the question of w\nan suffrage which should be de- cided by a vote of the people of the
