DENIES THE STORIES
 PRINTED ABOUT HER
Says She Was Merely Away on a Visit
 With Friends.

Miss Rhoda Beebe. alleged to have eloped from Mesa several weeks ago returned yesterday and is living quietly at her home here On the same train but not in company, with Miss Beebe. was Ross Daley. brother of James Daley who figured prominently as the man in the case.
 Miss Beebe enters an emphatic mega . tion to the statements widely circulat- ed concerning the Daley affair.
 T went to Mexico by myself" she replied yesterday in answer to a ques- tion. and no one else was connected with my absence. I paid my own way. and spent my time visiting with friends in JuareZ.
 Tt is quite untrue that any relation existed between MT. Daley and myself. in spite of various statements to that effect which have been given to the public"
 Were you subjected to any sur- veillance on the part of the authorities while you were in Juarez?' she was asked.
 Well. a policeman did come to me and ask a number of questions" she admitted. but beyond that there was nothing said or done"
 Miss Beebe stated that she might have stayed in Mexico indefinitely. for d good position was proffered her. But she rather preferred to return to Mesa.
 Mamma wanted me to come back here and live at home." she said in con- clusion. and so I came. l simply went on visit and came back again. That's all there is to it.

STAnObGE WILL NOT
 HAVE 10 PAY WATKINS
Jury Decides the Latter Has Been
 Fully Reimbursed.

jury chosen to decide the respect i've merits of the claims of the plaintiff and defendants in the suit instituted by H. C. Watkins against Standage and Son for the collection of wages claimed to be due the plaintiff. found for the defendants at the end of a long hearing Thursday afternoon in Justice Irwin's court
 The case arose over a disagreement as to the amount of wages due Watkins from the defendants who carry on a contracting business. Watkins had been engaged to haul sand for the con- tractors it being the understanding ap- parently that he was to be paid only when the contractors received their money.
 Watkins did his work. and in the course of events the time for settle ment came. Then arose the difficulty. Watkins claimed S31.70 for his labor. The contractors thought s2s.3S was about right, and eventually settled for that amount. Watkins, however. was far from satisfied with this adjudica- tion, and entered suit for the balance with the above result.
 Prior to the hearing. it is stated. the Standages tried to settle the case out of court by offering to pay the disputed sum if Watkins would pay the costs which had accrued up to that time. The offer was refused. Attorneys Dough- erty and Pomeroy appeared for the plaintiff in the suit. and Attorney Sil- verthorn for the defendants.

porary nomination under the condition
. that he withdraw when a candidate
should be agreed upon, place his with
