PICKETT AND
 MASSEY SCORE
Young Phoenicians' Joint M usical Composition, Arizona Ride,' One of Most Tuneful Rags Pub liShed in Recent Times

Among the many taking rag dance" tunes that have been composed and placed on the market lately, there is none to eXceu the Arizona Ride," a joint composition from the pens of two local boys-Ben L. Massey and Arthur Pickett Pickett wrote the words to the skit and Massey the music, and between them they have found a combination that is SWingy taking and altogether tuneful.
 The words of the song are typical of Arizona, in that they purport to describe how the Arizona Ride" a new rag dance is the popular rage in the new state According to d story told by some poor fellow who has had to go back east after being out here. The words, however, are incomplete without the entrancing music. To say that it's great is to use an often expressed description of it.
 Already several hundred copies of the song have been sold locally and already there is beginning to be a demand for it outside the state From the appearance of things the young Phoenix composers have struck pay dirt in their first musical venture. They promise more and equally good compositions in the course of a short time.

Certain of Retirement.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 15.-While of ficial information from Mexico City is meager, the Washington government maintained tonight confidence that Provisional President Huerta will soon be eliminated. Steady pressure through diplomatic channels. the financial blockade and the practical certainty that the embargo on arms will be lifted unless Huerta yields is expected to force his retirement. How soon this will occur no official would predict. Neither at the White House, or state department was there any disposition to regard seriously the statement is sued from the National Palace in Mex ico City that "in view of Carranza's re- pudiation of any form of mediation by or alliance with the United States, Hu- erta can do no less than join his ex- presson of patriotic sentiment and maintain unaltered his dignified atti- tude toward Washington"
 While on the surface this gave the impression that the United States had met d rebuff in the diplomatic camps of both Mexican factions. administra- tion officials conversant with the de- tails of the inner situation construed it merely as an attempt to meet tempo ~ on Huerta by his close friends. The declara tiOn that Carranza will not ac- cept the mediation of the United Station, reiterated by Huerta, caused no concern as the United States main- tains it never offered to mediate Car ranza's utterances are not misunder- stood in Washington, for inasmuch as he has appealed for the lifting of the embargo on arms and special envoy has gone to his headquarters to discuss the situation. the necessity of showing his followers he does not intend to sur render the sovereignty of the country by negotiations with foreign government will be taken into full consideration here.
 The United States likewise realizes that Carranza can not enter into com promise negotiations with Huerta or any group surrounding him. For this reason chiefly, Wilson has insisted throughout upon the elimination of the Huerta corterie as q necessary first step for peace, though he always con- tended the Mexcans must compose the situation themselves. Huerta's eXpres- sion on the hells of Carranza's utter ance is regarded here as an effort to show no less patriotism than the con stitutionalist chief at this time. The

DESPERADOES
 TALK TOO LOUD
Plan to Rob Postoffice at Peoria - Are Overheard by Young Fellow, Who Telephones the Officers Now in Jail

Because a young fellow overheard four toughs planning to hold up the Peoria postoffice and general store. and had presence of mind enough to telephone to Constable John Rudd at Glendale, those same four men are now in the county jail, having been brought in the same time the two Peterson killers were brought down from Congress. John Rudd boarded the train at Peoria with his quarry and came in on the same train with Constable Murphy and Deputies Sears and COnnOrs on Friday night.
 The name of the young fellow who overheard the plans of the WOuld-be desperadoes could not be learned, but the story he told over the phone was sufficiently earnest to carry weight with the Glendale constable, so he set out after the fellows and caught them almost in the act of entering in their hands.
 The names of the four fellows are John Bass, Francisco Castro, $. c. Pearce and D. Bogard It was thought for awhile yesterday that perhaps they belonged to the same bunch as the two Peterson killers, but this be- lief has since been abandoned. The box car in which the four fellows camped was found just as the young informer said it would be It was evident that they had broken into the box car in addition to their other stunt. They are now awaiting exam ination before Judge Johnston

 The meeting of the house of deputies reflected the chaotic conditions brought about by the dissolution of the old con- gress. It was expected that Minister of the Interior Manued Garza Adalpe would preside. but opposition developed among the deputies and Gonzalo Zuni- ga, AdaIpc's secretary, appeared in his stead. Little parliamentary form fol- lowed, different groups calling differ ent men the chairman.
 Don't talk to us of law said Sal vadOr Diaz Miren, editor of the Im- parcial and an ardent supporter of Huerta. We are greater than the law The country is in a delicate position and it is our duty to proceed in the most expeditions manner. Enrique Paz was appointed. without ballotting and the present body will serve until the formal Inauguration on November 20. The roll of deputies included all the members of Huertas staff his chief aide, the minister of war, the private secretary to the president, large num- Der of men closely identified with other government officials and many detec- tives. There were no disorders and no troops, but policemen and plainclothes men were everywhere in evidence. The absence of Catholic senators proves the Catholic party has washed it's hands of the Huerta government
 Very, very good news. This is our victory" was the expression of Fran cisco Escudero. minister of exterior re lations in Carranza's cabinet when in formed of Huerta's failure to organize a completely new Mexican senate.

Naval Holiday Endorsed.

| Naval programmes announced by the

and the entrance into the building of
Dreadnoughts by nations which have not

concerted action. IL it is not hastened
by appeals for the peaceful settlement
Of national differences the day is not far
distant when the growing burden OF taxa

perditures will call halt.

Wants 1t by 1920 and Would

LACK OF DEFINITE
POLICY CRITICISED
Admiral Says That Our Present

Lead to War.

Washington, Nov. So.-Admiral Dewey
views of the naval programme the Uniteu
| States should adopt If it is to guard us
international policies In the family OF
nations are transmitted to President
Wilson with the report OF secretary
Daniels.
The admiral's views, which embody the
recommendations of the Navy General
Board. are that the feet should consist
Of forty-eight battleships Of the line be-
fore 1920 II possible and that the building
programme should begin this year with
four Dreadnoughts, sixteen destroyers'
eight submarines and minor craft
Admiral Dewey points out that II four
first class ships were laid down this year
they would not increase the strength or
the navy. but would only replace the In
diana, MassaChuse tts, Oregon and Iowa
which he SAYS should be withdrawn even
from the reserve line. Contending for a
continuing building policy unaffected by
political parties or change Of admnistra-
ton he says:
THE General Board does not believe the
nation stands ready To abandon or
tional policies. and repeats it's position
that the naval policy OF the country should
he 10 possess feet powerful enough to
prevent or answer any challenge to thes
policies.
The absolute strength necessary 10 ac-
complsh this is "A question that depends
upon the national policies of prospective
challcngers and the force they can bring
AGAINST MS. and hence IS relative and
varies with their naval policies and build
Ing programme.
THE forecast Of the board with regard
10 naval development in other countries
has proved remarkably accurate. The alb
sence OF any ceiinte naval policy on our
part, except i'm the General Board. and the
failure OF the people the Congress and
the executive government 10 recognize the
Necessity TOR such a policy, has already
placed us I'm position OF inferiorlty which
may lead 10 war. and this inferiority IS
progressive and will continue 10 increase
until the necessity for definite policy is
recognized and that policy put into oper-
alton.
The General Board. while adhering TO
the policy II has consistently followed for
the last ten years. and believing that the
naval needs OF the nation call for fleet
OF forty-ciEht ships of the first line in
1920, recognizes conditions as they exist
and the futility Of hoping or expecting
that the ships and men its policy calls for
viii Ice provided by 1920.
The board does believe. however. that
this result may be eventually attained by
the adoption by the government Of "A def
mite naval policy, and the putting Of II
before Congress and the people clearly
and succuctly"
