THE F STREET
FASHION PARADE

1t is a delight to watch the fashion
parade on F street these balmy spring
days. The women are prettily bedecked
in all the beautiful colors of raiment i'm
aginable. and the dapper young fellows
are smartly attired in their tailor mades.
This is a good season for Washington's
tailors-one of them Mr.. NJ. Stein, Of
Eighth and F streets, says the best in
many years. There is quite a fad for
tailored to measure clothes, for each
man likes to have his clothes tailored
just little differently from the common
herd, and that means have them made
to your special order by good tailor.
This is not an expensive way, either. Mr..
Stein tells me that he can produce a
very nifty suit to measure from good re-
liable fabrics as low as $l6 This is GER
tainly very reasonable and no doubt ac-
counts for the fact that SO many people
are patronizings the tailor these days

FROM
.CARRANzA LIKELY
First Chief Expected to De-
mand Withdrawal of US.
Troops from Mexico.
FEARS FOR TERRITORY
Mexican Leader Said to Believe Amer
leans Have Designs on Part
of Country.

Confidential adyices received in Wash
ington state that Gen. Carranza is con-
sidertng serving an aultimatum on the
United States demanding the withdrawal
OF troops from Mexico
Carranza is said to hold there Is no
longer any legitimate excuse for keep
ing American troops in Mexico. The po-
sition he takes is that no other construc-
ton can be placed on the continued pres
ence of American troops than that the
United States has territorial Designs on
Mexico.
In this position Carranza is said to be
supported by Gen. Obregon. Both are
reported, however as desiring to avoid
war with the United States because Of
their belief that II would cost Lower Cal
ifornia, Sinaloa. part OF Chihuahua, and
the Tampico oil district.
The United States government is at
tempting to conduct negotiations direct
ly with Gen. CarranZa through James
Linn Rodgers. diplomatic agent at Mex
leo City. The State Department has
withheld replying to Carranza's note,
sent two months ago, urging withdraw wal
of troops, pending exchanges between
Carranza and Rodgers. The Mexican
embassy here has received no instruc-
tions from Carranza since the Scott
Obregon conferences at FL Paso ended
Carranza's S position, as outlined in the
confidential advices, is that the Mexican
republic, which he represents. is entitled
to the respect due a sovereign state. He
is said to count upon sentiment in Latin
America against foreign Intervention in
Mexico to make the United States pause
before deciding to take more drastic sc-
tion.

 Officials of towns along the course have made their speed laws unopera- tive on this day and will warn all pedestrians and vehicles of their dan ger in using the roads while the races are upon them.
 This race will not be to the fastest car by any means" said Starter Dick Hollongsworth, flor the strentch be- tween Bisbee and the desert and the tortuous state highway over the di- vide, just the other side of the Empire ranch will take real driving to nego- tiate and speed will be second impor- tance."

NATIONAL GUARD OBJECTS
 TO THE HIKE

Naco. Oct. IS. - It has developed within the last few days that there is much opposition among the Ma tional Guard to the date of the pro- posed practice hike, to Phoenix. for the reason that if the march is made as projected the soldier boys will lose their votes. and all who have expressed themselves are anxious to have . chance to vote at the gen. eral election.
 k is.assumed that votes for the members of the militia would be pretty equally divided between the two parties. 90 that If the hike is made neither party presumably would lose seriously, but the injustice of depriving them of their votes is the point on which all are insisting. A considerable number Of the boys 1t appears have transferred their regis tration to Cochise county and thus r:an vote there if they remain here until the day of the election.

MEXICAN WAS SHOT

Douglas. Oct. 15.-Miguel Foutes. Mexican custom guard. who was shot and seriously wounded Thursday at noon at Naco.

This is a portion of the testimony said to have been given before the military court which has been setting on the case in Naco. Ariz.
 Fontes is alleged to have told rela- tives. shortly after the shooting took place, that a Mexican customs guard with when he had previously quar- reeld. had fired the shot, but when others came to question him he told a wonderful story about meeting an American mule driver. wearing the regulation army hat and shoes. and mounted on an army horse. and having been wounded by him.

DEMOCRATS ARE LoYEl
 TO STATE TICKET

Phoenix. Oct l7.-George J. stone man. chairman of the State Democrat ic Central Committee. returned this morning from a trip through Pima
 Cochiss counties. covering a per iod of over a week.
 In view of the fact that the regis iration in those counties is in the pro portion of five democrats to one re- publican. the report of Chairman Stoneman is Of interest, not only to democrats but to the republicans. whose chief reliance for success at the coming election is based upon the hope that so-called disaffected demo- crats will refuse to vote the democrat ic ticket.
 MT. Stoneman found that democrats in Tucson. Douglas. Bisee. Lowell and other places visited by him were wig orously and loyally supporting the en- tire democratic ticket
 As an illustration of the whole hearte6ness of this support, he gives the results of conversations had with those who were foremost in opposi- tion to Gov. Hunt. For example. in Tucson Col Breathitt, while he does no; hesitate ;o say tha; he was op- posed to Gov. Hunt at the primaries, is unqualified in his statement that he believes the will of the majority expressed in the primaries should cause all democrats to support the ticket. of which Gov. Hunt Is the head.
 MT. Applewhite. secretary to ]. s. Douglas. expressed himself as un | qualifiedly in favor of the election of the entire democratic ticket and, as a democrat. promised MT. Stone man that he would do what he could 10 accomplish this result.
 E. E. Ellinwood made liberal con. tribution to the campaign fund, and handed his check to MT. Stoneman with the request that it be used in behalf of the election of the democrat, ic ticket, and without any strings attached to it."
 Dr. Sims of Bisbee, who was one of the strongest supporters of Mir. Ol- ney, wished it understood that he ac- cepted the result of the democratic primaries and. as a democrat, stood for the entire ticket. and repeated to MT. Stoneman the statement. which. shortly after the result of the primar- ies, he wrote to Gov. Hunt, requesting l the Governor to call upon him for any service he was capable of rendering in support of the ticket.
 T understand that there must be disappointment in all conventions or primary results, but ! also understand that if one desires to preserve his party regularity and standing. 1t is necessary to accept primary results and acquiensence in action of the ma jority, though he may remain of the opinion that his primary favorites were the better men"
