Answer to Enauiries-

A number of readers have asked
the question why the call of the Board
of Supervisors for primary election
this fall does not designate the office
of County Surveyor. The reason is
very simple. The last legislature
abolished the Office of County Sur
veyor, also the office of Road Super
intendent, and provided that the
Board of Supervisors in each county
on and after January 1, 1915, should
appoint a County Engineer who should
be both county surveyor and road
superintendent.

The street department, under the
direction of Street Supervisor

work on the East Side and Railroad

is certainly in order and we hope

entirely obliterated.

as was his custom, had gone to SER
vice at the Presbyterian Church, and
remained for a congregational meet
ing, which was held Immediately
after the service. without any warn
ing he suddenly expired, due to an
affection of the heart with which he
had been troubled for some time. Mr..
Can't was born in Newport, sixty-on
years ago and had led a very active
life. After learning the jeweler's 8
trade with Charles Boas in Harris
went into business for himself, a busi-
ness which he had continued up to
the time of his death.
Mr.. Can't served the borough as a
councilman; was q member of the
Presbyterian Church. of which for
many years he had been trustee; in
politics he was a Republican. He was
a charter member and director of the
Citizens National Bank, its first vice

death its president, having succeeded
the late John e. F'leisher in that office.
He is survived by his wife, a son,

that the Mexican situation would not
be generally debated in the Senate, at
least until all the facts in the Benton
case had been gathered, and then II 1t
came up, the subject would be intro
duced in connection with pending
resolutions asking that the United
States take certain steps to protect
foreigners in Mexico.
May Be Referred
The resolutions, Senator Shively
said, had never been referred to any
committee, but that at the next execu-
tive session they would probably be
referred to the foreign relations COM
mittee for consideration.
One resolution by Senator Penrose,
Republican, pending since last Au-
gust, would direct the President to
take such steps as are necessary to
place sufficient number of United
States troops in Mexico as a constabu-
larry at such points as in his opinion,
they may be needed to properly police
and protect citizens Of the United
States and their property"
1T Is hereby declared the Pen
rose resolution stipulates, that such
employment of troops is not made
with any intent that such policing and
protection shall be construed as an act
of hostility or unfriendliness toward
the Mexican nation"
The Penrose resolution proposes an
emergency appropriation Of SIS, ,000,-
600 to be expended under the direc-
tion of the President for it's purposes.

Americans Learn Benton
Was Knocked Dolun and
Later Shot by Villa
By Associated Press

Ell PaSo, Texas, Feb. 23.-The fate
of the missiong Englishmen, Laurence
and Curtis, and the Americans, Bauch
and Harry Compton, in Mexico, was
still in doubt to-day nor was there any
promise that the body of w. s. Ben
ton would be produced by the Juarez
authorities. No word was received
from the troop train which General
Villa at Chihuahua said would be
bringing fifteen rejected American re-
|cruits to Juarez and among whom he
suggested that the missing foreigners
might be found.
Americans at last obtained ver~
sion of the killing of Benton which
they believed to be true. 1t was that
Villa knocked Benton down and then
had two of his men take the Scotch
man into the backyard where the
rebel general presently followed and
fired the fatal shot or shots himself.
The verdict of the supreme mill
tary court of the State of Chicuahua
which will decide whether Gustav
Bauch, an American charged with be-
ing a Federal spy. is guilty Of the
charge and shall be executed or
whether he is innocent and will be al
lowed his liberty, will be rendered this
week, said FREDERICK Gonzales Garza
legal advisor to Colonel Fidelavila to-
day. He said that Bauch was still
alive and in the penitentiary at Chi
huahua awaiting final decision of the
court which is considering his case.
May Have Been Executed
Many Americans believe that Bauch
was executed in Juarez some time last
week and never taken to Chihuahua.
Consul Edwards said that as far as he
could learn Bauch was in Chihuahua
but he had received nothing official re-
garding him.
Marion Letcher, of Chihuahua, who
had been instructed by the Depart
ment of State to look up Bauch the
day before Villa left for Chihuahua
called on Bauch at his prison in the
Juarez theater. They talked for about
half an hour. Villa asked him agout
the charges against him and Bauch
maintained that they were absolutely
baseless and that he was innocent of
such charges as being a Federal spy
An American was in the party and
at the conclusion of the interview said
he heard Villa remark to Bauch: II
am going to kill all of you red flag
gers and I know you are one of them"

ment as assistant superintendent

In taking this action / freely
admit that | am doing SO against

advanced by the retention of Mr..

that more of our citizens will be

see either you or the worl1fhandi-

sentiment however unjust it
might be.
You already know my high re-,
gard for the very able work of
Mr.. Forrer, and while I appre-
ciate the confidence which you
have reposed in me by suggesting
my name for the position, I am
nevertheless convinced that the
welfare of this department will be
safeguarded only with my with
