SENATE LIKELY TO TAKE
HAND IN MEXICAN AFFAIR

| Washington. Feb. 2a.-Upon the de-
velopment of the next day or two in
| the case Of William 6. Benton, the
British ranch1nan executed by the
Mexican Constitutionalist General
Villa. at JUarez, seems to rest whether
fine senate will take a hand in the
Mexican situation.
Acting Chairman Shively, e the for
eign relations committee, after a con-
ference with President Wilson today,
said If the senate discussed Mexico,
it probably would be upon some Of
the pending resolutions which for
months have been sidetracI1ed that the
administration might be left free to
deal with the problem.
There are three such resolutions. One
by Senator Penrose proposes that
United States troops be placed in
Mexico as a constabulary for the pro-
lection of Americans. Another by
Senator Fall proposes TO put the SEN
ate on record to the effect that Ameri-
cans and their property must be pro-
tected. StilI another by Senator Shep-
pard concerns recognition CT the bel
ugerency of the constitutionaIists,
IF administration leaders let the
Mexican situation break out in senate
debate it probably would be upon
either or both of the first two.
Secretary Bryan today declined to
discuss deny or affirm whether he had
demanded production of Benton's body.
An examination OF its wounds, it was
pointed cut, probably would disclose
whether the Englishman vas executed
by a firing squad or killed by one
shot and also whether his death was
caused by rife balls or revolver bull
let's.
Meanwhile no additional details OF
the killing had been received here nor
had further report been made of the
safety OF Bauch, an American held as
a spy at Chihuahua,
THE TRUE VERSION.
The story of Benton's friends that he
was unarmed. that he was killed by
Villa in person and that the court
martial was nothing but inquest,
is being carefully taken into considera-
ton by officials who are receptive to
any evidance that would substsntiate
those claims.
There is no question in the minds of
close observers but that the confidence
hitherto felt in the disposition Of Cen
era1 Villa to extend protection to Tor
eigners has been somewhat shaken.
Just as Villa had given satisfactory
assurance that he would protect Span
iards at Torreou and as the American
government was believing that II
would not be worried with the protec
ton OF foreigners in North Mexico the
Benton incident has re-awakened dis
cussion Of the entire Mexican prob
lem.
Talk of armed Intervention, possible
speeches in the senate by those who
favor q drastic policy and a general
agitation is again in the air. Admin
istrat4on officials realize that the sit
uation is fraught with all sorts of
possibilities IN which the unexpected
often plays a vital part,

COMMENT BY NEWSPAPERS

Newspapers throughout the British
Isles today gave prominent place to
information and comment on the kill
ing Of William s. Benton, the British
subject, by Gen. Villa, the Mexican
rebel leader, the general tenor Of re-
marks being that the execution was
plain murder.
at is impossible not to suspect that
the execution Of Benton was no better
than murder" says the Manchester
Guardian, one of the leading liberal
papers. THE facts are pretty clear
but it is difficult to draw any lesson
from them except that the Mexican
leaders still conduct their warfare with
the barbarity OF the middle ages and
