Story on Benton.

Rebel agents are frequently to be met
with in public places, volubly explaining
what a hot-tempered man Benton was.
Their favorite story today was that Ben
ton. in the Foreign club at Chihuahua,
once asserted hotly that he wished his
skin were darker so that he would not
be mistaken for q id gringo." This
story is true. II occurred n year ago
and resulted in q formal trst fight be-
tween Benton and Phil Mclaughlin, a
newspaper man then resident In Chlhua :
hua The pair returned from the field Of
battle on a friendly footing. nor did
these occasional outbursts OF the fiery
Scotchman ever affect the real friendship
which the Americans felt for him be-
cause OF his known integrity and blunt
honesty.
II have lent Benton as high as $4,000
without the scratch OF PEN" related an
American well known In Mexico, today,
but now among the refugees here.
At Chihuahua it Is said Villa is at
tempting to find in the court records
something to show that Benton had be-
come Mexican citizen, but his cousin,
William Benton, in this city, said today
that Benton was very careful to maintain
his status as British subject, and thai
in a number OF legal papers he was
scrupulous to have this fact set forth.

Significant Cheer.

a significant cheer was given by the
members OF the house when Sir Edward
Grey said that Sir Cecil Spring Rice. the
British ambassador at Washington, had
told Secretary of state Bryan that pub
lie opinion in Europe was likely to be
seriously affected by General Villas ac-
tons.
Sir Edward Grey explained fully that
Great Britain did not hold the United
States responsible for Villas acts, but
he said the British government was pow
erless to take any measures In the dis
turbed regions. Several members ques-
toned the secretary for foreign affairs
TO make sure the government was TAX
Ing all possible steps to learn the facts
OF the Benton case.
Walter Hines Pages. the American en-
bassador, expressed his personal regret at
the killing OF Benton in an informal talk
today with Sir Edward Grey.

SULZER TRIES To
REGAIN HIS OFFICE
Ousted Governor of New
York Starts Proceedings
Before State Justice.
CASE TO GO HIGHER UP
Doubtful if Decision Will Be
Reached Before Glynn's
Term Expires.

ALBANY. n. Y. Feb. 23.-William
sulzer today instituted legal proceed.
ipgs before Justice Alden Chester OF
the supreme court, to regain the gov,
ernorship, from which he was removed
last October.
An order was issued by the court
commanding Comptroller Sohmer to aP..
pear and show cause why wit or
mapdanus compelling him to pay the
former governor his full salary as the
occupant of that office, should not be
issued. Mr.. Sulzer previously had
for his salary.
When Attorney General Carmody
notified Justice Chester that he would
oppose the granting of the writ, the
court said he intended to refuse it as a
question of law, holding that the court
of impeachment already had passed on
the contentious of Mr.. Sulzer.
Course of Procedure.
An agreement then was made be.
tween the attorney general and Colonel
Alexander s. Bacon, counsel for Mr..
Sulzer, to facilitate the determination
of the question involved by the state
courts. The appellate division viii be
asked to affirm Justice Chester's pro-
posed order denying the granting of
fhe writ and then the case will be car
ried TO the court Of appeals where
similar request will be made Thus
Mr.. Sulzer will be able to file his case
in the supreme court of the United
States with little delay, it is believed.
Doubt is expressed, however, if q final
decision can be obtained from the su-
preme court before the term of Cover
nor Glynn, successor to Mr.. Sulzer,
shall have expired on December 81,
1914.
Contention of SuIzer.
The contentious raised by Mr.. Sulzer
were passed on fully by the court Of
impeachment Chief among them are
that the assembly action in impeach
ment was illegal; that the court of I'M
peachmept was illegally organized; that
six members of the court had no right
to sit, and that acts with which he was
charged were committed before he took
office.
Affidavits signed by Albert Geyer,
Democrat; George W. Jude, Progress
i've. and Clinton T. Horton. Republican,
all members of the assembly in 1918,
were filed with the petition. Mr.. Gey
er swore that although he attended the
session of the assembly when the i'm
parchment resolution was adopted, he
had no advance notice that it was to
be presented Messrs. Jude and Hor-
ton swore that they had no notice of
pending impeachment proceedings and
that il they had been present they
would have voted against the resolu~
tion.
This is the first proceeding instituted
by Mr.. Sulzer to test the validity of his
removal from office.

Villas story OF the killing OF William S.
Benton, told to reporters here today. diff
fers but little from the official stale
ment given out Saturday at Juarez.
The Juarez statement declared that
when Benton reached for his hip pocket
Villa knocked him down with a blow of
the fist Villa said that when Benton
made this move he poked his own pistol
into Bentons stomach and then turned
him over to the guards.
Villa insisted that Benton came TO take
his life and referred TO Benton's ms
sion concerning the welfare OF his ranch
as "pretext" to gain admittance.
According TO villa, Berton. after the
verdict Of the rt-martial. confessed his
guilt and declined TO ask for mercy. He
merely requested that his property be
turned over 10 his widow.
