BRlTONS PROTEST
AGAINST IMACTl0N
Colony in Mexico City Urges
English Government to Inves-
tigate Penton's Death.

Mexico City, Feb 2S.-Impatience over
the delay in investigating the killing II
William s. Benton at Juarez recently
was shown tonight at a mass meeting OF
British subjects here. and a vigorous pro-
test was sent to Sir Edward Grey, the
British Foreign Minister, who was urged
TO use his influence TO induce the British
government TO assume full charge Of the
investigation for fixing the responsibility
for Benton's death.
"The members of the British colony
have viewed with patience but apprehen-
sion" said the cable message TO Sir Ed
ward "the immense prejudice caused
their business and personal interests
through the attitude assumed by the for
eign powers with regard to the present
unfortunate situation in this country and
the apparent reluctance of their own gov
eminent TO take definite steps to protect
such interests. But In view of the killing
of William S. Benton at Ciudad Juarez
this feeling has become one of alarm. in
asmuch as II appears from press reports
that the investigation and action 10 be
taken concerning the death of our fellow
eign government, and that it appears
from press notices that the British rep
resentative in the investigation will not
have the support necessary to insure MIN
obtaining full and authentic information.
This alarm has been increased since
press dispatches received here report that
the request Of the United States govern
ment to have the body Of Benton de-
livered TO his relatives has been refused
and that no effective steps have yet, TO
the knowledge of Britishers here, been
taken by said government 10 enforce this
demand or bring 10 justice the respon-
sible parties They believe prompt and
energetic action is essential to sustain
the confidence Of British subjects resi-
dent In this country and uphold their
moral ana material protection and main
tain the respect with which they have
hitherto been treated. due TO the uni
versal knowledge that their government
would see that protection and justice for
them are fully secured
