WASHINGTON, March 21-William Benton, British subject was not shot by Villa. but was stabbed to death in Villas office in JuareZ by Major Ru- delfo Fierro, according to persons be- lieved to be conversant with the find ings thus far of the special Mexican commission appointed by CarranZa, to investigate BentOn's death. British Consul Perceval, who left Fl Paso for his post at Galveston, has forwarded a report to the British Embassy here. It is expected here Monday.
 It is understood the report corrobor- ates the findings of the Mexican com mission to the extent that Benton was stabbed, but it is not clearly estab- lished, it is said. by whom the act was committed.
 The British government, as well as the State Department here, is awaiting the report of the Mexican commission, which it is thought may be made early next week, as Carranza is due in Jua- reg on Monday. according to informa-

 Roberto Pesquiera, confidential agent of the Constitutionalists in Washing ton. has started for JuareZ to meet Carranza in connection with the Ben ton case. He knows the general feel ing of the American government over the incident, and it's desire for q clari- fication of it's mystery.
 That Major F'ierro may be charged with the crime and punished, is the ex- pectation of many Mexicans here. They explain Villas story of the courtmar- tial as an effort to shield Fierro, who is said to be d distant relative The Carranza commission, however. it is reported has declared it's purpose of punishine Fierro despite Villas efforts to protect him. The arrest of Fierro was reported from Chihuahua. but confirmation is lacking. Bryan said that while he had heard numerous versions of the Benton killing. com ment would be withheld until the Car ranza commission has finished it's work.

Opening of Aggressive Fight for Repeal of the Ex- emption Provision is Scheduled to Begin in Day or Two
LIMIT DEBATE
 TO FEW HOURS
Unlikely Bill Will Be Taken Up Before Tuesday, But the Vote is Expected Before the End of the Week
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPArcul

A
 WASHINGTON, March 21.-The opening of an aggressive battle for the repeal of the tolls exemption provision in the Panama canal act has been delayed until next week by prolonged consideration in the house oi the rivers and harbors appropria-
 ton bill. Renewed skirmishing in the senate served to reveal, however, the intensity of feeling in the contro- Versy.
 Administration leaders of the house planned to call up the Sims repeal
 Dill in the house and present a rule to limit general debate to fifteen hours. It is unlikely now the bill will be taken up before Tuesday or that vote will be had until late next week.
 Senator O'Gorman, chairman of the 'nter-Oceanic canals committee, who opposed the repeal, announced to the senate he could not call a meeting ot this committee to take up the re- peal controversy until several absent members had returned. He had no wish to delay a settlement of the is- sue, but could not force it in justice to members of the committee who wished to have a voice in the pre- liminary action on the subject.
 Senator Owen, member of the com mittee who earnestly supports the presidents request for exemption re- peal, said he would not seek to hasten consideration of the matter unduly.
 Senator Jones' resolution, calling upon the president for information as to what foreign governments pro- tested against the American tolls exemption was referred by the sen ate to the committee on foreieS re- lations, OGorman asserting that he did not wish it referred to the canal committee. Senator Bristow. who previously urged reference to the canal committee, agreed to let it go to the foreign relations, provided that committee would act.'
 Senator Jones called out a lively comment by reading newspaper ar ticles which state that President Will son sought to influence the house to limit debate on the repeal bill. Sena- tor Thompson urged that Jones con- suit the president oftener, maintain ing that by so doing, he would be a better man and better informed"
 Jones denied that in the recent with the president relating to his speech on the repeal contro- versy the president told him he "was skating o6 thin ice" Asked by Sen ator Pomerene If the ice seems any thicker this morning." Jones denied that his motives were political, add ing that he was opposed to the ex- emption of the repeal "on it's merits
