Investigation Of Murder Of w. s.
Benton at Juarez-Polico Stop

Washington, Feb. 23.-Following a
cabinet conference on Friday night
Secretary Bryan ordered an immedi-
s. Benton, English ranch owner, at
Juarez.
Secretary of State Bryan was ad-
vised of the death of w. S. Benton. an
English ranch owner, in Mexico, re-
Gently reported in the hands Of the
rebels. No details were given. Ben
ton defied the rebel general and re-
ferred to his former career as bandit.
The Englishman was held in the same
prison as an American who was &C
cused of being federal spy.
Secretary Bryan announced the
news of Benton's death as he went
into a cabinet meeting at the White
House. He declared he had no de-
tails. An official dispatch from Con-
sui Edwards merely announced the
death of the Englishman. Sir Cecil
Spring-Rice, the British ambassador,
who called upon Secretary Bryan to
ask for information of Benton, also
was told of the news.
Benton was arrested in Juarez last
Tuesday. His wife and friends feared
he had been executed by General
Villa, the constitutionalist leader.
Villa at first denied knowledge of
Bentons whereabouts, but in CONVEX
sation with inquirers intimated that
he knew something about the Eng
lishman and added that Benton had
threatened him with revolver. Villa
was quoted as expressing profane in
difference toward an appeal to the
British ambassador at Washington.
Ell Paso, Tex, Feb, 23.-William
s. Benton, millionaire ranch owner
| in Chihuahua and a British subject,
who has been missing since Tuesday,

General Francisco Villa, before leav-
ing for Chihuahua City, admitted that
on Wednesday night he signed an
order for Benton's execution. o.
Villa, charged that the Englishman
was implicated in the plot to assas-
| sinate him.
There is great deal of excitement
over the Benton affair. There was to
have been public meeting on Friday
night in Cleveland Square for protest
against the killing of Benton by Villa.
| The police got word of the contem-
plated meeting and refused to grant
permission to hold it. Hundreds of
special deputy sheriffs have been
sworn in to prevent any gatherings
which might foment riot. At a
meeting held in local theater,
speakers denounced Gen. Villa 8

WILL OPEN CANAL BY JULY |
Upholds Repeal of United States
Ship Tells.

Washington. Feb. 23.-Col. Geo. w.
Goethals said on Friday that, barring
unforeseen accidents, the Panama
canal will be open for merchant ships
July /. The colonel added that he
had always been opposed to the ex-
emption of American coastwise ship
ping from the payment of tolls, be-
cause that would decrease the reve-
nues of the canal and, in his opinion.
would not accrue to the benefit Of con-
sumers, but merely increase profits OF
the ship owners. The colonel declined
to discuss its legal aspect or it's bear
Ing on treaty relations.
THE canal Notifications are entirely
adequate said the canal builder, "and
do not think there is the slightest
danger Of the canal being captured by
any enemy, for it would not be pos.
sible for such force to get near
enough"

foreign soldiers in his army, especial

OF Chihuahua, except those who are in

Change in Primary Law.

The bill of Representative Cary, of
Mclean county, amending the present
primary election law, passed the
house by the vote of 6S to 6. The
measure eliminates the necessity of a
person securing certain number of
signatures to petition before his
name can go on party ballot for NOM
ination to Office, merely requiring him
TO file declaration, vouched for by
two reputable voters under oath, that
he has the necessary qualifications for
Office, and that he supported the nomi-
nees of the party whose nomination
he is seeking in the last general cleo
ton. 1t also makes unnecessary the
holding of primary election in dis
trict where the candidate, or candi-
dates, is without opposition.

King George Makes Personal Appeal
to Officers of Army and Can

London-The dreaded Sunday pass
ed without the slightest disturbance
of order in Belfast or in Ulster. where
the home rule policy has brought
condition of impending civil war. But
the gravity OF the crisis is fully indi-
Gated by the fact the king cancelled
his intended weekend visit to the
Earl and Countess of Derby at Liver
pool.
The king and queen also cancelled
their proposed visits TO the races on
Thursday and to the grand national
race on Friday.
The king has thrown his influence
earnestly on the side OF Cancellation.
and seems TO have made a personal
appeal to the officers who had resolved
to resign rather than face the posi-
bility of being called on to fight in
Ulster, and it may be taken for grant
ed the king is equally exerting his
influence with his ministers in the
same conciliatory direction.
Proofs are not wanting of the de-
sire on both sides that everything
possible should be done to avoid any
chance of conflicts. The nationalists
have abandoned their proposed parade
at Londonderry. and Sir Edward Car
son. the Ulster unionist leader, con-
tinues to voice his desire to do his ut
most to avoid provocative acts.
The government announces that all
intended movements of troops in Ire
land have now been completed, but
this may be a decision necessitated
by the threatened designations of the
officers.
