My desire to serve Harrisburg

This statement was made to-day at,

"We have heard that Benton held 1
several small offices under President
Diaz and that he was once mayor of a
small settlement on his own estate.
He could not have held office without
being a Mexican citizen, and the rec
ords at Chihuahua City are being
searched to establish the facts."
Relatives here of Benton say that
the deeds of his Mexican property
refer to him as a British subject and
that he was always careful there
should be no doubt on this point.
In the meanwhile the request of the
State Department at Washington for
the handing over of the body of Ben
