Carranza Supports Villa In Benton Death Probe Stand
General Venustiano Carranza upheld General Villa’s action to halt the commission investigating the death of British subject William S. Benton. Carranza said information requests must come through him via British diplomatic agents, and Villa was ordered not to engage in international business. Villa suspended negotiations with American and English representatives and barred the commission from Juarez to view Benton’s body. The Benton affair dominated Carranza’s day as he convened his provisional cabinet for the first time to discuss it.

Villa Cuts Wires in Mexico Over Benton Body Mystery
In Chihuahua on March 2 the belief grew that Benton's body, if buried there, is long enough in the ground to reveal little to investigators. Villa refused to explain why the body was moved from the border or burial details. Foreign consuls cannot locate the grave. Villa, at bull and cock fights, showed indifference to international tensions and claimed to have cut the wires on the subject. A foreign envoy’s version was suppressed by Villa who warned he would tell the truth regardless.
