This Means Taken to Fool the

Special to Tribune.

Washington, D. c., May 2S.-On
March 81, 1914, Congressman Young
had extended in the Congressional
Record a speech upon the Panama
Canal Tolls which appears in the
Congressional Record Of April 8.
On May IA, 1914, Congressman
Young delivered his philippe against
the Bismarck Tribune.
Abuse More Important.
He considered the latter of more
Importance than his speech in favor
of the ship subsidy. The address
criticizing the tribune for differing
from him on his tolls vote was &C.
tually delivered upon the floor OF the
House.
There is food for thought in this
action on the part of Congressman
Young. :,
To his mind, the speech denouncine
the Bismarck Tribune was of more
Importance than the debate on the
Panama canal tolls question. /
In this instance he merely had his
speech extended on the record to be-
franked out later at the tax payers
expense TO the voters Of the Second
Congressional district. !
On Floor Of House.
The remarks relative to the Tribune
were made on the floor of the House.
These remarks were made May IA. I
His first speech was supposed to
have been made March 81, when the
Panama Canal tolls was up in the
House. On March 81, when it is alleg-
ed he gave long speech, there is no
record that Mr.. Young was ever re-
cognized, but under a rule of the

Niagara Falls, May 2S.--Plans for
the pacification of Mexico through
mediation will be virtually completed
as to the major issues before being
presented to Wilson and Huerta for
approval When this is obtained the
secondary questions will be taken up
and a protocol, covering the basis Of
principles, will be signed.
The mediation conference here will
close and the delegates will return
home, the mediatOrs to complete the
details of the undertaking, in con.
junction with the authorities at
Washington and Mexico City.
This may require several months.
1t is expected the responsibility OF
dealing with the constitutionalists
will be thrown upon the United
States. Among the points still to be
disposed of will be the selection OF
persons to compromise the new pro-
vsional government and exact man

Speculation is rife as to the where's

brought to the penitentiary. A week
has passed since the supreme court
passed final judgment and held that
Mr.. Eickford must serve time, and

Many lnquirers.
Owing to the fact that there have
been numerous inquiries ct the Trib.
une office regarding the matter an at
tempt has been made to secure some
information on the subject.
In the first place the public, must
understand that the supreme court
has nothing to do with the matter.
This court merely decided a question:
in law, and when that was settled
and the last chance for Mr.. BickfOrd
was passed, it was up to the district
court of Mclean county to attend to-
the rest, the matter still being in

Clerk of Court Hanson of Wash
burn was called last night by phone,
regarding the status of the case.
whereupon he stated that upon re-
ceipt of the remittitur from the su-

advised him to notify Judge Engerud
of Fargo, who appeared in the prose-
cution, to prepare the necessary pa,
pers, which consist of judgment and
commitment, and forward them to-
him (Clerk Hanson). Mr.. Hanson,
stated that he had not heard from
Mr.. Engerud, but as soon as he re-
ceived the necessary papers, Mr..
Bickford would be sent for. !,
An unsuccessful attempt to COM

was still at home, but failure in this
regard bars information as to his ex-
