MEXICANS IN RULE; N0 MANANA NOW
Hurry Up the Proceeding at Niagara Falls; MediatorS
 Postpone a Rest They Ex-

Critical Situation as to Advance
 on Mexico City Makes the De-
 mand for Prompt Action; Washington Hopes Raised.

NIAGARA FALLS. May 23.-Con-
 trary to general expectations, this proved a day of intense activity The
 mediators had expected Go take a rest until Monday. when suddenly the Mexican delegates said the situation called for prompt, decisive action.
 The American delegates were nou- fled to appear and repeated confer ences followed From shortly after noon when it was officially announced
 the first dull meeting of delegates of both sides would be held until shortly before midnight there was an aumo- sphere of suppressed excitement about every move. Speculation and rumors Of all sorts were seU at rest only when the mov- l ing cause for the precipitate step was [ learned to be the taking of Salulo and the threatened advance upon the capital by rebels.
 lt is said that while the situation | in Mexico can hardly be called crit.
 cal, it is grave. It is to be the desire | Ni tue +hfAANdu AFltEdlte ID see some l form of provisional government estab- | lished in Mexico City before events | bring a crisis in the capital. ] There is evident disposition to waive
 an immaterial points at issue and come together squarely at once in
 effort to compose all difficulties and reach a conclusion
 Tonight a bulletin was issued au- nouncing that a conference had been
 held lat the request of Che Mexican | representatives for the purpose of in- , forming the mediators and American delegates of the ideas of their govern ment concerning several interesting points for the solution of the present l difficulty"
 It was decided to maintain secrecy . in regard to these points until a . concrete solution is reached, to which
 end informal conferences will con-
 tinue. The favorable outlook was em-
 phasized by results of the afternoon l conference. Before it went into ses-
 sion the American delegates had no
 idea which of several phases of the situation was to be broached.

Bisbee daily review., 1914-05-24

W. w. Kermeen, in his remarkable, facne and agile brain has hit upon scheme to plead his way to free dom. In his confession he has paved the way to present a plea of "emo- tional insanity" He has dwarled real reasons for his terrible actions on the late afternoon of May g. and laid the crime at the feet of some uncaused trance"
 Kermeen's confession is remarkable 1t is a wonder in its cratic meaning and incomprehensible origin. A DOT ton of 1t. the murderer plainly evolved from the opportunity he found to fancy that harm awaited him in Bisbee, when the sheriff de cided he should go to Tombstone from Douglas.
 A careful perusal Of the statement made by Kermeen to Sheriff Wheeler and Deputy William J. Graham dis closes great many pertinent dis crepancies.
 According to the best medical knowledge Kermeen's statement to the effect that Harren cursed him and asked to be killed after being sfrSsetween the eyes the first time, is untenable. They declare that it would have been utterly impossible for the man to have spoken, under the circumstances. The first bullet paralyzed the vocal chords of the victim.
 Further medical comment on the confession is that it would have been slightly possible for Harren to move about the huI after being shot.
 On the whole, however, the effect of the statement loses much of It's weight when considered from physo- logical and psychological standpoints' If does not. however. take away from tbe importance of the statement in that the man confessed to the atro' ciops and revolting crime.
 Kemeen was brought to Bisbee yes terday by Sheriff Wheeler from the county seat The prisoner had been taken from Douglas to Tombstone Fri day night after his arrival in the for mer city
 Little or no curiosity was expressed in Bisbee yesterday as 10 Kermeen outside of a desire Go know what the confession contained Aside from few people who merely were curious to see inc murderer there was no attempt tc pack the court room at Judge Highs office about the time the prisoner wai expected.
 Conseauently when Sheriff Wheeler surreptitiously brought Kermeen Into Bisbee. stopped the machine at some place mp Tombstone Canyon, tele phoned to Judge High to have th' court and officers in readiness for tho arraignment. and then rushed the mur derer. a very few minutes later into tbe small rear office of the Justice Court, where a hurried hearing wal held. and then reembarked in the coun fly automobile. with his criminal bag gage and made for Tombstone, no even allowing one of the local officer sufficient time to take a picture O Harrelps antitheucal Nemises, con siderable surprise was evoked.
 According to a few who are eithe attaches of Judge Highs Court or wh' were on the ground by chance th prisoner was in deadly fear of his lif and trembled during the hearing. Ol his journey into the city, it i5 repori ed. Kermeen took every occasion t speak of the possibility of his recei'

II cummins Would Line Up.

Vinton Eagle: A high tariff is az
important today as it was when first
enacted. The free trade hobbies get
possession Of the country once dur
ing each generation and chen tae
people go back to a constructive par
ty. There Is no need OF looking for
an issue. The issue Is already made
by the administration.-Mason City
Times.
The above paragraph is in COM
ment on an editorial in the Register
and Leader. We hope Senator. Cum
minis will read It. 1t is a soothing
potion 20 us ."old tariff standpatters"
who begged Bro. Cummins to come
back from Canada and take care OF
the American market. who begged
him not to proselyte the republicans
OF Iowa with his liberal tariff ideas.
Perhaps Senator Cummins, who has
built up one OF the strongest political
machines ever seen in Iowa, will guide
his followers SO that they Will voto
for the republican candidates for con-
gress this fall. The republican party
does not want any more 'Iaceyfz-
ing" nor no more "Hepburnizing'' OF
It's candidates. II. as we have been
told, Senator Cummins has changed
his mind and position as 70 the tariff,
and will take hold with Senator
Kenyon, the republicans Of Iowa can
make such campaign as we used 20
see In the olden time and roll up as
big a majority, and elect every can
didate for congress In the state. SEN
ator Cummins in congress is not the
worst thing that could happen to the
republican party, bur Senator Cum
minis In congress fighting every tariff
schedule the party is sponsor for is
driving many republicans from the
party. Every republicans shoulder
should be to the wheel Of protection
this fall and the Eagle is willing to
accept Senator Cummins as the lead
er II he will honestly push.

There is a growing belief that this
