Proof.
Assume (1), and let $\mathcal{Z} \to \mathcal{Y}$ be as in (2). Choose a scheme $V$ and a surjective smooth morphism $V \to \mathcal{Z}$. By assumption the morphism $V \times _\mathcal {Y} \mathcal{X} \to V$ of algebraic spaces is universally submersive, in particular the map $|V \times _\mathcal {Y} \mathcal{X}| \to |V|$ is submersive. By Properties of Stacks, Section 100.4 in the commutative diagram
\[ \xymatrix{ |V \times _\mathcal {Y} \mathcal{X}| \ar[r] \ar[d] & |\mathcal{Z} \times _\mathcal {Y} \mathcal{X}| \ar[d] \\ |V| \ar[r] & |\mathcal{Z}| } \]
the horizontal arrows are open and surjective, and moreover
\[ |V \times _\mathcal {Y} \mathcal{X}| \longrightarrow |V| \times _{|\mathcal{Z}|} |\mathcal{Z} \times _\mathcal {Y} \mathcal{X}| \]
is surjective. Hence as the left vertical arrow is submersive it follows that the right vertical arrow is submersive. This proves (2). The implication (2) $\Rightarrow $ (1) follows from the definitions.
