J.. Nov. 21— Lieu-tenant-Commander T. G. W. Settle and Major Chester L. Fordnpy, first Americans to penetrate the stratosphere, landed in this remote corner of New Jersey last night, spent the night in their craft and reported this afternoon that their balloon ascension almost eleven miles above the earth was a success. Major Fordney walked three miles through a swamp today to reach a telephone and sprl*atl the news of th“ safe landing. Commander Settle remained with the balloon to guard instruments and other equipment. The major was taken to a farmhouse and given a cup of coffee. A detail of New Jersey state police arived to escort Major Fordney bark to the balloon. They planned to bring Commander Settle to the farmhouse. Made “Normal Landing” "We made what the commander railed a normal landing," said Major Fordney. “We were unhurt, and the balloon was not damaged. We suffered no hardships during the flight." The flight to an altitude of more than 53.000 feet, only some 4.000 feet under the world record, was a scientific venture to study cosmic rays. The balloon left Akron. 0., yesterday, floated over Pennsylvania and was last from sight over New Jersey after dark. When it was not reported this morning, scores of airplanes, ships and land parties sought for it over a wide area. He Feels "Swell" Major Fordney appeared fresh and not in the least exhausted after the long hours in the air on the second highest ascension ever made by man. He was bareheaded and wore a heavy khaki shirt open at the neck, and khaki trousers. He smiled broadly ’as he drank the coffee. Asked how he felt., he replied: Swell." Great Search Conducted Major Fordney was in great haste to return to the balloon with state troopers and bring Commander Settle back, and he discussed the flight only briefly before departing with them. The sudden appearance of Major Fordney with news of the safety of the stratosphere balloon and its occupants ended the greatest search along the Atlantic seaboard since the crash of the dirigible Akron off the New Jersey coast last spring. More than fifty airplanes had taken off during the early morning from various stations between Norfolk. Va., and Lakehurst, N. J., to seek the balloon.

State Bankers Identify Copeland as Dillinger’s Running Mate in Holdup Paroled Convict Viewed by Rockville Men, Branded as Gunman; ‘That’s Man I Shot At,’ One Tells State Police. Harry Copeland, paroled convict arrested in Chicago and held In city prison here, this afternoon was identified as the bandit who, with John Dillinger, Indiana’s public enemy No. 1, held up the First National

bank of Rockville, Ind., July 17. The identification was made by A. C. Crays and his son, P. R. Crays, Rockville bankers, who said they were positive of the identification. "That’s the man I shot at,” the younger Crays said to Matt Leach, state police captain. “I missed him before, but I wouldn’t miss him again.” . Officials said S2OO was obtained in the robbery. They said Dillinger, identified by photos, took the gun away from Crays and threw him from the building. Captain Leach said he has learned that the terror mob had "paid off” Copeland, planning to get rid of him because he had been drinking heavily and they feared he might make a slip. Copeland was brought by a threecar motorcade from the Michigan City prison to the statehouse late yesterday afternoon. He was questioned and photographed at the state police headquarters and then taken to police headquarters. Spends Night in Solitary Copeland spent the night in a solitary cell on the third floor of police headquarters. Police guarded the stairways with riot guns leading to the jail throughout the night.

Pleas Before Judge Baker Come After Early Morning Conference Between Prosecutor and Holmes. SUBSTITUTE INDICTMENT RETURNED George Schwartz Breaks Down in Courthouse Corridors, Weeps, as He Is Led Back to Jail. Adverse public sentiment, jail and prison breaks, and purported intimidation of Dr. John A. Salb, deputy coroner, resulted today in George Schwartz and Fred Adams, accused slayers of Sergeant Lester Jones, pleading guilty to second degree murder and receiving sentences of life imprisonment. The guilty pleas came after an early morning conference between Ira M. Holmes, their attorney, and Prosecutor Herbert Wilson. Superior court one was substituted for criminal court to hear the pleas because the latter room was being used for the Stanley Parker robbery trial. Tomorrow' morning Ernest (Red) Gibberson and William Mason, two other members of the alleged Jones murder gang, will be arraigned at Noblesville in the Hamilton circuit court.

Grapevine rumors of the | pleas of Schwartz and Adams brought a crowd to superior | court one as Criminal Judge; Frank P. Baker arraigned the ! two men, heard their pleas,, and sentenced them to the Indiana state prison for life. A grand jury returned a substitute indictment early today charging Schwartz and Adams with second degree murder to take the place of the first degree count. Guarded by deputy sheriffs and ; detectives, the two men were brought into court. They leaned casually against the judge's benchrail and looked around the courtroom as Floyd Mattice, chief deputy prosecutor, read the new indictment. I understand you want, to plead guilty,” asked Judge Baker. The men replied in the affirmative in low tones. Mr. Holmes, in explaining the guilty pleas of his clients, said: ‘TI have advised them to plead guilty due to the adverse public sentiment j against them aroused by recent dynamiting of jails, jail-breaks, the 1 smuggling of arms into jails, prison escapes, and threats against Dr. | Salb, deputy coroner. ’ Judge Baker passed sentence. Mr. Holmes then requested that a delay be made in their commitments to the state prison in order that the two men might visit their families.

Schwartz in the belief that they would go on trial in Noblesville tomorrow. That’s why we’re asking for delay,” Mr. Holmes requested. Schwartz Breaks Down Judge Baker granted the request. Schwartz was the only one of the duo to break down following the sentencing. As he was led back to the county jail, he wept in the corridors of the courthouse. A dramatic note was introduced into the courtroom when Willard Kelly, often styled as one of those held in connection with the alleged slaying, but in reality facing robbery charges m connection with the McLean place car barn holdup, confronted Judge Baker with a request for a speedy trial. Appearing without counsel, Kelly in a high-pitched emotional voice shouted to the judge: “For months I’ve been in the county jail branded as one of the Jones slayers. They’ve not let me see my wife. Judge, I want you to quash the indictment against me. I am innocent. I want attorneys.’’ ‘Why Don’t You Shoot Me?’ As Judge Baker agreed to assign Edward McElfresh and Robert Peden, pauper attorneys, to defend him, Kelly turned to the judge, crying, “Have you a gun?” “Why?” answered the startled jurist. “Why don’t you shoot me between the eyes. I’m tired of all of this,” exclaimed Kelly. Judge Baker assured Kelly that he need not worry and that he would receive a fair trial. Indictment against Edward Miller, another one of the Jones suspects, charging murder, will be quashed s Noblesville at the request of tbi prosecutor’s office today. Miller wiA be tried on robbery charges. Discharged by Mason Holmes said Mason, who will go on trial tomorrow in Noblesville, had discharged him as attorney. Circuit Judge Fred Hines of Noblesville, will name a pauper attorney to represent Mason. It has been whispered for sometime Gibberson has confessed his part in the Jones slaying and will be a state’s witness at the trials of the other accused men. Edward 'Foggy) Dean, the last of the alleged bandit gang, is to be tried in the Marion county criminal court. Dean is alleged to have been the “trigger-man” in the slaying. Judge Baker said that Dean would be placed on trial here “as soon as they’re through in Noblesville.” It is expected that Gibberson will be returned here to testify against Dean. Kelly will be placed on trial on the robbery indictment, “as soon as possible,” Judge Baker said. Mystery Call Reported Courthouse attaches see in the quashing of slaying charges against Miller, the sentencing of Adams and Schwartz, the alleged turning of states evidence by Gibberson and trial of Mason in Noblesville, an effort to point the load of the slaying upon Dean. Dr. Salb today reported to police and the prosecutor’s office that he received a mysterious telephone call warning him against testifying in any of the trials of the alleged Jones slayers. Dr. Salb investigated the slaying.
