Venue Change II Lands Presides;
Ready for Second Immunity Bath.
CHICAGO, March 14.-With the cir
culation, upon apparently good au-
thority, of reports that indictments
have already been drawn hitting the
National Packing Company and five
other corporations, in connection with
the Government inquiry into the al
legged beef trust, it is known that the
attorneys for the packers are already
formulating defense.
Their first step, it is said, will be
to see that Federal Judge Lands
does not preside during the trials. Ii
the judge of his own volition passes
the case to some other jurist, the
packers say they will be spared the
necessity Of asking change of venue.

there had never been any chance for

it would be analogous to trying to hit
a. bird on the wing with rifle. He
said that practice with aerial guns against
captive balloons was very dlHerent

aeropIane high in the air.
John Barry Ryan spoke of the aero

told of the plans that had been mace
for the organization He said there were
experiments in observation and bomb
