NEGRO BANDIT
Gets FIVE YEARS
Vanderbilt Banks, Convicted OF
Snatehing Purse, Has Record As
Desperate in Pennsylvania.

Vanderbilt Banks. Negro bandit,
will probably spend the next Ave
years of his life in prison, having
been sentenced to the Detroit House
OF Correction, Thursday morning, by
Judge Phelan. Banks was given from
two and half to five years, with the
recommendation that he be kept there
for the maximum term.
His offense was snatching a purse
from Miss Ellen Alexander, while she
was walking along the street at night.
Banks one time was the leader of a
gang of Negro desperadoes who ter
rorized small towns in western Penn
sylvania. Near Freeport, his gang was
ambushed by the police, and Banks,
cornered by Lieut.. w. p. Peters, en-
gagged in a desperate revolver duel
whit officer.
Peters was shot down and lying on
the ground, he sent bullet through
Banks breast. The Negro almost
died. After his recovery, he was sent
to- the Western penitentiary of Penn
sylvania. Peters shot two other
Negroes during the encounter.
Banks pleaded that hunger drove
him to snatch the purse, but his plea
for mercy had no effect upon the
court.
You are a dangerous man." he told
Banks, and | am going to give you
the limit of the law"

OF raids made In the tenderloin last
night and early today. Not In years
have the police acted SO rapidly, with
the result that the number OF victims
bagged was a record for the territory
covered.
All OF the raids were made on war
rants issued on evidence secured by
young policemen who have been work
ing in plain clothes In disregard Of the
orders issued by Mayor Gaynor. Com
missioner Baker sent them ont Tues

Acting Mayor Mitchel's investigators
were active in the White Light Dis
trict and they found no difficulty in
getting into many illegal resorts and

Most Of the establishments. raided
were run as manicure parlors and the
inmates were arraigned In the wo-
mems court, where, under the new
law, they were remanded for examina-
ton by the health department physi-
Clans
During the raids the police allege
they were offered cash to permit the
proprietors OF the several resorts to
escape and additional charges were
entered against the alleged bribers.
The police also picked up some pio-
neers In a new industry, men who they
allege have been operating through
the district claiming to be special In

set apart by the management of the
exhibition for the people OF the Do

for the Canadians, and they generally
take advantage of every opportunity
to visit the city. They also know q
good fair when they see 1t, too, most
OF them having seen the famous To-

Procipio Cusumano's Widow Says

BY Killing Spouse.

When the case OF Orifio G.. Scianna,
the young Italian charged with the
murder OF Procipio Cusumano, was
called IN Judge Phelan's court, Thurs
day morning, Assistant Prosecutor
Aldrich announced that he would me-.
ask the jury to return a verdict Tor
more than manslaughter.
From the trend of what little evil
dence has been introduced, 1t looks
as though Scianna will be acquitted
Of even that charge. Cusumano's
widow was one of the first witnesses
called by the people, and she declared
that Scianna shot her husband to save
her from being beaten to death.
She told graphic story OF how her
husband came home and quarreled
with her, and how he finally knocked
her to the floor and jumped on her,
drawing a revolver. Then Scianna
rushed in. She was in a half-swoon
but she heard two or three revolver
shots Ing out. Still PROSTATE on the
floor, sshe saw Scianna leave the room
with the revolver in his hand. Her

CHICAGO, Sept. 22.-If the hand
OF fellowship were extended to burg
lars, second-story men, crooks and
others OF this stripe instead OF kick
and threat, the world would be bet
ter and there would be no need or
locks and keys.
This is the belief of Henry Neil.

league, and to show that he Is will
ing TO practice what he breaches,
Neil had all locks and bars removed
from the windows and doors OF his
home today. Any visitor who cares
to enter his house is welcome, said
Neil. and the only favor he asks Is
that II they enter at night they waken
him so that he may serve refresh
ments and have a little chat.
Neil is confident that no one is a
burglar for fun and that at the bot
tom OF every robbery there is a sane
and reasonable excuse. Locks and
iron bars are relics OF a barbarous
age, he said.

ANHUT FURNISHES BOND.
Says Swearing Out Of Capias 10 Just
Political Trick.

The long expected litigation be-
tween the Specially Knitting Co. and
State Senator John N. Anhut, of the
Fourth district, began Wednesday aft
ernoon, In an application for q capias
for Anhut's arrest. made by Charles
l.. Richardot. one OF the stockholders,
through his attorney, James Swan.
The litigation grows out of the pur-
chase by Anhut Of 5000 shares OF
stock In the knitting company, the
par value Of which Is 81 per share,
for $1,000. Richardot claims Anhut
sold the stock for $4,000 and he brings
suit for the difference, $4,000.
Anhut explains that he bought the
stock to keep the concern going at a
time when 1t was In serious financial
difficulties, and for that reason, he
says, was able to purchase 1t below
par. He has since sold the stock, re-
ceiving for 1t $1,000 In cash and two
lots on Vermont-ave., worth about
meantime, had increased In value, &C
cording to his representations.
Attorney John Miner, Mr.. Anhut's
law partner, says the latter offered
Richardot $500 in settlement of the
controversy before his recent Euro
pean trip, but the offer was refused.
Anhut walked into the sheriffs Of
flee at noon, Thursday and gave bail
for his appearance when the case is
set for trial. II ewas accompanied by
bis attorney, Allan III. Cox, and his
bondsmen, Louis Smilansky and
Daniel J. Lyons.
Mr.. Anhut says the issuing Of the
capias is just political trick. He de-
clares his present trouble will have no
effect on his campaign for state sena-
tor In the fourth district.
Pull out OF the fight? Not on your
life," he declared emphatically. This
affair will help me, you see II II
doesn't. II will prove to be advertis-
ing that will bring votes. not drive
