Herman Ban
ning, Jail Fugi
tive, Captured
Man Once Charged With Robbery of
Mnrdock Bank, Held on Wea
pon Charge in Wisconsin
From Thursday's Uaily
Herman Banning, who with Harry
Botorff. were arrested in Council
Bluffs for robbery and later charged
with the robbing of the Bank of
Murdock, is now held at Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, on a weapon charge. This
follows a period of several months
liberty for Banning, whose sensa
tional escape from the Douglas coun
ty jail at Omaha, attracted national
attention.
After the escape from jail three
Kansas young men were arrested and
confessed to the Murdock robbery
and are now serving time for this
charge while Botorff is at the pen
itentiary on the jail breaking charge.
Banning was arrested in Milwau
kee on a charge of carrying conceal
ed weapons. Police there got a tip
on him as a Minneapolis rum runner.
He gave his name as Earl Stevens,
also known as Earl Lewis and Earl
Parker.
"Not Going Back."
Arrested with Banning was Wil
liam Helpley of St. Joseph, Mo., who
is held for Maryville, Mo., authori
ties on a charge of breaking jail,
wo women who 'were with them were
not held. "
"Yes, I'm Banning," the jail
breaker told a reporter at the Mil
waukee county jail. "I'm wanted
for busting out of jail at Omaha,
but I'm not going back there if I
can help it.
"I'll fight extradition to Nebras
ka, but I'm willing, to go back to
Missouri. I've; served five years of a
15-year rap for-burglary in Missouri,
and I'll go back and serve the rest
of it.
"All thev can hang on me at Om
aha Is this jaiVbreaking charge, but
they tried once to give me a bum rap
on a bank job."
Seeks Funds for Girls.
Banning refuses to say where he
had been since he escaped.
"Lay a hundred dollars on the
line and I'll tell you about it," he
said. I'll tell the truth, too. I've
got to get money to get the girls
back home. They haven't got a
dime."
Detectives lay in wait for Banning
at a house in West Ollin, a Milwau
kee suburb.
Banning stepped into the house
carrying a raincoat on his arm. See
ing detectives, he threw back the coat
to reveal a .45 automatic pistol in
his hand.
Another detective, hidden in a side
room, said: "Drop that gun."
Keeping his gun pointed at the
men in front of him. Banning turn
ed his eyes to see the officer at his
side, gun pointed. He let his own
gun drop to the floor.
Botorffflf was captured three days
after the jail break, after "living like
a rat" in the open. Posses pursued
Banning for nearly two weeks, with
reports that he wtts seen in a num
ber of places, but finally gave up.
