WILMINGTON, Del, June 27-This city

sERGT. DAN Walls QUEER Law
81. Lonisan. Who Punched . Washer. Likes
II So Little He HIistles Back Home.

Sergt. Dan Wall, who is widely know,
in the Police Department az Smoke Up,
is likely to have some explaining to do as
the result of his treatment of James Van y
Barrett of st. Louis. who whipped the two
men who insulted his wife on Broadway on
Friday night. Sergt. Wall told Barrett
in the Tenderloin station that he did wrong
TO hit the insulters of his wife and that in
stead of using his fists he should have called
a policeman. This was in face OF the fact
that Wall had heard that Barrett was not
the aggressor.
As told in yesterdays SUN. Barrett and
his wife and two friends, Mr.. and Mrs.
Edward Walters. were returning TO the
Imperial Hotel from a concert, the two
women walking few feet In front Of their
husbands, when masher, who called him
self Richard Collins, a waiter, made an in
sulting gesture to Mrs Barrett. Barrett,
who saw the gesture Collins made. brushed
his arm down and, warning him to be- care
full, walked on and was struck from behind
by the masher's friend. Barrett knocked
the friend out with one blow and then
turned his attention to Collins, who quickly
cried for mercy. Then the friend WAS
taken to the hospital in an ambulance and
Collins, under arrest, to the police station,
Barrett following to make a complaint.
In the station occurred this remarkable
conversation between Sergt. Wall, who was
doing desk duty, and Barrett:
Don't you know you violated the law
when you st rlicl< this MANI" said Wall.
-1've explained to YOU" replied Barrett.
that these men insulted my wife and
that l didn't raise my hand until was
struck first" .
1T does not make bit of difference. :"
any one You should have called an officer
The law is for the rich and poor alike:
Il understand that sir said Barrett.
-T'm sorry IL violated the law, but l am
going to- protect my wife under all circum-
stances
The sergeant entered complaint Of as
sault against Barrett and put the Washers
friend, though the latter was in the hos
pita and hadn't been heard from. down
as complainant. But before the st. Louis
visitor could be locked up word came that
the injured scrapper had left the hospital.
because no policeman was there to detain
him. Then there Was nothing to do but to set
Barrett at liberty.
Yesterday Barrett was 80 disguised over
his treatment that he wouldn't appear in
court against Collins; Instead ne ana ms
Louis. There being no complainant in
court Collins was discharged
Sergt Walls queer opinions have brought
him notodety before. He is one of the old
time sergeants who like to try cases and
deliver opinions thereon: He is a strong
advocate OF the equal rights Of the poor
and rich but usually when he is concerned
the rich seems to get the worst Of it. He
has been in the Tenderloin only two months,
having been brought over from Brooklyn
after an exile there for violating police
rules.
