WOMEN POLICE AND
DETECTIVES IN CLASH
Request for Transfer Of Woman
Prisoner to Headquarters
Brings Differences.

Headquarters detectives were peev-
ed last night because OF an order
given by Mrs. Nina c. rRn Wrinkle,
lieutenant in charge OF lie women >
bureau, that no prisoners be per
mitted to be taken from the House of
Detention at night.
In the afternoon, Detective J. r.
Fowler, Of First precinct, arrested
Mary c. Ashton, twenty-eight years
old, OF 712 Twenty.fourth street north
west. in connection with the disa p
pearance of clothing and jewelry,
valued at 500, from the home of e. j.
Quinn, $500 Jocelyn street, where the
girl was employed.
After roll call last night, Detective
Fowler telephoned to the woman's
bureau to have the prisoner brought
to police headquarters to be Ques-
toned. The request was refused, and
the detectives were told that II they
wanted to talk to the woman they
could do so at the House Of Detention.
The detectives felt their request
sshould have been granted.
There are several rooms at the
House Of Detention where the detec-
tiyes could talk to the women" Mrs.
Van Wrinkle said. ITO take the
prisoner to police headquarters would
have necessitated having a guard, a
matron and an automobile as well as
the driver, to accompany her, while
all the detectives would have had TO
do would have been to go to The
bureau and see her.
The detectives commended that they
preferred questioning the prisoner in
the quiet OF the police headquarters.
Fowler later went to the bureau to
question the woman, who denies
completely or any knowledge OF the
theft.
