Court, and Edgar c. Snyder, United
States marshal, all of whom she named
as defendants in declaration filed in
the District Supreme Court today.
The plaintiff, through her attorney,
r. M Hudson, declares to the court that
all of the defendants illegally and force

they forced open doors and windows,

furniture on them, broke and damaged
silver and china ware and threw all of
it out of the premises, and then brutal
ly drove her and her daughter into the
street and then barred and locked the
premises so that she could not enter.
Mrs. Darlington alleges that she was
the owner and occupant of the premises
319 B street southeast, on which the
defendant, Mrs. Lawon held the second
trust which she had Mulley illegally
and unlawfully forecIose, when there
had been no default. The defendant,
Mrs. Lawon, it is alleged. purchased the
property and then caused to be insti-
tuted landlord and tenant suit in the
Municipal Court, and that judgement
was given for the plaintiff in that suit
Mrs. Lawon, Notwithstanding the fact
that there was an equity suit pending
to vacate the foreclosure sale. The
plaintiff alleges that a supercedeas
bond Of $1,000 was filed, which stayed
the proceedings pending the filing OF
petition in the Court of Appeals fol
a writ of error. This petition was filed
and denied by Chief Justice Martin on
September S, and the following day a
request was made that Justices Robh
and Van OrSdel examine and consider
the petition, and notice served .on the
Municipal Court. The plaintiff alleges
that writ of restitution had not been
issued at the time of this notice, but
was issued few minutes later, in the
face of warning from the plaintiff
that the supercedeaS stayed the pro-
ceedings in the lower court and a warn
ing that the Municipal Court was with
out jurisdiction. 1t is then alleged that
the defendants conspired and colluded
to and did issue or take out on Septem-
Der IL a dated back paper which was
beyond the jurisdiction of the court to
issue. The plaintiff charges that the
paper was null and void on its face and
on the face of the record, and that this
was known to the defendants to be null
and void.

BURKE FORGIVEN"
IN ASSAULT CASE
E. A. Rickert, Who Alleged
Policeman Kicked Him,
Holds Up Charge.

The case against Policeman William
F. Burke, who was charged by E. A
Rickert, Pip Eighteenth street, with
having kicked him during raid on the
Ambassador Oyster House, 2106 Eight
zenith street, and which was investigated
by the United States attorneys office fol-
six weeks, promised to dissolve into thin
air today when Mr.. Rickert idtimated
that he would forgive Burke" and
probably not press his charges further
This developed when Burke. accom-
panied by his attorney, James A. O'Shea
appeared at Assistant United States At
torney Ralph Given'S Office this morning
and offered to surrender himself ane
TO give bond only to find there was nc
warrant for his arrest. Yesterday

Mr., Rickert appeared at Police Court
as the complainant.
United States Attorney Drops Case.
Today it appeared that Mr. Rickert
had no further intention of swearing
to the warrant. In that case, Mr.. Rover
said, the case would be dropped so far
as his office is concerned.
RicEert said today that he was acting
under advice of counsel, and though re-
fusing to say in so many words that he
would not accept the district attorneys
invitation to get the warrant for Burke,
implied as much by declaring he did
net intend ''to blacken 'One mans char
acter at the expense of another"
Burke Seen as Prohibition Goat"
1T looks to me as if the prohibition
unit is trying to make goat out of
Burke" Rickert said. Il understand
they don't get along very we'll with the
police anyway While the charges I
made against both men are absolutely
true it seems to me as though the dis
trict attorneys Office is trying to split
hairs, so forgive Burke"
Rickert evidently had reference to the
fact that the United States attorneys
office had exonerated John ]. QUINN,
deputy prohibition commissioner for the
District, whose name he linked with
that of Burke in his charges Of as
sault at the time of the raid.
Policeman Burke said today that he
was entitled to trial of his case and
an opportunity to clear himself of the
charges against him. No one appeared
to know, however, how he could bring
his case into court, in the absence OF
the warrant.
