If the question is, why do you see “1 2 3” in the first case and 3
lines in the second, the answer is in the behavior of ‘ls’: ‘ls 4*’ is
like ‘ls’ and lists the files 1, 2, and 3.  If output is to a
terminal, ‘ls’ formats it in columns, but in your second example,
output is to a pipe and ‘ls’ defaults to single-column output (like
‘ls -1’).

That said, I see no output:

> ls 4*
fish: No matches for wildcard '4*'.
ls 4*
   ^
> ls 4* | wc -l
fish: No matches for wildcard '4*'.
ls 4* | wc -l
   ^

I am not sure if the difference is caused by some setting or by the
different version of the shell (2.1.2 from Debian here).

HTH,
