One house was wrecked in the
northwest section OF the city. A wo-

in the ruins.
As the storm cleared, reports OF
houses unroofed and demolished began

The pension Office, postoffice anr
other government buildings had large
holes torn in their roofs by lightning.
The capitol grounds and others OF

giant reaper had stalked through, cut

lay thousands of birds killed by the
hailstones. Motor cars, left unguarded

demolished like toys; horses, terrified
by the pelting of the hail and the
shrieking of the wind, dashed driver

Mrs. Hanan seldom wears the D.

them at Shore Acres" They had bee
brought over from New York at 9
when she had expected to give
annual reception to Governor and
Pothier. The illness of Mr.. Hananl
made it necessary to cancel the + N

Mrs Hanan said that the domestics
of whom there are about twenty-hy@
had been eliminated in the investiga
ton. With the exception of two but
lers, engaged this year, all OF those
employed at Shore Acres" have been
with the family for years. A theory o1
motorboat thieves also has been dis
missed, as the shore of Block Island
Sound, over which the house looks
is rough, and a small boat would have
great difficulty in landing anywherf
near the estate.
1t is the common belief in the Mar
ragansett colony that the robberies are
the work of the same gang of thieves
who operated successfully at the Piel
and Newport last season and that the
same group is responsible for ths
theft of $4,000 worth of jewels from
the home of Harry L. Haas, at Lonl
Branch, on the night Of July 2.

The theft of jewels worth $277,00O 2

The gang of expert burglars ta

The loss OF Mrs. John II. HaL J

very valuable.
The best detective genius aEaIlabf
is matching wits with the expeI

belief that the thieves, operating 2
gentlemen, are sauntering about u
fashionable hotels looking for an pl
portunity to leave town without excl

Mrs. Hanan's jewels were stole
from her room during an absence
not more than twenty minutes or

were removed from her sleeping reoy
