HAVOC ON COAST OF NORMANDY.
District 10 Visited by a Terrific Gale
and Hioh Tide.

Paris.-A terrific gale and the high
est tide of the year worked great havoc
along the coast of Normany and Brit
tany. In the bay of st. Michael, in the
southwestern part of Normandy, no
such tide has been experienced in 40
years. Huge waves dashed to an un-
usual height against the ramparts OF
Mt. st. Michael. a rocky little island
in the bay on which is situated the IA
nous old Benedictine abbey. and the
gardens and fields in Axrancheo Genest
and other villages and towns on the
coast we're flooded. Three hundred
feet of the sea wall at Granville were
swept away.
The damage at Dieppe was very
great. A large portion of the prone
made vas wrecked and harbor inn
provements under construction ere
destroyed. Pebbles we're washed in
by the sea In such quantities that the
river Scie was damned at its mouth
and the valley OF the river flooded for
several miles.
In the region of Letreport, sixteen
miles north of Dieppe, the sea pene-
trated at many places half a mile in
land, inundating houses from which
the inhabitants made hasty escapes.
At many places portions OF the cliffs
gave way, leaving houses built on the
edges In danger of crashing down.
