PARIS. Sept. 18.-Emergency re-

hastily today to aid the victims of
violent storms which swept all
France during the last twenty-four
hours and killed at least seven per-

Scores we're left homeless in the
provinces as result Of the worst de-
huge which has struck the country
III years. Telegraph and telephone
communications we're disrupted,
trains were delayed, and shipping
along the Mediterranean and in the
English channel was disorganized.
After hours Of near cyclonic con-
ditiOns in the outlying districts the
dOwnpour struck Paris with full
force Tuesday night, accompanied
by thunder lightning and hail.
Streets were flooded and traffic was
disrupted temporarily.

property damage in Paris, but no

in several districts, the crops suf-
lered heavily from cyclonic winds
and heavy rains. In the Marbonne
and st. Malo regions, many build
ings were wrecked
In fashionable Dinard and st.
Malo the property destruction was
great. More than 100 villas we're
submerged and the homeless occu-
pants spent the night in barns or
in houses OF more fortunate neigh
bOrs. Four inhabitants we're re-
ported missing.
Towns Are Submerged
Dinard was divided in two parts
by d large body of water Soldiers

DENIES v. v. HAND
HAD BIG CASH sum
Inspector Declares Report
False Escaped Convict Had
$500 When He Left.

Investigation by Inspector Albert ].
Headley of the report that Wilbur w.
Hand, convicted bank bandit, who es-
capped from a fifth precinct cell last
Wednesday, had on his person $500 re-
ceived from the sale of his automobile,
has proved the report groundless, Head
ley said today.
When Hand was first arrested and
held as a fugitive from justice, he
had an expensive automobile which he
endeavored to sell. Headley says that
he got in touch with Ralph Stabler,
a secondhand automobile dealer, of
918 Tenth street, and that the auto
mobile was sold to Stabler through
Hands brother. who was in town at the
time. The money, however, was paid
by Stabler to Hands brother on the
street IN front of a downtown hotel,
according to Headley, and since Hands
brother was never allowed to see the
prisoner except when a policeman was
present, the money could not have
passed to Hand unnoticed
Inspector Headley said that when
Hand was arrested he had on his person
$35. This sum was taken away from
him and kept by the station clerk. On
Tuesday, Hand asked permission to
treat" the other inmates of the cells
to sandwiches and he was given SIS of
the money with which to do so. Hand
was allowed to telephone for a taxi
driver who executed the commission at
a nearby restaurant, returning Hand
about $3.50 in change. This amount was
not taken away from him and as far as
police now know it was all that Hand
had on his person when he escaped.
The remainder Of the money was turned
over to Harry M. Luckett, the depart
ments property clerk. yesterday for safe
keeping.
Inspector Headley said that no new
facts have been developed by his in
vestigation since he made his prelimi-
larry report recommending that the sta
ton clerk at the fifth precinct be
brought before the Trial Board for failing
to visit the cell in which Hand was
locked every half hour as required by
the police manual. There were numer-
Gus reports that Hand had been seen
in Baltimore, but Headley said that none
OF these nor Of several other tips which
he has received has proved Of any
value.
