June One of the worst summer storms in years swept almost thp ntire upper Mississippi river valley late yesterday, taking at least four lives and doing hundreds of thousands of dollars' property damage.

Nebraska, South Dakota, Minnesota and Illinois were hit by the high winds and hard rains. Three persons were killed in Chicago and one in Minnesota. Possibly the most serious menace to Chicago followed the storm in threatened pollution of the drinking water supply. The storm reversed the Calumet river and caused siw-age to be poured inio lake Michigan The steamer Saugatuck was disabled far, out in the. lake with 700 passengers aboard, but rode out the storm with tvscue craft brought along by S.O.S.

calls. A fleet of yachts was caught off shore and a half dozen were forced to run before the gale with bare poles. Airplanes Wrecked. Six government airplanes were wrecked at Omaha. when the roof was blown off their hangar and the walls caved in.

Tito planes in far corners of the hangar were not damaged. Air mail service from Omaha would not be hampered, officials said, the additional planes would have to be rushed from Chicago. Southwestern Minnesota seemed to bear the brunt of the storm in that state. One man was killed near Tracy, near which hundreds of farms were hard hit. St.

Peter suffered considerably from the storm which attained the proportions of a tornado in a fifty-mile gale from lake Benton to Lam-1 barton. In Chicago the torrential downpour, accompanied by wind of nearly forty miles an hour, flooded streets, tore down wires and seriously Impeded traffic. The storm caught a foursome at the Olympic Fields country club, killing a caddy and injuring another caddy and three players. A city fireman was killed by lightning, and a janitor attempting to close a window fell eleven floors to his death. Thousands of persons thronging the parks' and beaches in anticipation of a temperature of above 90 as predicted by the weather bureau were caught in the storm.

A panic ensued when a circus tent collapsed in South Chicago and caught a thousand persons, mostly children, under the wet canvas. BOMBARDMENT THREAT I Makes Chinese Do Justice and Show Respect to Slain U. S. Citizen. PEKING, June 22.

Under threat that he would bombard the city of Wanhsien, on the Yangtze river, in Szechwan province, the commander of the British gunboat Cockchafer, compelled the highest military leaders there to walk to the cemetery in full uniform behind 4he casket containing the body of Edwin C. Haw- ley, a United States citizen killed there by Chinese junkmen, and to attend the burial service for him. After the Chinese leaders had made their compulsory demonstration of respect to the murdered American, they carried out the orders nt the commandtr of the Cockchafer to arrest the two leading members of the Junkmen's Guild in Wanhsien, convey them to the spot on the beach where Hawley was beaten and execute them by shooting. WHY THE WEATHER) CUSE OF HAIL. Hall is precipitation occurring in the form of more or less spherical balls of ice, showing a typical concentric structure when cut open, like the layers of an onion.

Hailstones vary in size from tiny pellets to large balls or disks, two, three or even four inches in diameter. The size depends both on the intensity of the hall-producing conditions, and the extent to which the tones are melted in falling to the ground. A hailstorm is essentially an Intense thunderstorm. The storm must furnish a sufficiently powerful ascending current to carry drops of water or small balls of wet Bnow upward to a height where the air is cold enough to freeze them. The concentric layer structure of hailstones suggests repeated accretions and freezing, as if the stone had been carried up and then drop I and carried up again several times.

Large hail stones may show seven or eight layers around a central core, and some with 20 to 25 layers have fallen. Great thunderstorm clouds include the necessary strong tip-draft and turbulent air currents required for hail formation. thermore, measurements of ihe height of these clouds in the warm season show that their tops tower well up into freezing regions.

Fire of unknown origin broke out about one o'clock, this morning in it. vacant house at Billings Bridge, owned and formerly occupied by Mr. R. J. Carter, who at present resides in the city.

As the house was near several other frame houses there was for a time considerable danger of it spreading, but firemen from number 10 station arrived with a chemical stream in time to prevent this. The building was completely destroyed with a loss of about 11.500. Mrs. Wm. Sherman and her daughter and son-in-law, Mr.

and Mrs. H. Backs, who reside next to the destroyed house, had Just retired when they noticed fire out of a window of their house. An alarm was at once spread and within a few minutes the neighbors were out with buckets. Gallant efforts on the part of these, along with the firemen under Capt.

Dicks, prevented the spread of the fire to Mrs. Sherman's residence, though one side of it Was badly scorched. The house was a mass of flame when it was first noticed and none of the neighbors are able to attribute any cause to the fire. Facing Maze of Claims on Eve of Big Convention (Continued from Page One.) A tentative platform was almost ready today for consideration of the resolutions committee, but the group of leaders which has drafted it recognized that a number of its planks especially those dealing with foreign relations, the Ku Klux Klan and law enforcement are likely to form the basis of vigorous and even bitter controversy before they are finally adopted. The traditional party requirement of a two-thirds vote to select a nominee remains the center of gossip over the possibility of a rules fight.

Proposals to replace it with a rule permitting nomination by a simple majority are advanced openly by few, but they keep bobbing anon on the churning surface of pre-convention talk. The general expectation of a lengthy convention was emphasized by the tentative state of the prcgram worked out by the managers. Conferences yesterday failed to bring a definite decision whether the keynote address of Senator Harrison of Mississippi, as temporary chairman, should be made at the opening ses-sioif or put off until night se it could be heard by a larger radio audience than it could reach in daytime. Like other features of the program this was left more or less to be shaped by the course of events. New York Stirs Itself.

New York, which has absorbed the thousands of convention visitors with scarcely a ripple, began today to more visible signs of the affair, including the annual parade of the police. Are and street cleaning departments of the city on Fifth avenue and a dinner at which Mayor Hylan will deliver bis address of welcome. The complicity involving the dozen or so candidates today remained outwardly at least as cloudy as ever. Each cl the various headquarters reiterated its expressions of confidence. The McAdoo and Smith forces drove forward with new energy to strengthen their lines and the Underwood camp found encouragement in the arrival of thelrchief-tain.

The West Virginia supporters of John W. Davis meanwhile pressed on with their campaign for delegates. and friends of Senator Glass of ir-ginla professed to see an advantage for him in the situation exemplified by prediction that neither McAdoo, Smith nor Underwood would be nominated. They expressed confidence that the field would eventually narrow down to Davis and Glass and that the Virginian would come out ahead. Most of the dark horses, at the same time, are being kept more or less in the dark, with their managers expressing pleasure over the outlook.

Senator Ralston of Indiana will receive the votes of that state's delegation, Its leaders say, until the end. and a similar plan is announced by the Ohio delegation, which is instructed for former Governor James M. Cox. a plan which proved successful at San Francisco in 1920. In the platform discussion, differences of opinion center principally on questions of phraseology but in the case of the foreign relations plank somewhat wider divergence is indicated, Thomas Taggart.

On the Klan, the chief dispute, outwardly at least, has to do with the question of naming the organization or making a mere general declaration.
