Frances Gold Is Carefully Guarded Ingenious Traps Protect Bui lion Underground. largest in all the worlds history, is more carefully guarded by ingenious mechanical protections than is any reigning king. A regiment of could never hope to steal a single bar of gold from these vaults, into which 2,000 guards of the Bank of France could retire and keep house in case of attack or war. Visitors Reputation Scanned. The Bank of France outwardly looks like any other bank; except that it is larger than most others in Europe. The thrill comes only in penetrating the gold vaults, flanked by an official who has previously instructed detectives to look up your reputation. Alongside and bringing up the rear is a platoon of uniformed guards, each intrusted with opening some portion of the great underground labyrinth. If one man is mising it is impossible to penetrate the vaults. All the keys are useless if one is missing. The entrance to the gold vault is by one of a series ot shafts, most of which are dummies leading nowhere. The shaft for the descent has walls 15 feet thick of steel and concrete, waterproofed and ventilated. This shaft is sunk through solid rock over which, not far below the surface runs an underground creek. This creek is really mud and sand in motion. It is allowed to run freely safe-blowe- Paris.

At various levels on the way down it is necessary to leave one shaft for another, passing through great steel and concrete doors. Some of them are revolving, others are pushed in and out like corks. These are the most ingenious barriers. At first approach the wall appears to b'e solid, but an electric trolley runs up, attaches itself to a ring and backs this away, pulling from the bottle-neccork of steel and congreat crete. The same trolley pushed the cork uto place. There are ten such impregnable doors of all sorts, each more Ingenious in conception than another,- before the gold Is reached 80 feet below. There, 90 feet under Paris, are the streets of gold. Bullion is constantly arriving. The minute anything goes wrong underground warning bells clang all the way up to the surface, and at police streets overheadquarters on near-bhead a special signal rings.
