Hi!
The #foo.bar# files are auto-save files emacs makes in case your system
crashes before you've saved the final version you're working on. To
delete them, rm '#foo.bar#' should work. However, I'd hesitate to delete
them until you've executed M-x recover-file in emacs to make sure you
don't have lost work saved in there.
Good luck,
