Melvin Whiting, a missionary at ` Kobe, Japan. The letter was Written on the day "following the earthquake and stated that they were. all well and 'safe, The earthquake was very slight at Kobe with no dam- age. Enclosed was a copy of an "extra" edition of one of the .news-' paper printed in English telling of the catastrophe. Prom it the fol- lowing is taken: From early .. on ,the meriting of September ist, there was a strong in oh' wind Tokio, to and tlie weather was cloudy and disagreeably warns, Sud- denly, a, little before noon, there was a violent earthquake with its coilcre' in the bottom of the sea, east of;.

After ten or more shakes within an hour, the earthquake somewhat subsided, but the .treznours then com- menced again lasting until everting. Meanwhile, fires broke out in -dif- ferent parts of the city. Fanned by the strong,. wind 'which, was blowing, the fire spread in . all directions. As the water supply was cut, the water mains having been destroyed by the earthquake, there was no way of fighting the conflagration. , The following are some of the buildings destroyed by fire: The Crown Prince's palace at Takanawa, a part of the Peers' 'School, the build- ing of the 'Imperial Forestry of To. kyo, the Horne Office headquarters, the Tax . Supervision Bureau, the Metropolitan Police Board building, the Commercial University, - the Kyoritssu Women's Business School, the Imperial Theatre, the Yuralcuza Th eat`re, the Army Arsenal at Koisli- ikawa, the Powder Magazine at 1VIeguro, : the Military College, the Special Medical College, the Nihon Denki Company, all the newspapers n Kyobashi-l:u, the 12 -story bulki- ng in Asakusa, and other buildings iicluding banks, commercial houses and residences. numbering 200,000. The extent of the fire was greatest n 'Nihombashi-kw ana Asakusa- ku. Luggage and things taken out of the tuning- 'houses filled the streets. The number of dead is incalcul=' bye, the city of Tokyo presenting a readful scene: One of the. most Horrible 'occur- ances was; that of several thousand ands employed at the Government rinting 'Bureau were too late to eave the building before it was des- royed. Trey appear to have been inned down by the falling building. The Naigai Building, under con- truction,' was destroyed and about 50 men were instantly ,killed. It is eportecl that at the Nihon Denki a, b a d z• h P 1 t 2 12 Coinpany's factory, about 600 men employed there have been killed. Tokyo has no .electric light, but the city was lighted by the•fire which burned the city's buildings. There were no police in the city. The people were resigned to their fateand restrained themselves. It "Wag a pathetic sight to see them. `1 The number of lost children and sick 1 persons ` wandering about the- streets Was countless. There were many per- sons who had -not had their meals all day. It was impossible bye to cook rice to feed the afflicted.
