Osaka, Sept. 4th.—Soo vast an area of Japen has been dovastated by the great- est earthquake in the history of this courtry that it will belong beiore the ae- tral loss of life is known. The most re- liable estimates of the dead to the pres- ent report is 20(-,000 t 5 3320,000. Tokio and Yokohama,9 vith surrounding towns which formed thie centre tof the distuar- bances, are almost cumpletely in ruins. For cwo days Toiio was swept by flames and apart from the loss of life eaused directly through the falling of buildings, thousands must bave perishel in their at-erapts to make their way through th= fire zones and other thousands throu:a exhaastion. Yokhama, Tokio’s busy port, is a city destroyed. Probably more comnplete destruction has been wrought there then ia the capital itself, for its great docks were torn asunder, its shipping wracked, its public buildings and homes levelled to the earth All advicas received here indicate a succes sioy of earta disturbances in that area, extending for many miles inland and to the Norih, and everywhere the first destructive forces were augmented by explosions, the bursting of water mains, the overflow of rivers and the terrible overpowering rush of tidal waves. De- tails of geographical changes are lack- iny, butitis reported that new islaads kave been forced up from the bed of the ocean, while whole sections have dJis- appeared. Rivers are said to have changed their churses and volcanoes are erupting in various districts. The dis- as:cer spared none who stond in its path. Many members of noble families have r*risned, but thus far the only notabla reign resident 1n the list of killed is the American Consul at Yokohama, Max D.
