The vibration seems to have premated the island transversely. In addition to the hundreds of large public and private buildings destroyed, which include a large number of Jap- anese government buildings, Japanese and foreign naval hospitals, arsenals, plants and newspaper offices, it was learned through Osaka that the Italian and French embassies in Tokio were destroyed. Nothing has been learned of the fate of the American embassy and its staff. Eight of Tokio's fifteen wards are known to be almost totally wiped out, while the remainder are largely in ruins or burned over, the total num- ber of buildings destroyed being placed at 200,000 fta' \the ctty and suburbs.
