many of the officials of the mine and families, who had fed for safety, have returned.
Further particulars of the disturbance sent by the newspaper correspondents state that the number of buildings burnt down on Wednes day night at Motoyama was 116, all of them being used as quarters by officials of the mine,
7 store houses, and 3 business-offices.
It was reported on Thursday morning that the rioters intended to attack the police-station, and demand the release of their leaders, who have been arrested, threatening that if their demand was ignored, they would make their way to Kotaki, and burn down the buildings there. The threat, however, does not appear to have been executed. Up to 2 o'clock an Thursday afternoon 30 rioters were arrested as 1ey came out of the pils by, police officials, who are keeping watch at the entrance,
Al about 7 o'clock on Thursday moming à body of over 100 rioters came down the hilb and attempted to force their way to the Sunokobashi pit, but were dispersed by the soldiers. The rioters were much, alarmed at the sight of the troops, and fled without offer. ing any resistance,
Mr. Minami, the proprietor of the mine, who was believed to have succumbed to the wounds
inflicted by the rioters, is reported to be still alive. We now learn that he is severely wounded about the head, and his recovery was despaired of by the daciors, but his condition
improved slightly on Wednesday night. On the following day Dr. Okamoto, President of
the Nihambashi Hospital in Tokyo, arrived and performed an operation, and though Mr. Minami is still unconscious, it is thought that he may recover,
On Thursday night the troops still remained inactive, merely taking up positions where a guard was deemed necessary. Hundreds of policemen were actively pursuing and arresting the rioters. About 15 of the miners fled into the (61 hills, hotly pursued hypolice. They took shelter aimong the racks, where they were defending themselves from attack. Up to 5 pm. on Thursday 300 rioters, who were in possession of dynamite, had been arrested,

said to be a grievance on the part of the workers there in regard to their treatment.. | Workers in the direction of the Tsado pits, while they stopped work on account of the outbreak, were paid as usual, but the employés at Motoyama were made th work. This dis crimination they declared unfair. On Wednes day the delivery of rice was due to the workers and a dispute arose with the officials of the mine in regard to the method of the delivery. this, combined with the discontent already fek at their treatment, led to the strike..
Describing the scene at Motoyama after the riots, the Asahi correspondent writes that the aspect of the places is ginomy and Jreary, The debris was still barning at 3 o'clock on Thurs day afternoon, In front of the medical office, which has escaped destruction, a Red Cross flag was flying, On the roads electric standards were strewn about. Those houses which escaped destruction by fire were blown up with dynamite. In front of the manager's office, the charred remains of a godown stood. The house of Mr. Minami, which stood on an elevation PLUSH-COVERED DRAWING ROOM behind the management office, was burnt to the CHAIRS, TEAKWOOD OVERMANTELS Sound, On the site of a charcoalstore, à large with BEVELLED GLASS, TEAKWOOD beap of glowing charchal was found, and the EXTENSION DINING TABLES and employés were warming themselves there CHAIRS, DINNER SERVICE, TEAK-
