Tokio, May 10.
A raid onthe headquarters of the so-called religious sect of the Omotokyo resulted in charges of lose majesty being brought against the leaders, who were arrested. Papers, "scriptures," images and altar fittings were seized and confiscated.
Secret rooms and passages were discovered in which was a box containing 2,000,000 yen in gold, and diamonds, together with valuable swords and other weapons.
Other discoveries that resulted suggest the existence of a colossal scheme, alleged to be of an antidynastic nature. The length of time that has elapsed between the discovery and the publication of the facts indicates that the movement has been squashed.—Reuter.
