Tokio, Mar, 27.
The closing of the forty-sixth session of the Imperial Diet came amidst a free fight upon the floor, in which all parties and factions took part. One member of an anti-Government faction was somewhat badly: mauled because he attempted to make a speech from the rostrum, impeaching the Premier and the Cabinet. He was pulled down, beaten and kicked.
The Speaker called a recess, but upon reassembling the trouble recommenced. Fortunately midnight struck and the Speaker's gavel fell, ending the session.—Reuter.
