TOKYO, Jan. 19.-The government has issued report stating that the loss of life during the eruption at Kagoshima was eleven killed and that 2,000 buildings were destroyed. The statement has caused much surprise here, as it is kenerally known that thousands were killed and that the refuges reaching here were in many cases badly burned and that more than eleven have died since coming here for refuge. The government owns and controls the news service out of this country and is sending out false statements to the press of Japan and foreign countries though for what reason is unknown.
