They said Masabumi Ohashi was found in the Yasukuhi shrine compound Monday night bleeding badly from stomach and throat wounds he inflicted Samurai-style with a fish knife. He died today from loss of blood.

Ohashi left four notes. One complained that hardly any- one paid attention to the significance of author Yukio Mis-hima's suicide by hara-kiri in 1970. Mishima and members of his private army tried to arouse Japanese troops to stage a rebellion in the name of patriotism, then killed themselves when the troops did not heed them. Safe lective sigh and a smattering of applause and cheers went up from the crowd as the doctor pulled the brass-colored round from Pok Sarim's jaw and gingerly rushed it to 'a nearby sandbag container. The operation went so quickly that the army ordnance officer who was to take charge of the grenade showed up after the doctor had dS posed of it.
