Top Japan Banker Found Dead

TOKYO (AP) - Saying he was "at the limit," a top executive in charge of efforts to root out corruption at Japan's scandal-plagued central bank hanged himself today, the latest suicide in a widening probe. The Bank of Japan's chief director, Takayuki Kamoshida, 58, was found hanging from a nylon cord in a Tokyo apartment early this morning, a police official said on condition of anonymity. A note found in the apartment said: "I'm tired. I'm at the limit." Kamoshida, who is not known to be under investigation himself, was the central bank's top manager.
