The bright, short, IPN localized GRB 130504B (GCN 14560;  von Kienlin et
al., GCN 14561; Golenetskii et al.) triggered the Suzaku Wide-band
All-sky Monitor (WAM) which covers an energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV
at 07:32:03.063 UT (=T0).

The observed light curve shows a double-peaked structure starting at
T0+0.25 s, ending at T0+0.75 s with a duration (T90) of about
0.38 seconds.
The fluence in 100 - 1000 keV was 4.97(+0.15/-0.30) x10^-6 erg/cm^2.
The 1-s peak flux measured was 7.60 (+0.28/-0.54) photons/cm^2/s
in the same  energy range.

Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from T0 to T0+1
s is well fitted by a power-law with exponential cutoff model:
dN/dE ~  E^{-alpha} * exp(-(2-alpha)*E/Epeak) with
alpha       0.41 (+0.20/-0.22), and
Epeak      1321 (+139/-129) keV (chi^2/d.o.f. = 35.1/24).

All the quoted errors are at statistical 90% confidence level.
