SPAIN IS ACTIVE.

Madrid, Oct 10.-Spain has taken
the final step to quell revolt and
stem an attempt to overthrow the
monarchy. The first army reserve
has been called out and King Alfonso
has announced his determination to
assume his prerogative as command
er-in-chief of the entire Spanish army.
1t was the calling out of the first
army reserve which precipitated the
1909 riots. which resulted III hundreds
being killed or executed and thous-
ands Of arrests.
Premier Cabalejasi today explained
the calling out of the reserve as imper-
ative in view of the critical condition
in Spain.
1t Caused Excitement.
The news received here today that
Manuel, the deposed king Of Portugal,
would probably 60 to Villa Manrique
in Spain caused great excitement. 1t
was feared that his presence in Spain
would arouse the anti-Monarchists to
immediate violence and lead to clash
es with the Portuguese republicans
along the frontier.
The order calling out the reserve
troops was published today in the
Graceta. the official gazette of the
Kingdom.
Manuel is known to have received
many dispatches from Madrid but the
contents of them are not known.

cry step of the Spanish republican
leaders. Secret meetings of anti Mon.
archists. republicans and terrorists
held in the residences of Senors Ler-
roux, Soriano, Perez Galdos and other
republicans and socialists had been
attended by agents of the government.
The news today that Alfonso was
preparing to take the field at the
head of his army to. put down an up
rising indicated eloq6ently the tension
which exists.

WILL REDUCE ZOO"
Board OF Works Decides There
Are Too Many Animals at
Glen Miller, Now.
PUBLIC MAY RAISE A KICK

Because of the expense attached to
keeping the large menagerie at Glen
Miller park, the number of animals
will be cut down at once, according to
decision reached by the board Of
works this morning The elk herd,
at present numbering a dozen. will
be reduced to three. two does and a
buck. Three of the animals have al
ready been sold and it is the pur-
pose of the board to ge rid of the 9TH
ers before the first of the year.
The monkeys have been getting
"soused" occasionally, according to a
report at the board meeting. 1t was
thought best for this reason to get
rid Of the old ones either by selling
them or using chloroform, and accept
the offer of citizen of Richmond who
will present the park with a male
monkey. The whisky for the monkeys
Is used as tea, the present monk"
family using about pint per week
Another decrease will be made in
the deer herd, which now numbers
something over a dozen animals The
coyotes will be sold or killed with the
possible exception of one.
1T would be blessing if the bear
would die," said Mayor Zimmerman
this morning. Somebody is going to
fall in that pit some day and then the
city will regret it ever had bear"
When the boards decision is known
-
be many objections made. The ami
mails are a popular feature at the
park and the people would like to see

creased

Budget Ordinance for Next
Year and Shed Ordinance
Will Be Considered.
4 DISCUSSION PROBABLE
VARIOUS APPROPRIATIONS PRO.
WDED IN THE 1911 BUDGET Or
0INANcE ARE TO BE OBJECTS
OF ATTACK.

The 1911 budget ordinance and an
ordinance permitting sheds to be built
over the side walks on all thorough
fares excepting Main street, comes
up for third reading at council meet
ing tonight and a big discussion is
very probable on both ordinances.
Several weeks ago the city tax rate
was fixed at 1.10. one cent less than
the rate which the budget ordinance
provided. For this reason some of
the councilmen are in favor Of cutting
some OF the appropriations, while 9TH
ers are standing for passage of the
budget as 1t Is and then il necessary,
borrowing some money. Several spec
ial items. including $500 for bridges,
$4,000 for new roof on the city build
ing, $4,000 for a new crematory, and
few other appropriations are expect
ed to be the ones attacked.
Opposed by the Mayor.
The shed ordinance is in the form
OF an amendment to an ordinance pro-
hibiting sheds being placed on any
side walks in the city, passed in 1889.
For various reasons this ordinance
has not been adhered to closely and
q number Of sheds now exist in the
city. The amendments makes the
building OF shed coverings to side
walks still a violation of the ordfn.
ance. Mayor Zimmerman will strong.
ly oppose the passage of the amend
ment.
City Attorney Gardner is working
on an ordinance providing that at
practically all railroad crossings of
the city there shall be watchmen. The
ordinance will provide that the men
shall be strong. not weak and infirm
with age. This ordinance will include
both the c. & o. and the Pennsylva-
MIA.
There are some other minor mat.
ters to be brought up, including the
proposed annexation of Benton
Heights. on which the public grounds
committee will report favorably. and
the third readings Of several minor
ordinances.
