here today over rumors that the MUIR
der was but the prelude to an anti.
government uprising throughout
Spain.
The anarchist element which is
probably stronger in Spain than in
any other country in the world, was
known for long time to have been
awaiting an opportunity to overthrow
the government and establish In Its
place system of communes under
no central authority.
Whether Zarrate's act waa taken
purely on his own initiative or as the
result of widespread conspiracy was
not made clear in any dispatches re-
ceiyed. But in either case it was
deemed likely that the revolutionists
would avail themselves OF it to at.
tempt a revolt.
There has been no question for sew
eral years past, well informed men
said, that King Alfonso's tenure was
very insecure and the concensus OF
opinion that 1t has been only a aues.
ton Of time before some untoward In.
cident, like strike, war, or an as.
sassination, would precipitate a strong
enough and sufficiently united out.
break to unseat him.
