(Continued from Page 1.)
BERLIN, Oct. 5. Tho downfall
of King Manuel and the loss of tho
Porta gueso throne was caused' by a
-woman, Mile. Caby des Lisa, a French
dansouse, accordlngotq a story told by
high government officials hero to
day, r
Advices from the German embassy
at Lisbon are to the effect tint King
Manuel flaunted tho woman in tho
faces of his followers nnd heaped
Jewels and money upon her so lav
ishly as to almost drain the Portu
guese treasury. Manuel Is alleged to
have given her nearly a million dol
lars in jewels alone.
According to tho story, he made
no pretenso at concealing his rela
tions with his mistress. He lodged
her at tho palp.ee anad Bho accom
panied him everywhere
A Reveler by Night.
King Manuel frequently visited
Paris, and it ie reported that excur
sions to tho under-world were fea
tures of these visits. Gaiety mark
ed the excursions, according to the
officials telling the story here.
It was on one of these jaunts, It is
said, that ho met Mile. De3 Lisa.
Since then he has spent most of his
time with hor, neglecting tho king
dom's affairs and disregarding the
growing discontent of his subjects.
Tho king's personal extravagance
and tho extravagance of his mother
and grandmotLer also added to the
discontent, t is alleged.

Spain Ready for "War.
SAN SEBASTION, Oct. 5. The.of
flccrs of the northern army corps aro
reported today to have received tele
grams from Madrid ordering them to
prepare for active service. The or
ders are taken as an Indication that
Madrid officials have advanco Infor
mation of tho Portuguese revolution
and aro preparing to put down a
similar rebellion in Spain by the
most drastic measures.
Activity is noted in army circles
throughout Spain and royalists are
fenrful that an uprising Is Imminent.
Couriers from Portugal assert that
bloody fighting Is In progress and
that the revolutionists everywhere
aro attacking the royalists. The fight
ing which started In Lisbon has
spread to other Portuguese cities.

by tho authorities.
Tho police do not bollovo that tho

Monument to Dead.
Plans nr,e "being considered today
for tho burial of nearly all tho vic
tims of the Times disaster in one
large plot at Hollywood cemetery
and to erect over their bodies a mam
moth granite shaft upon which will
bo carved a record of tho catastrophe
In which they lost their lives, to
gether with their names, constitut
ing a Times "honor roll." Tho plan
was suggested by General H. G. Otis,
owner of the Times. He has offered
to defray all expenses Incident to tho
funerals and has asked tho relatives
of the victims for permission to erect
tho shaft.
Night Editor Churchill Harvoy
Elder and J. Wesley Reaves already
have been burled. The other victims
will bo laid away as fast as the work
of Identification can proceed.
More Bodies Found.
Another body, making a total of
16, was removed from tho ruins this
morning. It was identified as that
of Grant Moore, a machinist.
Moore's body was the first recov
ered that waa not charred beyond
facial recognition. It was found near
the north wall of the building. ,A
handkerchief, clasped in both hands,
was over the face. It is believed that
he smothered before the flames
reached htm.
Four bodies were recovered dur
ing the night. Two of them were
partially identified as .W. G. Tun
stall, a linotype operator, and Charles
Haggerty.
All He at the morgue awaiting
burial.
Tho commission of dynamite ex
perts"appoInted by Mayor Alexander
to examine the ruins in behalf of
the city probably will be able to pass
upoa the explosion today.
The excavators have almost reach
ed the ground In the alley where the
explosion is believed to have occur
red. The experts then probably will
bo ablo to determine the nature of
tho explosion, giving tho detectives
further material to work with.
