During Cruise autopilot disconnected due to Hydraulic System 1 Off alert and 60% loss of hydraulic fluid in System 1. During configuration we lost more fluid and after landing and clearing the active runway we received the Hydraulic 1 Fail alert and had only .9 gallons of hydraulic fluid remaining in System 1. We elected to get towed to parking from Maintenance. No problems overall with the crew; ATC; or handling of the situation.
An MD-10 lost of #1 Hydraulic System. An emergency was declared and a normal landing ensued.
