PARIS, July ga despatch from Buenos
Ayres says: The Tenth Regiment headed by
it's officers. reYoted this morning. and the
outbreak has become general. The rebels are
In complete possession Of their cantonments.
The Government. with the assistance Of the
police is trying TO isolate the insurgents. The
bourse and banks are closed.
Tho revolution in Buonos Ayres is probably
due In part to the state into which the finances
OF the Argentine Republic have fallen. The
financial troubles were brought before the
world about July /. when the London
Times published despatch from Buenos
Ayres. announcing that the National Bank
had suspended payment OF the quarterly div
idend tina. had previously passed the animal
meeting OF the Board Of Directors. English
capitalists are the chief creditors OF tho repub-
lie and the immediate effect Of this an
nouncement in the Times was big
drop in the shares OF the Argentine
national bank and in the cedulas." which are
the republics promises TO pay. 1t was at once
announced that what the directors Of the bank
had really done was to postpone the declarG-
ton Of the quarterly dividend until October
for prudential reasons. and there was some re-
covery in Argentine securities.
But while Argentine credit in Europe has
been good. it has lately been well known that
the country's finances were drifting into q
rather chaotic condition. The national
debt amounts to $336341.442, while the
provinces and the city OF Buenos AyrOS |
owe respectively $2l3.6s2.252 and $24,044.752. |
On this aggregate indebtedness OF 575,0GS, 446 |
an immense tribute in gold has an ]
nually been paid. chiefly to England
Tho interest charge on the nation0
debt amounted to s16,o24.592. With decline
In imports. the duties upon which are the
Governments chief source OF income. it has
required more than one-fourth the annual
revenues 10 meet the interest charge.
