OBSTRUCTION.
PARLlAMENT'S HANDS TIED

Vienna, Dec. 29.-Count Tisza, the Hun
gariap premier, arrived in Vienna today
and will be received in special audience
by the emperor-king. 1t is believed that
the object of Count Tisza's visit is 10 ac-
quaint his majesty with the steps being
taken in view of the impending dissOlu-
ton of the Hungarian parliament Be-
fore returning TO Budapest tonight
Count T1sZa gave the Associated Press
the following statement regarding the
present critical situation in Hungarian
politics:
Passing Through Crisis.
The Hungarian parliament is now
passing through a crisis such as every
parliament in the world has had TO eX-
perience. Probably the legislatures OF
Hungary and Austria are the last to en-
gage in such a struggle The whole ques-
past the working OF the Hungarian par
lament has been paralyzed by the tao
ties of the minority. From october, 1907
to Mag. 1901 the parliament at Budapest
did absolutely nothing. This obstruction
was only rendered possible through the
standing Orders of the house, which were
made at a time when it was impossible
TO foresee the developments Of modern
parliamentary conflicts. Matters finally
reached a point where some radical re-
form was rendered absolutely necessary
If parliamentary government was to con-
tinue. Hence the introduction of the So
called Tex daniel. which was a prOVi-
SiOnal modification of the standing or
ders under which obstruction was easily
possible. The lex daniel applied only
20 certain urgent measures before the
parliament, and was intended only to
pFecede the introduction later in the SeS-
sion of the new definitive standing or

Andrassy's Attitude.

The electoral situation is rendered more
acute by the fact that number of in
fluential members of the Liberal party,
headed by former Premier Andrassy. have
left the government not because they ap-
prove of obstruction, but as a protest
against Count TisZas method in forcing
the passage of the lex daniel and mis-
action in bringing about dissolution of
the parliament.
The present parliamentary complications
in Hungary, coupled with the ministerial
crisis in Austria. finds conditions pecu-
larry unfortunate at this juncture when
the dual mOparChy is engaged in the ne
gOtiatiOn of new commercial treaties re-
curing the closest attention of both the
Austrian and Hungarian ministers.
The last sitting of the present Hun
gdrian parliament will be held on Tues
day. but it will be Of a purely formal
character, for the purpose Of being in
formed of the hour when the king Will de-
liver his speech from the throne at the
HOfburg the next day.

Proceeding Was Irregular.

The premier frankly admitted that the
lex daniel was forced through the house
in an irregular manner. but he contended
that such course was absolutely neces-
sary.
The great question at the present mo-
ment,' he continued, lis TO enforce the
will of the majority and to end an intOl-
cradle state of affairs under all circum-
stances. The only alternative left to
the government is TO appeal TO the ma
ton. We feel confident of obtaining a
favorable verdict
Meanwhile the opposition is preparing
a vigorous election campaign One of
their chief contentious is that the gov
eminent Is acting illegally in dissolving
the parliament when the next budget
cannot be voted as the law requires They
accuse Count TisZa of forcing the mon

there may be some Unseemly incidents

lent scenes may be anticipated during the
polling. No secret ballot system exists
