BUENOS AYRES EXCITED.
President ProrOgues Congress and
4dOptS Budget.

Buenos Ayres, Jan. 26.-Great excitement pre-
walls here owing to the issuance of an Executive
decree closing the extraordinary sessions of
Congress and putting into effect for the current
financial year the 1907 budget. This extreme
measure. which seems to meet general approval.
was caused by the obstructive attitude of
majority in the Senate, owing to non attend
ance of government members with the result
that neither the budget nor other legislation
could be dealt with, the government being left
powerless to meet ordinary expenditures.
President Alcorta, in giving these reasons for
the issuance of the decree, announces that the
forces of law and order are prepared promptly
10 suppress any subversive violent movement
on the part of the opposition. No serious
trouble however, is expected.
