Attitude of the Democrats Today. Representative Underwood was more specific as to what attitude the dem- ocrats may be expected to take when the house convenes tomiorrow. “If the regulars @nd ‘insurgents’ come together upon any basis which does not provide of election of a new committee on rules by the house and the omission of the speaker from that committee, the democrats will oppose it to a man,” he said. ‘What the outcome will be when the house convenes tomorrow no one to- night would venture accurately to pre- lican leaders are spar- ing no effort to get every regular re- lican absentee on the ground for the final test vote, if it comes. Al- though practically all of those who are unpaired have arrived, it was appar- ent that the leaders were not sure of their strength, or the issue would have come to a vote today. Claim of Insurgents on Final Vote. “insurgents” confidently claim that_when the final vote is taken on the Norris resolution their total vote will be 33, which combined with the full democratic vote would be more than a safe majority of the house. The democratic leaders, so far, have held their forces strictly in hand, and have on _every vote polled their full strength. Tomorrow morning at-9 o'clock the insurgent leaders will meet in the rooms of the ways and means committee. | Speaker Cann, on Comes Out Fresh from the Fight.
