House insurgents were somewhat per-
turbed to-day over the published in
timattons that they We're to forego

and several of the leaders declared
very enthusiastically that their inten-
tions were exactly the opposite. Their
agreement. reached at their Monday
night meeting, goes no further than
the outlining OF. purpose to support
unanimously the various administra.
ton measures now before Congress-.
They declared that the insurgents
are agreed to a man in their fight
against the House rules, and will con-
ttnue 1t without cessation. They also
assert that the attitude which they
have taken on this subject can have
no effect upon the administration leg
islative program. OF which they claim
to be original champions In the House.
Whether the insurgents will attend
any Republican caucus. rs called for
by the resolution adopted yesterday by
the New York delegation Is doubtful.
Many of them state that they sec no
necessity of a caucus on something
upon which they are already pledged.
Representative Norris. OF Nebraska,
one of the insurgent leaders, said the
only purpose such caucus would have
was to introduce some sort of ''joker"
into the Presidents measures, or into
the method OF procedure to which the
insurgents would not and the country
could not subscribe. He characterized
1t as simply trick for some Interior
