Democrats and Insurgents Combine
Against Speaker Cannon and De-
feat Him in Hard Fight.
A SENSATIONAL BATTLE
One of the Most Spectacular Legis-
lative Fights Seen in Congress
Since Days of Civil War.

Washington, March 19-Joseph
Guerney Cannon, of Danville, ILL.,, is
still speaker of the house of repre-
sentatives. But he lost today the
ancient prestige and weapon Of that
office when the allied republican in
surgents and democrats took from
him not only the Craftsmanship Of, but
even membership in the all-powerful
committee on rules, the chief asset
in his stock Of power.
Amid scenes OF widest disorder, for
the like Of which one must go back
to the exciting days just prior to the
civil war-perhaps even those times
might not duplicate 1.-THE veteran
speaker, almost ~ years old, stood
erect and defiant, his head "bloodied
but unbowed' at the end, when big
Texas democrat accepted the speak
ers daring challenge and introduced
resolution lifting him out of the
speakership and the republican regu-
lars and insurgents, with few excep-
tions, rallied with almost unbroken
party front and gave him vote
which almost offset the Reputation
of Cannonism.'
This is what happened:
By vote of 19l to l55, the repub-
lican insurgents voting solidly with
the democrats for the house amend
ment resolution of Mr.. Norris (re-
publican) OF Nebraska, requiring re-
organization of the rules committee.

to 10 and declaring the speaker in
eligible to Membership thereon, was
