Steele to Remove Prisouer..

United States District Attorney Steele has taken up correspondence with the Sheriff of Madison County at Hunts vile looking to the removal of Fed eral prisoners from the Birmingham and Anniston jails to that place. The Sheriff at Huntsville advises that he can accept one hundred prisoners and 1t is not improbable that Judge o. R. Hundley. of the United States Court, will direct the removal of the prison CTS. There are five or six prisoners in the Jefferson County jail and four or five in Anniston. Among the lat ter Is the former postmaster of Annis- ton. J. M. Ragan.
 The cause of the inquiry is said to be the general statements made by Jail Inspector Bragg who asserts, that the jail in Birmingham is not large enough for the number of prisoners detained here and that the sanitary conditions and the ventilation is not what 1t should be for such a number of men. Dr. Bragg recently announced that he would remove seventy-five men from the county jail because of conditions
