Washington. April l.-(speciai.,--- Representative Richardson had an other talk today with President Taft in regard to the question of . new judge for the Northern Alabama UGs- trtct. He had heard that tho Presi- dent w9s going out of the city for . couple of days. and called to see just how matters stand.
 While he does not feel at liberty to give the details of the conversation, Judge Richardson says the situation is satisfactory. The President is con sidering carefully the qualifications of all the Republicans in the district whose names have been presented to him as successor to Judge Hundley, and in due time the nomination of that successor will be sent to the Senate.
 w.. H. Smith of Birmingham fs ex- pected here tomorrow or next day. II is understood that he will come be- cause President Taft wishes to sec him. It seems that certain people put out reports to the effect that Mir. Smiths health was not robust enough for him to perform the duties of judge in the event he should be selected as Judge Hundleys successor. His friends promptly denied that he was in poor physical condition, and they say Pres ident Taft will discover when he talks with him that he Is not in declinins health
 Hardly any one who has kept the run of this contest now believes that Judge Hundley has the slightest chance of a permanent appointment. The general opinion Is he has been eiim- mated.
 Word reaches washington that prac- tically all of the Federal oficehoiders in Northern Alabama have about reached the conclusion that his case is hopeiess. The Alabama Senators some weeks ago ascertained that he had no chance.
 Ex-Congressman Jesse Staliings. ar rived here this morning. He has beer one of the staunchest of Hundley's op ponents and thinks he Is knocked out
