Huntsville, Sell ma and Decatur to renew the fight against the confirmation of Oscar R. Hundley for the judgeship of the Unit ed States Circuit and District Court of the Northern District ot,Alabama.
 The Alabama federation is armed with documentary evidence which they will use in their fight against the Presidents appointee. one of their strong weapons being letter from the late Senator John T. Morgan to the late Senator Pettus refuting the alleged claim of the advocates of Judge Hund- ley that he had the endorsement ot Senator Morgan.
 The letter was written from Wash ington and is as follows:
 Dear General:-
 q enclose The Huntsville Tribune, Mir. Lanes paper. that you may not have seen. I know of no Democrat nor of any Republican who supports Mr. Hundley in Alabama, and could for Mir. O'Brien or Mir. Hundley, to make me assist in his confirmation. against the powerful current of gen. eral disapproval.
 T will stand with you on any line of action you may take in this mat ter.
