NENTAN I. STEELE NAMED
BY TAFT TO TAKE PLACE
OF POSTMASTER CARTER

Washington, February 25.-(Special.)-
The President today appointed N. l..
Steele postmaster at Birmingham to sue
ceed Postmaster Carter.
Tie appointment came as a complete
surprise to Alabama politicians, none of
whom had any idea that Mr.. Steele's
name was under consideration. Mr..
headed by Messrs. Thompson and Barker
and a close personal friend of Judge Os-
car Hundley, In whose interest he testified
il. the famous Hundley case before the
Senate judiciary committee. 1t is an or
eanizaIion victory clean through, as much
so as the recent appointment of Marshal
Walker at Montgomery.
MI. Steees ndme has only been under
consideration hy the postoffice department
for a few days. 1t was suggested early
in the week by the Alabama referees and
Postmaster General Hitchcock decided to
name him. Mr. Steele came to Washing
ton this morning ard after an interview
with the Fosl rldsier General the nominal
tion was sent to the Senate. 1t was today
referred to tire postoffice committee,
where aEy charges against Mr. Steele
may Gc fiieo for hearing.
Senator Johnston OF Alabama said to-
day that he did not know of any opposi-
ton to Mr.. Steeie's confirmation, so the
nomination may be favorably reported
within two weeks, confirmation following
shortly after. Mr. Steele will probably be
able to take charge of the postoffce by
the 10Th.
Mr. Steele is the secretary of the re-
publican state executive committee. He
