KUKER WILL LOSE JOB.
President Revokes Appointment of
Kuker to Postmastership in Sena-
tors Home.

Washington, June 9.-Louis Kuker
will be ousted from the postmaster
ship at Florence. His name was sent
in several months ago by President
Taft, but confirmation has been held
up in the senate by Senator Smith.
The president today ordered the post
master general to withdraw the nomi-
nation. This was done at the instiga-
ton of Senator Smith and in his pres
ence the president dictated the order
of withdrawal. Senator Smith declin-
ed to recommend any one for the Of
fee, but will do so later.
His chief objection to Kuker, he
said, was that the president had made
the nomination without his approval,
which was contrary to the precedents
in such matters and not in conformity
with the established principle that a
senator shall have the privilege Of
naming the postmaster in his home
town. President Taft stated that he
intended hereafter to conform to this
rule, declaring that the several nomi-
nations in senator's home towns here
tofore made we're in the rush and con-
fusion of a large number of appoint
ments to which he was unable to give
his personal attention. A similar case
was that of the postmastership at Biz
mingham, Ala, the nomination to
which was withdrawn at the instiga-
ton of Senator Johnston. Unless q
name is sent in shortly for the Flor
ence position the Office will be vacant
filed, of course, by the assistant until
a postmaster is named. Within the
next Few days Senator Smith will send
a list of several names of men accept
able to him for the Office, from which
it is expected the president will make
