President Roosevelt tells Joseph Bucklin Bishop he will speak to Secretary of War William H. Taft at once. He is trying to figure out how to speak with Henry Clay Frick, and Roosevelt is seeing if he can communicate with him through Pennsylvania Senator Philander C. Knox. Roosevelt tells Bishop that William Loeb was told “there is not the slightest chance of the Post being sold at all.”
