President Roosevelt provides Senator La Follette with an update on the matters he had contacted him about in relation to the Indian appropriation bill. Secretary of the Interior Ethan Allen Hitchcock believes he has the power to settle the Mrs. Lou Bumgarner matter equitably, and that there is no reason to fail to sign the bill. Hitchcock also ordered an immediate investigation into the other matter that La Follette mentioned to Roosevelt concerning the conduct of an assistant of Dawes Commissioner Tams Bixby.
