President Roosevelt is happy that E. W. Bloomingdale has seen Representative Herbert Parsons. After a few matters where Roosevelt has “had to disappoint him,” Roosevelt has followed Parsons’s suggestion to submit George S. Terry’s name for appointment as Assistant Treasurer of the United States. In the event that Terry is rejected, Roosevelt hopes Bloomingdale can be selected instead, but Roosevelt must speak to Parsons before making any promises.
