Stewart L. Woodford relays a letter he received from Japanese Consul-General Kōkichi Mizuno regarding Admiral Heihachirō Tōgō’s anticipation of lunching with Theodore Roosevelt. Roosevelt had previously invited Tōgō to visit him at the White House, but Tōgō was prevented from doing so because of his duties as Chief of Naval Staff. He hopes to finally be able to have the honor of visiting Roosevelt, and Woodford hopes that Roosevelt will be able to make one of the suggested times work.
