Francis E. Leupp tells President Roosevelt that the Democrats are making it difficult to have the appointments of William Demos Crum confirmed, but he has heard that Senator George C. Perkins will vote to confirm if Roosevelt and Booker T. Washington are in favor of Crum. Leupp also reports that Rollo Ogden is anxious to know what will be done about William Michael Byrne, whose reappointment as district attorney for Delaware was opposed by the Senate Judiciary Committee.
