Ambassador Meyer informs President Roosevelt that he received his letter from May 2, 1905, and Meyer is going to send Secretary of State Hay a letter covering the situation in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Relations are good with Russians; however, Czar Nicholas II has issued an edict on the defense of the Russian Empire. Meyer encloses an article from a Russian newspaper entitled “Our New Representative in America,” which describes Russia’s international relations from Russia’s point of view.
