Cy Warman begs President Roosevelt’s forgiveness for an imprudent article that he wrote. Responding to a statement that the railroad produces nothing, Warman wrote an essay defending the railroad, and in doing so borrowed a press dispatch from Panama that reflected poorly on it and Roosevelt. Warman regrets this, and hopes to apologize and try to correct his mistake.
