Senator Beveridge informs President Roosevelt that he has spoken with George Washington Cromer. Cromer reported that he had been approached by James Wolcott Wadsworth, who told him that Roosevelt “knew nothing about the bill” and “cared little.” Beveridge informed Cromer of Roosevelt’s letter, and Cromer “was amazed.” Beveridge suggests that in light of Wadsworth’s recent statements, perhaps Roosevelt should make his letter public that night.
