Assistant Secretary of State Adee informs President Roosevelt’s secretary that Minister John Hicks has telegraphed from Chile. The Charleston carrying Secretary of State Elihu Root and his family has not yet arrived, possibly due to fog on the coast detaining the ship. Adee has conferred with Acting Secretary of the Navy Truman Handy Newberry about Root’s travel plans to Cartagena, Colombia, and thinks the Columbia will serve his purpose best. The trip has been organized accordingly, and Newberry has notified President Roosevelt. Adee has also notified Root (through Hicks) that Roosevelt hopes Root will go to San Francisco.
