Captain McIntyre writes to President Roosevelt about a cable received from Secretary of War Taft from Cuba. Taft is concerned about vacancies in the Philippine Commission and recommends the appointment of W. Morgan Shuster. Though brash, Shuster is qualified and is popular among Filipinos. McIntyre forwards all of the cablegrams regarding the appointment. He asks that Roosevelt reply with his decision so he can update Taft.
