French Senator Estournelles de Constant describes to President Roosevelt the itinerary for his upcoming trip to the United States. He will be delivering a speech in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on the occasion of the inauguration of the Carnegie Institute, and will also be visiting friends in New York, New York, and Washington, D.C., including Nicholas Murray Butler, J. J. Jusserand, Elihu Root, and Joaquim Nabuco.
