Lawrence F. Abbott thanks William Loeb for sending him copies of President Roosevelt’s letters to Senator Philander C. Knox and Patrick H. Grace, treasurer of Parlor City Lodge Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen. Abbott does not think The Outlook will comment on them because, due to the New York Times leak connecting Roosevelt with The Outlook, they want to be “particularly reticent.”
