Charles J. Bonaparte thanks Theodore Roosevelt for the “over-complimentary letter” regarding his speech. He heard that Ansley Wilcox hopes to have Roosevelt as a guest of the National Municipal League. As president of the organization, Bonaparte has tried to expand the scope of discussion to include general problems of good government. Roosevelt is welcome to speak at any meeting he attends. Bonaparte reports widespread concern about the attempted assassination of Mayor William Jay Gaynor.
