Charles J. Bonaparte alerts Theodore Roosevelt that Bonaparte has misstepped “on the field of official duty of a Sub-Committee of a Committee on the Reception of Invited Guests” by arranging for Roosevelt’s reception, but has rectified the situation by inviting this “sub-Committee”—Judge John Carter Rose and W. Hall Harris—to informally dine with them, alongside his wife. In a post-script, he remarks that the Baltimore Sun requested Bonaparte to give a letter of introduction to their New York correspondent so that the reporter might interview Roosevelt on his train down to Baltimore, though he declined the request.
