Attorney General Wickersham does not feel that he should let the original copies of the files relating to the Earle-Kissel sugar trust matter leave the possession of the Department of Justice, but would be willing to send them to New York District Attorney, Henry A. Wise. Theodore Roosevelt would then be able to communicate with Wise and view them at his convenience via a messenger to his office.
