Senator Lodge enjoyed seeing Theodore Roosevelt, despite the naturalists, but cannot visit again until the fall. He is continuing to work on the language and amendments to the arbitration treaties. Lodge sees dangers in allowing arbitration on some issues, such as the Monroe Doctrine. He does not see the treaty passing in its current form and is working with Senator Root on a report explaining the treaty and amendments.
