Lambert will be in New York soon and can meet with Roosevelt then to discuss opium morphine and cocaine. Lambert has been at his club hunting moose and caribou. He recently shot and killed a very large moose, which reminded him of when Roosevelt killed a hippo on a hunting trip.There are many beavers at the club now, and Lambert suggests Roosevelt visit to study them.
