Garrett J. Benson tells Theodore Roosevelt he discussed the matter Roosevelt last wrote him about with Mr. McCabe, who tells him he heard the information from “some busy-body,” which is likely how it spread to the newspaper, and there is no truth to the matter. Benson says he will explain the situation to Robert H. Fuller.
