William L. Ward asks Theodore Roosevelt to indicate a time and place, such as a friend’s house, where they might talk privately, without the newspapers knowing they are meeting. Ward met with Herbert Parsons, who spoke of the possibilities of a third term, but Ward is satisfied with the results of the efforts in Washington.
