Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to A. J. Cassatt

President Roosevelt and Attorney General William H. Moody agreed with the Interstate Commerce Commission on an amendment to the Hepburn railroad rate bill that meets the point that A. J. Cassatt made in his letter. However, Senator Philander C. Knox disagrees with the amendment and prefers the bill as-is, and Roosevelt has given up the effort to pass the amendment. Roosevelt believes that the Hepburn bill should be passed in its current form.
