Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Herbert H. D. Peirce

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Herbert H. D. Peirce

President Roosevelt gives Herbert H. D. Peirce a message to communicate to Sergei Witte, Roosevelt believes Witte misunderstood his previous message, and attempts to make clear his proposal for Russia paying an indemnity to regain control of the northern part of Sakhalin Island and repatriate military prisoners. The exact price can be decided through further negotiations with Japan–the current issue is simply to agree in principle to such an exchange. Roosevelt believes Russian Emperor Nicholas II should be shown the telegram directly to avoid miscommunication.
