Letter from Otto Gresham to Theodore Roosevelt
Otto Gresham encloses clippings from the Chicago Chronicle and relays that the newspaper is owned by John R. Walsh, president of the Chicago National Bank. Gresham discusses the electoral vote in Illinois, Indiana, and the northwest United States. Gresham believes the Illinois delegation will be for Grover Cleveland and General James B. Weaver, but will be contended by citizens in favor of Mayor Carter H. Harrison. Gresham notes his recent luncheon with James H. Eckels.
