Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William H. Taft

President Roosevelt tells President-Elect Taft that he was recently approached by Austrian Ambassador Ladislaus Hengelmüller von Hengervár, who was concerned about a telegram that Taft and his wife, Helen Herron Taft, allegedly sent to the Serbians. While Roosevelt does not know anything about the incident, he offers his opinion on the situation in the Balkans, and says that the Austro-Hungarian empire has done a good job governing Bosnia and Herzegovina, and that immediate annexation of these states to Serbia would be a disaster.

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William H. Taft

President Roosevelt informs President-Elect Taft that he will see Austrian Ambassador Ladislaus Hengelmüller von Hengervár at once to clear up the issue. Some newspapers had reported that Taft and his wife, Helen Herron Taft, had sent a message to a Serbian women’s association, and while it did not seem serious apparently invited anxiety in Austria-Hungary. Roosevelt teases Taft that while he is making up his cabinet, Roosevelt spent the morning testing the rifles for his African safari, and says that “life has compensations!” In a handwritten note at the end, Roosevelt comments on Spencer F. Eddy, who is currently envoy to Romania.

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William Austin Wadsworth

President Roosevelt tells William Austin Wadsworth that he believes the Boone and Crockett Club is the right kind of organization to undertake the planning of an international hunting exhibition proposed by Austrian Ambassador Ladislaus Hengelmüller von Hengervár in two enclosed letters. Roosevelt believes the United States should be represented by the type of men who belong to the club, and that undertaking such a project would be a good opportunity to justify its existence. Roosevelt suggests a few men to appoint to a committee.

Letter from William H. Taft to Theodore Roosevelt

President-Elect Taft tells President Roosevelt about the Ohio senatorship, saying that “all’s well that ends well.” Although Taft’s brother, Charles Phelps Taft, will not be the senator, Taft’s main concern was the exclusion of Joseph Benson Foraker, who he believes would greatly interfere with his administration if he were to be in the Senate. Taft is not completely satisfied with the selection of Theodore E. Burton as senator, but accepts the result. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge has visited Taft recently, and has discussed Massachusetts politics. Taft once again reassures Roosevelt that while his wife, Helen Herron Taft, did receive a message from a group of Serbian women, she declined to offer her support and was judicious about her reply.

Francis also reports that another Vienna newspaper announced Hengelmüller’s trip to Budapest to discuss how to restrict emigration from Hungary to America, which is greater than emigration from Austria because of the manufacturing opportunities there and the lack of such industry in Hungary.
