Maine--Bar Harbor

Attorney General Bonaparte tells President Roosevelt that District Attorney Edwin Walter Sims has asked for a postponement in Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis’s case, perhaps due to Landis’s behavior. The press covering Secretary of State Elihu Root and Thomas Fortune Ryan has been sensationalized, and Bonaparte feels it is unfortunate that Root is taking the blame on the whiskey situation. Bonaparte will get an update from Department of Justice Agent Peyton Gordon about Agent Ormsby McHarg. As he will be traveling, Bonaparte sends his forwarding address. He encloses telegrams from Assistant Attorney General Marsden C. Burch regarding Judge Frank Sigel Dietrich.

President Roosevelt hopes Arthur Hamilton Lee can visit this summer and is glad to hear about Prince Louis of Battenberg. If the British fleet is at Annapolis, Maryland, around October 1, Roosevelt will meet it there. Roosevelt tells Lee not to worry about a “possible contest” between England and the United States, as he treats it “as out of the question.” If the fleet is able to come between October 1 and October 18, Roosevelt will be able to receive the officers at the White House.
