Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to George von Lengerke Meyer
President Roosevelt confides in Postmaster General George von Lengerke Meyer the reason for Henry Clay Frick’s dissatisfaction, information he learned from Frank B. Kellogg. Frick had requested that Kellogg postpone the trial on the Edward Henry Harriman suit and was “greatly irritated” when Kellogg said that not only was such a postponement impossible but it was also improper for Frick to make the request. Kellogg feels certain that Frick planned to use the time for dealings on the stock market.
