WASHINGTON. d. c., June s.
After an absence of over FIVE weeks.
during which time he has Travelled
thousands of miles and visited the
most remote points of the far West
and Northwest. President Roosevelt
is due to reach the national capital at
an early hour this evening.
Just how long the president will
spend in Washington upon his return
is not known at the White House The
supposition is that he will not tarry
many weeks at his offices. and that he
and his family will be installed at
their summer home in Oyster Bay ear
ly in July. probably the first of the
| month. There is nothing in official
affairs to detain the president here
later than that time. IL is stated. With
The exception of some rather import
ant appointments, which may be
quickly disposed Of, there has not de-
yeloped much of Importance to hold
him here during the hot months of
/ summer.
1t is not thought to be likely that
the president will take up for the
| present the appointment of an 18TH
mian canal commission. The ap-
pointments involved in this commits
sion are the best that will be open to
the president in many years. AT least
the politicians and former oliicehold-
ors think so, The president has said
| that the question of the route of the
canal would have to be settled and
other arrangements made before he
will appoint a commission. The set
| tlement of the question of the route
appears to be as far away as ever. it
is pointed out. and there is not much
probability of the president anticipat-
ing something, in the doing of which
he might make mistake. The ap-
pointment of canal commission now
looks to be a long ways of. The Co
lombian congress is to assemble much
later than was thought several
months ago. and the opposition in
that country to the ratification of the
canal treaty is so great that the propo-
sition may never go through with the
sanction of the Colombian congress.
President Roosevelt Is scheduled to
make more presidential trips within
the next few weeks. He has accepted
the invitation of Senator Hanna to at
tend the wedding of his daughter and
Mr.. Mccormick of Chicago, and will
go to Cleveland next Tuesday. Direct
ly after getting back from Cleveland
he is to go to Baltimore to take part
in the festival of the Saengerfest.
l IL
tend the commencement exercises of
the University of Virginia at Char
lottesville. The two last trips are to
he short ones, but will prevente the
president attending to business In his
office for several days. 1t Is probable
that the president will have meeting
of his cabinet next Monday. He has
seen a few of his cabinet advisers
since leaving Washington, but the ma
with business and will want TO pre-
sent some matters for his advice and
decision at as early a date as Is con
yenient.
Mrs. Roosevelt Is already making
preparations for the summer sojourn
AT Oyster Bay and will doubtless go
there with the family before July /.
If the president Is detained here. The
children will all be out OF school a
week hence. and will want to get away
from Washington as much as their
parents. Oyster Bay is delightful
place to them. With the president
they hunt and fish and swim and sail
and enjoy their summer vacations to
the utmost
