turn in June.

Washington, March l2.-President
Roosevelt's contemplated Western trip
was subject of some discussion at the
White House today. Senators Long, of
Kansas, and Hopkins of Illinois. and
Fourth Assistant Postmaster-General
Bristow. also of Kansas, talked with the
President about his tour. The Kansas
p ople are urging the President to make
some stops in their state after the dedi-

April 80. Only one stop thus far has
been arranged. The President has ac-
cepted an invitation to attend a meeting
of the railway branch of the Y. VI. G
A. to be held at Topeka, May l. Few
other details of the itinerary have been
worked out. 1t has been decided with
practical definiteness that only one trip
will be made.
While no date for the beginning of
the trip can be fixed definitely until the
Senate shall have adjourned, it is ex-
pected now that it will not be far from
April l. After leaving Washington tn he
President will not return to Washington

that the first two or three weeks of the

Yellowstone Park. There the President
will seek rest and recreation, but it is
