After initial defeat, the bill passed for 1000 Italian copies at a cost of 300 dollars, with Finance Committee backing an 800 dollars Italian print for the speech.

President nominates Hughes to Supreme Court seat
The President picked Gov Charles F Hughes of New York for the Supreme Court vacancy created by the passing of David Brewer. The move is praised nationwide as upholding the court’s high standards, with supporters calling it a ten strike in political and judicial terms. Some speculate it could influence Republican power in New York and bolster Roosevelt and Root, but no solid evidence backs those claims.
