That's Edward "Colonel" House, Wilson's close adviser. He's pretty fascinating.
Richard Norton said:
Edward Mandell House (July 26, 1858 – March 28, 1938) was an American diplomat, politician, and presidential advisor. Commonly known by the title of Colonel House, although he had no military experience, he had enormous personal influence with U.S. President Woodrow Wilson as his foreign policy advisor until Wilson removed him in 1919.

Thanks bior and Richard Arthur Norton, we'll add their full names to the record. Col. House was very interesting guy. Maybe with the 100th anniversary of WWI coming up more people will learn about him.

Those are just edit marks: x-es meaning "leave this (background) out" of the printed photo -- use the figure only.

I notice Wilson's black armband. I suppose he was still officially in mourning of his wife Ellen, who died in August the previous year.
Art Siegel said:
The second negative date of March, 1926, might refer to its use at the time of publication of the first volume of Col. House's "Intimate Papers". www.unz.org/Pub/Outlook-1926mar10-00376
