His destination was the Auditorium Hotel, Chicago, IL.

On the passenger manifest he said he was a journalist. I wonder if he was covering this event:
https://www.chicagocatholic.com/chicagoland/-/article/2017/09/06/1926-eucharistic-congress-brings-sense-of-wonder-

There were 11 people on that page of the manifest going to the Auditorium Hotel, including a Roman Catholic priest, a clerk in holy orders, and a teacher whose passage had been paid by the Catholic Touring Association.

----
edited to add:
The passengers on the next page of the manifest are almost all going to the same hotel also, and there are some who say they are going to the Eucharistic Congress. (Images 314 and 315 at the link at familysearch.)

Another source for you - probably repetitive of information you may already have from other sources but I didn't see references on your ancestry tree.
