SNEERS AT STORY
TOLD BY MULHALL
Author's Letter Refers to
Exposure as "Bunk."
REVELATIONS CONTINUED
Mulliall on Stand Says That Number
Codo Was Used to Hide Names of
Prominent Office Holders Identifies
More Letters. , ,
Washington, July la While Colonel
Mulhall, former lobbyist for tho Na
tlonal Association of Manufacturers,
continued his identification of letters
nnd telegrams, most of which have
already been made nubile. Senator
Reed interrupted to introduce a letter
to Mulhall from S. Langtry Crockett,
author of "The Flunderors," written
from Thomaston, Mo., a few weeks
ago.
In it Mr. Crockett said be believed
all Mulhall had said In his published
story, with the exception of his de
claration that he was making it public
for the benefit of humanity.
"This bunk, 'for the good of human
ity,'" wrote Crockett, "is being over
played." Mr.. Crockett wrote that ho hoped
Mulhall "was making a good thing"
out of his story and wrote that ho was
willing to take tho stand and toll what
he knew about MuUiall's credibility.
The reading of the letter ndded a touch
of comedy to the proceedings.
Mulhall declared that under Secre
tary dialling's administration tho as
sociation's methods were so secretive
that names were never mentioned.
"As nn instance," lie said. "Vice
President Sherman was No. 8, Repre
sentative Littleflelil 0, and I myself
was known as No. 11."
MuUiall's operations in breaking the
machinists' strike in Cleveland nnd the
Bltoo workers' strike In St Louis were
described In detail in a score of let
ters. To Defeat Johnson.
One letter, written to W. D. Sayles
of Cleveland, interested the commit
tee. In it Mulhall said that he be
lieved Sayles "should call on President
Vnn Cleave to have the members of
the N. A. M., In Cleveland unite in
defeating the Hon. T. L. Johnson, your
present mayor." Mulhall said ho would
like to go to Cleveland to old in this
work. This letter was dated July 10,
1007.
Mulhall declared that be went to
Cleveland under direct instructions to
defeat Johnson.
In a letter written by Secretary
Sch-wedtman, to Mnlhijll on ,Aug. 0,
1007, the N. A. M. secretary said:
"There arc some largo things brew
ing, and there is every indication that
in our tariff campaign wo have with us
the majority of the Republican leading
congressmen and senators and men
higher up than that too. To a small
degree this is a fact also on the labor
issue and some of the other proposi
tions advocated by the N. A. M."
A letter dated in 1007 showing that
W. T. Haines, now governor of Maine,
Joined tho N. A. M. and paid $50 dnes
in advance was road, and Mulhall was
asked why Ilalnes, a lawyer, joined
tho organization.
"Why, ho is a big wood pulp manu
facturer also," said Mulhall.
"But why did he join the N. A. M.?
Was it for political reasons?" asked
Senator Reed.
"Why, yes, sir," said Mulhall. "He
knew I could do a great deal for him
in a political way."
Horse and Wagon Bribe.
Mulhall said that a worker named
Hantaan, who helped elect Congress
man Littlefleld in 1000, had a horse
and wagon given to him to start in tho
express business at Thomaston, Me.,
by the N. A. M. A letter referring to
this as "a legacy" was Identified by
Mulhall.
Another letter from Sehwedtmrtn to
Mulhall, after complimenting him on
his good work, said:
"If wo could only get a worker like
you In every state it would be up to
tho N. A. M. to name tho next presi
dent" Expense accounts showing money
paid by Mulhall to striking shoo work
ers in tho fall of 1007 in St. Louis were
introduced. Tho total accounted for
was S333.25. and Mullmll snM Hint-
I' "most of it went to workers for bo-
traylng tho strikers." Other nccounts
bringing tho total up to about $1,000
wero also Identified by Mulhall.
"When I went out there," sold the
' witness, "I was told to approach tho
heads of tho union nnd see what 1
could do."

rented Its immediate consideration.

"the great commoner who now oc
cupies that office hns stated that the
salary of $1,000 a mouth is not suf

platform to earn a living."

loss it suffers in being deprived of
the services" of tho secretary of state
during the time ho may be on the
