Padding the Street Payroll to Help Sullivan
A city payroll pay out amid fear of padding figures used to secure Mayor Sullivan’s renomination. Reports show street repair wages rising in June 1893 with 2,407, 2,065, and 2,083 dollars weekly, while earlier 1892 weeks were much smaller. Officials deny full records, citing Jerry Kelly, as debates over city debt and cost continue amid political maneuvering.
