Labor turmoil as Mulhall linked to anti labor letters
The Central Labor Union traced letters urging workers to vote Republican to Mulhall, who allegedly worked from the National Manufacturing association office. Republicans quickly repudiated him, boosting labor opposition to the ticket, while detectives probed Elijah Kesler in a separate fraud case. McDermott, Kesler’s alleged ally, is also under investigation as cases continue in police court.
