the fight then raging on Speaker Can.
non was dirty deal by the White
House against the speaker"
Watson states" wrote Mulhall,
that the president (Roosevelt) is
moving heaven and earth to nominate
Taft and that he is willing to sacri-
fee the Sherman law and every law
to please the trusts and please Wall
street, so that he can get their sup
port for his candidate"
Mulhall also wrote of attending a
meeting at Mr.. Forakers house, com
posed Of senators who will oppose
the president and his policies at the
Chicago convention" He added that
he was told to work against Mary
land delegates being instructed for
Taft.
Would Block Legislation.
The opposition to the president"
Mulhall continued, intends to let no
legislation through that he wishes at
this session of congress and intends
to fight the Taft forces to finish.
There Is whole lot took place at this
meeting that canuot very we'll be put
on paper"
On May 6. the same year, MulhaIl
wrote Schwedtman that he had called
on Senators Carter and Hemenway,
Senator Aldrich's secretary and 9th.
ers, and was assured by all these gen.
tlemen that It mattered not what the
president attempted to do. there was
not going to be any unfair legislation
passed through the senate this ses.
sion"
The letter detailed q conversation
with Senator Beveridge. In which the
Indiana senator declared himself for
an injunction bill. amendment of the
Sherman law, and child labor bill.
"Hemenway told me to tell Beve-
ridge he was talking through his hat.
and that his hat was a damn poor
one.' He added that Beveridge was
bluffng and assured me that no such
legislation could pass the senate"
