Washington, D. c., July 12.- Martin L. Mulhall, the special agent of the Manufacturers As sociation, appeared before the Senate lobby committee today and testified that while posing as the hiend of Senaor McComas, pf Maryland, he had secretly work ed against the 8-hour bill intro ducrd by the senator.
 The manufacturers, he said, had fought the bill and he had, through McComas, learned all there was to know, regarding the friends of the measure and was thus able to defeat it by bringing pressure on those who would have aided the Maryland states man in passing the bill.
 "I was offered $5,OO0 life job in the Navy Department,' ' said the lobbyist, ''and was at one time offered a bribe of S5,0O0 to sell my people but refused"
 1 The Senate committee is wad- ing through a mountain of Null hall letters, taken by the special officers of the Senate, who made a raid on his aparments and of flee and took everything in sight.
 It is believed that when the letters are made public, the rep utation of many men high in both parties, will be badly damaged and that many will be driven from public life.
