THE LOBBY SENSATION.

The Mulhall Exposures in con
nection with the senate lobby in
vestigation detail some startling
things and have created a great COM
motion in Washington, but as many of
his charges are against men of high
standing and prominence who hotly
deny them, it may be we'll to suspend
judgment until more is known about
the matter. Mulhall was himself a
prominent lobbyist employed by the
national association of manufactures
and was discharged because he was too
bad to keep, since what time he
made many efforts to be reinstated,
threatening great things if this was
not done, Failing in this he secured
and sold private correspondence of the
association for $40, 600, half of which
was to be paid to 60 between in the
transaction, and the GO between is
now suing him for his share.
