The Philadelphia Record of to-day
says: preliminary moves towards
formal negotiations for fusion between
| the Democrats and WASH
ington party on state
Fusion ticket are expected to fol-
Dicker low conferences of Bull
on Now Moose leaders in this city
on Monday. Clifford Pin
chot. william Draper
Lewis and State Chairman Morris
4 have arranged to be in the city on
that day, and it was reported, yester-
day, in Bull Moose circles that Bill
Finn would also be present. While
Iactive Democrats and friends of Dean
Lewis have objected to the deal, the
leaders of the two parties express
their desire to put through a combi-
nation ticket. Dean Lewis is stated
to be willing to sacrifice his ambitions
ana reJlfe as q CdnuludlS lOI ION-
ernor. William T. Greasy is also said
to be willing to drop out as the DEM
ocratic candidate for Lieutenant
Governor, but leaders of both parties
admit doubt as to the willingness of
William N. McNair, Democratic nomi-
nee for Secretary of Internal Affairs,
to get out of the race. In the event
! of Dean Lewis retiring, 1t was stated
yesterday, there is but little probabil-
ity of his consenting to run for Lieu
tenant Governor. This place would
go to the Washington party under the
terms of the proposed deal, but 1t Is
I leXpected that the Democrats would
ask that Percy F. Smith, the present
Bull Moose nominee. also withdraw
from the ticket and that some promi-
nent Philadelphia reformer be named
in his stead"
William Finn, after returning from
a couple of weeks vacation in Canada
last night, stirred up things politically
lin Pittsburgh yester-
day by announcing
that fusion was Finn Would

ticians. Processing,
however, to believe that fusion will
not be necessary to accomplish the
defeat of Senator Penrose, Mr.. Finn
said: There has been great deal of
fusion talk, and something may come
of 1t all; can't tell at this time. But
III haven't heard of any propositions
Hooking to fusion on the United
States senatprship; nobody believes
IPenrose can be elected, and there will
be no occasion to fuse on a candidate
