HARRISBURG, Pa. Oct. 2O- Pennsylvania democrats hope they have found weak link at last in the chain of defeats that for 46 years has marred their path to the United States Senate.
 Approximately 100000 ballots have been impounded to deter. mine whether or not fraud was perpetrated in the 1926 election in which Senate-elect William s. Ware, republican, led William B. Wilson, democrat, by some 173,. 900 votes.
 This was the closest democrat had come in many years to win ming a United States senatorship in the Keystone state, and Wilson refused to admit defeat. Instead, he charged that fraud had been committed in Philadelphia. De- nial of the. charges was made by supporters of Ware.
 The United States senate is to be final arbiter of the dispute. Should Wilson at last be seated, he would be the first democratic senator from Pennsylvania since William A. Wallace, who served from 1875 to 1881.
 At the general election last year Wilson, combining the support o. the democratic and labor parties, carried 55 of the 67 counties, in the state and went into Philadel- |phia with lead of approximately 50.00O votes, but a tremendous vote for Ware in his home city turned the tides
 After the election Wilson made allegations of fraud before the special committee named by the senate to investigate the 1926
