 Mahon of Norwalk who is associated with the Hurley forces although making no open avowal of support of the latter's candidacy seems tc retain considerable delegation strength at this writing. However, the Maloney-Smith factions sup- porting the candidacy of Mrs. Chase Going Woodhouse are expected to engage in considerable manipula. ton to curtail McMahon and pre-. sent their candidate in the fore. front.
 The possibility, as reported hert earlier this week of a retalignmenl of the convention call will undoubt- edly result in bitter fighting. II has been reported that Gaffney sup. porterS may attempt a move where. by the senatorial nomination, which at preSe this slated to be first, will be showed down along the line with the gubernatorial nomination placed first on the list. Final results oi this latter balloting would then bt an indication of the trend of the delegation vote.
 Meanwhile the name of former iieut.-Gov. Odell Shephard has been proposed by former Mayor Thomas J. Spellacy as ''compromise" sen. atorial candidate. Spellacy, who or. iginally had placed himself in thG field withdrew this past week.
 The group which is backing Calf. ney coinpfirises United States Sena. tor Francis T. Maloney, formel Mayor Thomas J. Spellacy ol Hartford, State Senator John L. Sullivan of New Britain, AttorneJ Charles E. Mahoney of Windsor. Patroick Sullivan of Lebanon, State Senator Cornelius Mulyihill oi Bridgeport and others.
 Backing Hurley and McMahor are MT. Cummings, John Golden of New Haven, Miss Katherine Quinn of West Hartford, Statute Revision Commissioner John M. Bailey of Hartford. State Motor We. hicles Commissioner John T. Mo- Carthy, Deputy Boxing Commis. sioner Maurice J. Landers of East Hartford and others.
 AS stated, personal political pres tige will be the highest stake to be contested for tonight and tomorrow U. s. Senator Francis T. Maloney and J. Francis Smith leaders of the powerful Maloney-Smith faction vii! fight vigorously not only to retain their present strong powers but to further expand those powers. Suc- cess on the part of this group is gaining a victory for Atty. Gaffney and Mrs. Woodhouse would mean virtual control of the state party by them.
 Meanwhile. the stake of Hr. Hur- ley is one of the highest. Should he go down in sharp defeat this weekend it is likely that his career in the state party is at end. In this same camp the efforts of Atty. Me- Mahon are being fostered by his de- sire to entrench himself within the party else, he too, is apt to slip into oblivion from which it would be difficult to emerge. It is generally considered that Atty. Spellacy may necessarily find his political swar song being played.
 Tn any event the party will suf- fer severe reYcrberations before the weekend is out which may or may not, as is hoped by the Republicans affect election results this fall.
