Aur. U-Speclal Tela am.) The Washington view of the (hoot- l.lg Of Mayor Gaynor is that If h survives. Hfc I likely to be the democratic nominee fr the presidency In U'12. - It may well happen that when Jamee J. Gallagher fired en assassin's ahot at Mayor l&iynor he was doing the very thine that us calculated to make certain the rlae of the mayor politically. At any rate, that la fce of the possibilities of the situation. (The information ix-ie la tliat there Is not much questlqn of tho nomination of the mayor for governor of New York If It Is eea that his wound la not going to Impair hi vigor. It Is known that some of the shrewdest republicans In New York have been calculating all along on Uaynor as the democratlo nominee. This was ' before Mayor Oaynor was wounded. That, tne circumstances of the aasault upon him and the fortitude with which he has borne up have helped to in crease his popularity in New York and na tionally. Is cleer. ,' , Already leading Minnesota, democrats have spoken out In favor of Gaynor as the available man for the democratlo presl lentlal nomination. Other are extremely likely to do ao. As the altuation stands among the demo crat, the great- body of them are looking for a Moses to lead them. If Mayor Gay nor should happen to be the next governor of New York and should make a success pf It, he would be almost Invincible at the next democratlo national convention. It is true that Governor Judson Harmon la much in the limelight as the possible, many think probable, nominee for presi dent, lie would be a strong factor if he carries Ohio this fall, and dosen't Up up on some of the numerous political banana peelings that hi friends are throwing in hi path.

Win lam J. Bryan I well known to be hostile to the nomination of Harmon. On the other hand, the Bryan force woiTd Support Gaynor and so would a good many of the conservative element of the party. Looking at the situation tn. almost any way one will, It appears, as most politic ian 'here sltte it up, that if -Oaynor get well he'll be. hard to catch politically.

OFFICIALS MUST GET TOGETHER Indian Bnreaa and Forestry Service Are Caattoned Not to Work for Separate In terest. WASHINGTON, Aufr. lA-CSpeclal Tele xrem.) Major General Leonard Wood, chief of staff of the army, yeaterday took the heads of Indian and forestry service to task for not getting together In their efforts to fight fort-Ht fires In the northwest He told them, after a conference, that they would get no more aid from the army until they had at least mapped out some plan of action; that he did not Intend to send 'troops to fight fire and have those troops cross each others paths and add unneces sary expense to their movement. Tho forestry service want troops to flffht the fires In the national forest reserves, while the Indian bureau heads want the troop to fight fire on the Indian reservations. General Wood said that one forest wai Just asmuch the government's reserve as the other and he would furnish troops for both, but not until th officials got to gether. The acting heads of the forestry and Indian services admitted to Genral Wood that the conditions in the Flathead, Coeur d'Alene and Olacler park reservations were acute and that quick action and relief was needed to save the forests. 'Several thousand men are now working on the fires," said General Wood. "The fires are extremely dangerous this year, owing to the protracted drouth. Troops have been ordered to the scene of the fires from both the Department of the Dakota and Columbia. Pack trains have been ordered to proceed Immediately from ie army post to the flrestrlcken territories With auppliea for the men. The Indian bureau haa Its agent on the Flathead reservation with a force of team ster and other employes and Indians fifth t- Ing the fires there, while the forestry service Is making every effort to check the flames to the national reserves. These departments must work together. There is no difference between the forests on the Indian reservation and those in the na tional reserves. I believe that since our conference there will be a better under standing and alt will pull together." Situation Dad in Montana. MISSOULA, Mont, Aug. 13.-Condltlons today in the forests of western Montana Show no appreciable Improvement The work of securing fighting crew I being vigorously pressed. Three companies of the Fourteenth in fantry stationed at Fort Missoula arrived home from American lake this morning and were immediately dispatched to the scene of fires in this district Two more companies of soldiers have been ordered here. In the forests about Missoula the situation is worse today. Fire is spreading along Belmont creek and fifty men have been asked for. The Lolo Hot Spring fire 1 also unchecked. WALLACE, Ida., Aug. IS.

Comment. , Ther i a popular notion that th weight of the living body la leas than that of th dead one." In a recent Issue of the Pioneer Mall of London a correspondent discusses this question In connection with the be havior of a crocodile which he shot dead while It waa backing asleep on a quick sand. When shot the crooodll began to sink and almost disappeared before it could be reached. The correspondent is clearly Inclined to accept the popular notion of an increase in weight at death, but for the fact that recent experiment undertaken by aqme. learned authotitlea in . America have proved that a dead body waa lighter than a living one. From thia they (the learned authorities) deduced that the soul had a definite weight In pounds avoirdu pois. It la poatibte that lomi of our reader are unfamiliar with th experiment to which th correspondent . of th Pioneer Mall refer. They were mad and re corded a few year ago by Dr. Duncan MacDougall of Haverhill, Ma. Patient were weighed in the act of dying. The scale used recorded any Increase or de crease beyond the fifth of an ounce not a particularly delicate instrument for esti mating the weight of that part of the liv ing body which Is usuaally regarded a Immaterial and Imponderable. In th first of a series of six experiment Dr. MacDougall placed a man dying from pulmonary tuberculosis on th scales. Th patient lost weight at the rat of one sixteenth of an ounce per minute until the moment of death, when th beam end dropped with an audible stroke, showing a uddea decreas of three-quarters of an oune In weight What wa th caua of the sudden decrease T Dr. MacDougall, after excluding th loss due to escape of breath and fluid content of th body by evaporation or other natural mean, con eluded that th marked and sodden de crease was due to escape of the ,"oul sub- stanc." In thl particular Instance the soul waa "evidently a very material one, watching three-quarter ot an ounce. - Th experimenter extended hi observe tlona to dogs, but the result gained were negative. At the moment of death the dog's body rtfuaed to show any alteration In weight W are of opinion that th cor respondent Of th Pioneer Mall In aeeking to explain th disappearance of the ahot crocodll in a quicksand need not take hi "learned aulhorttlea" too seriously. Dr. MacDougall' observation are to be plained by th peculiar blaa on th part of hi oaiea or on the part of th friend who assisted him. At least the seals used by other Investigator hav refused to re veal any sudden diminution la the weight of the body at death.
