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. But the trouble- with Uncle Jud
la that 'the Bryan wing of the party ha
it suspicions; of fclm. ' ft doesn't like the
fact that he wa so long receiver for the
Cincinnati, : Hamilton Dayton railroad
and It remembers .he was' lit the Cleveland
cabinet It ha a deep, dark notion that
he 1 allied with the so-called reactionaries
ot the democratlo party and Is lukewarm
toward his nomination to say the least.
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.

POSlilON OF GENERAL WOOD
Lays Down a Rule with Reference to
Fighting Western Fires.
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."

"WEIGHT OF THE. SOUL"
Experiment Made with Dying; Hen
Arouses Snarn Medical
. .' , . 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.
