GAYNOR NOT OUT OF
 GUBERNATORIAL RAGE
Declares He'll Consider Matter
 In Near Future.

HI Ned[ fuIu[G.
 A letter received by Frank Click, sec ietary of the Saratoga county Demo- cratic convention, from Mayor William J. Gaynor Of New York appears to dis pose absolutely of the recurrent ru mors that Mr. Gaynor would not con- sider under any circumstances an of fer of the nomination for governor this fall.
 The letter came in reply to con- munication from Secretary Click inclos- ing copies of resolutions adopted by the Democratic county convention in- structing its delegates to the state convention to vote for the nomination of Mayor Gaynor for governor. Mir Click made it public. In it Mayor Gaynor wrote:
 T thank you exceedingly for your letter and the resolution which you fnclose. I shall have to carefully con- sider the matter in the near future
 T am now quite restored to my usual strength, but have not yet fully recovered my voice." '
 The news contained in Mayor Gay nors letter caused considerable satis- faction among the Democrats of Sara toga. There is in that countyla a strong sentiment for the New York chief ex- ecutiye, and the resolutions favoring his nomination for governor were adopted by the county convention with a whoop.

Poultry fanciers in the vicinity of Washington are said to hold an af- frmative view, and the death of many chickens and ducks that has occurred recently is ascribed to the disease.
