If by handling you mean you want to avoid it, then set the soTimeout on the HttpConnectionManager and use that to configure a message-sender for the gateway.

  <bean id="httpConnectionManager"
        class="org.apache.commons.httpclient.MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager">
    <property name="params">
      <bean class="org.apache.commons.httpclient.params.HttpConnectionManagerParams"
            p:soTimeout="5000" <!-- 5 seconds -->
            p:maxTotalConnections="100"
            p:defaultMaxConnectionsPerHost="100">
      </bean>
    </property>
  </bean>

  <bean id="httpSender"
        class="org.springframework.ws.transport.http.CommonsHttpMessageSender">
    <constructor-arg name="httpClient">
      <bean class="org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient"
            p:httpConnectionManager-ref="httpConnectionManager"/>
    </constructor-arg>
  </bean>

    <int-ws:outbound-gateway 
                             message-sender="httpSender"
                            and the usual stuff />
