RULES. AND REQUIRE 18 Prominent Gentlemen Selected to Judge the Classes. CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS See ae Peed Society here and elsewhere is looking forward to the Washington horse show, to be held in Convention Hall May 4, 5, 6 and 7, with gréat expectation. The de- mand for the boxes, which will hold six occupants and in which the fashionables will accomplish their dual object of seeing and being seen, is increasing, and among the most recent purchasers were Mr. Oli- ver H. P. Belrort and other prominent New Yorkers. Mr. Belmont visited horse- show headquarters et 734 14th street in person Saturday and announced his inten- tion of bringing on his fine string of horses, including his four-in-hand and tandem. The prize lists and entry blanks have been sent out to breeders, owners and exhibitors all over the country, and letters received daily by Manager Field show that there are many horses being prepared for the event. The entry rules provide that there must be two entries by different owners im each class or no money prize will be given and three or no second or third prizes will be giv: Entry fees are $3. Rules That Will Govern. Any person. exhibiting any animal he knows to be suffering from a contagious or infectious disease must agree to forfeit $100, and the veterinarians who will see to the health{ulness of the horses are Dr. W. R. Pointon, Dr. J. P. Turner, U. 8. A., and Dr. D. E. Buckingham, who will be in at- tendance each day of the show. Horses will be measured in the shoes in which they. come to the exhibition by the veteri- narians. In the hunter and jumping classes the minimum weight to be carried will be one hundred and torty pounds: If a horse refuses a jump it will be allowed two more trials at It. Should it still refuse it will be disqualified. Each jump must be taken twice, There will be two jumps, one of three feet of solid timber, brushed up about one foot six inches, and the other of split rails four feet high. Each judge will be Provided with, a book specifying the classes in which he adjudicates, with the number of each horse, without the name of the exhibitor. When the judges consider it necessary they may ride or drive any of the contest- ing horses to determine their respective merits. The ring in Convention Hali, in which the horse show will be held, will be 208 feet long and eighty-three feet wide, being the largest covered horse show arena in the United States. There wit! be a promenade eight feet wide around this ring, and the arena boxes will be butit fronting this promenade, ample space being also allotted for reserved seats. ‘There has been some question raised as fo the meaning of the words “horse” and horses” in the prize list. When not other- wise specifically stated in the conditions,the entries may be either mares, -herses, colts or fillies; the pairs in the carriage horses class, for instance, being permitted to be a mare and a gelding.

Manager Field returned Wednesday night from a trip through Virginia. “I found everybody interested in horses talking horse show,’ said Mr. Field toa Star reporter today. “There will be an excellent repre- sentation in the various classes from the old dominion, and especially in the jump- ing and saddle horse classes. I am very much encouraged over the prospects.” Judges of Great Reputation. The board of officers held a meeting at headquarters late yesterday afternoon. Matters of great importance were discuss- ed. The momentous question of who the judges for the show willbe was reported as settled. This important duty, as it will be seen from a perusal of the names, will be performed by gentlemen of internation- al reputation for their ability and con- scientious adjudication in former affairs of a similar character. In the harness classes Mr. Prescott and Mr. Reginald W. Rives of New York will judge the entries, in conjunction with Colonel Edward Mor- rell of Philadelphia. Messrs. Lawrence and Rives are famillarly known in the swell New York set as “the Knickerbock- er twins,” and both are remembered as the leaders in coaching in this country and whips par excellence. ae horses will be judged by Mr. W. ‘red by Mr. P. F. Collier of New York and Mr. H. L. Herbert of New York. Mr. Collier, it will be remembered, brought his pack of hounds and horses to the Chevy Chase Club year before last, and proved himself 2 gneat man over a hard country. Mr. Herbert is the chairman of tre Polo Association of America, and also a great rider. Mr. Frank Ware will also judge the thoroughbred hunters and thoroughbreds. ‘The trotter and roadster classes will be York, editor and proprietor of the Turf, Field and Farm, and the veteran authority en horses in these classes. The judges in the hackney classes will be announced later. Reduced Railroad Rates.
