citation.

BALTIMORE. Aug. s.-The Baltimore
Horse Show Association has submitted
all the data and correspondence relative
to the dispute over the eligibility OF the
prize mare Leading Lady in the Piper
Heidsieck $1,000 cup contest. to William
H. West. owner of Society Girl, winner
OF second prize. and 1t now rests with
Mr.. West to make formal protest or
drop the matter. He declares 1t will DC
several days before he decides. but 1t is
believed he will take no further action.
The Conditions Criticised.
The controversy has disclosed that the
conditions governing contests for the
cup are not too carefully drawn. The
association failed to define what consti-
tutes ownership of entries. The condi-
tions OF the cup class merely state that
the horse must be driven by its bona
fide owner to a gig. and that profess
SIGNALS are barred. The cup must be

property OF the exhibitor. Under these
conditions It is asserted that a man who
has won It once could select the best
animal in the class next year, buy IL for
the season. win again, and do the same
thing the following year
Ownership of the Leading Lady was
brought up by the fact that she was
exhibited here under the ownership Of
John l. Conway. OF Philadelphia A
week later she was exhibited at the
Philadelphia show. where she was en-
tered under the ownership of Senator
George A. Ware. When this became
known Mr.. West requested the BaIti-
more Association to investigate.
Letters of Explanation.
Letters were sent to Mr. Conway and
to Senator Ware. Each was requested to
state the length of time he had owned
the horse. In reply Mr. Conway stated
that he purchased Leading Lady on April
%. 1903, from T. F. Durham, OF PhiIadeI-
phia. Mr.. Durham corroborated this
Senator Wares explanation, which Is
backed up by all parties in the trans
action, is that shortly after Mr.. Con-
