SCOREHORSEOWNERS
Humane officers Appear Be-
fore Commissioners.
WANT CRUELTY LAW UPHELD
Former President Snow and Presi-
dent Walter $. Hutchins Make Ad-
dresses ON Subject OF Police Pro-
lection and Cooperation OF HUI
name Society In Caring for Horses.

At a public hearing before the Commits
sioners yesterday morning. c. A. Snow,
former president of the society, spoke for
the Washington Humane Society. and
made a warm reply TO the Horse Owners
Mutual Protective Association.
Some time ago the Commissioners held
a hearing. and the Horse Owners Associ-
alton contended that the Humane Society
exercised altogether too much diligence
in making arrests, and that the salaries
Of tho officers employed for this purpose
depended upon the number of arrests
they made.
Statistics were shown tending 10 prove
the assertion made, that the arrests in
creased each year until the Horse Owners
Association was formed, and then very
materially decreased.
Mr. Snow said the Humane Society has
ct all times co-operated with police. and
about eight years ago. the then president
Of the society secured the permission OF
Commissioner Ross TO offer as prizes
gold watches to the two policemen in
each precinct securing the largest num-
Der OF arrests.
Mrs. ToVVnsend's Prizes.
"OnIy a few months ago." said the
speaker, Miss Mathnde Townsend
wished TO become a member Of the HUI
name Society. and to offer prizes to Sc
cure greater activity of the police, and
only recently the president of the society
and myself called on Commissioner West
with the same object In view. He issued
a special order through Mai Sylvester
directing the captains OF the precincts to
have their men arrest and prosecute
those guilty OF cruelty TO animals"
With reference to the offering Of prizes,
Mr.. Snow said he had never heard oppo-
sition to this except from these extremely
virtuOus horse owners, all Of whom, in
GLIDING the president, secretary. and
treasurer, have records of conviction in
the Police Court. He said that II the
ex-residents Of Sing Sing and Moundsville
should present a bill for the suppression
or prevention Of murder, burglary, and
forgery, and the bill should have a clause
fOrbidding detective work. he did not
think it would be seriously considered,
and that he did not think the Horse
Owners Association was wanting in eff
frontery.
President Hutchins Speaks,
Walter Stllson Hutchins. president Of
the society, told the Commissioners that
the society wants to retain the police
power of its agents. He mentioned
number Of large cities where the humane
societies are paid all or part of the fines
for violations Of the cruelties laws, and
said there is no precedent for the Com
missioners taking away this source of in
come from the society. Both he and Mr..
Snow said the main object is the sup
preston Of cruelty 10 animals. and they
would as soon see jail sentences imposed
instead OF fines.
Commissioner tombstone asked for spe-
cific instances where policemen had failed
10 make arrests for violations OF the laws
for the protection Of animals Mr. Snow
replied that he is sure the police are lax
in this respect, but could give no specific
instance.

Howe TOtten Says There
Will Be No Dog Show.

by a Morning News
paper OF a Meeting TO ReorSanize
Local Association OF Dog FHncieFs
Brings Forth Emphatic Denial.
Statement Causes Chagrin.

There will be no dog show in Wash
ington for a year at least, and any state
ment connecting my name with such an
enterprise, in the immediate future, Is
fake, pure and simple. Furthermore,
! have written the paper which made the
announcement of a meeting in my Office
at 3 o'clock this afternoon. telling the
editors they had either been imposed
upon by their reporter or they were i'm
posing upon me and a credulous public.
This statement was made yesterday
afternoon by Howe Totten. of the local
Kennel Club. and one OF the foremost
dog fanclers in the country, to group
of reporters who had gathered at his
Office in anticipation of an imposing and
enthusiastic meeting.
Causes Much Chagrin.
Mr.. Totten was deeply chagrined at the
annoyance TO which he and many friends
had been subjected. The Washington
club, he said, was in no need Of reorgani-
zation, but was in a most fiourishing con-
,lition. and the members would look upon
him as being overpresumptious IN rele-
eating 10 himself the authority to speak
without consulting them
"I was called up at my house Sunday
night" he continued. told the reporter
that could not discuss the matter over
the phone, and concluded that II he
wished to see me about IL. I would be in
my Office tomorrow (Monday). While
l would gladly devote my time and
money to any cause in the interest Of
improved breeding. my office is required
for my personal business, and I could not
tender it for a purpose such as this"
Mr.. Totten concluded that the American
Kennel Association had assigned dates
for the entire year and. aside from the
difficulty of obtaining a proper hall for
the show, it would be impossible to ar
range a date for this city before next
January.
