OF $4,000
VOTED FOR RACING
Two $1,000 Stceplcchases to
BE Held Under Auspices
Of Hunt Association.
LIMIT on ~3-YEAR-OLDS

A $4,000 subscription fund and two
$1,000 steeplechase stakes were pro-
jected Yesterday at the nnual meeting
of the United Hunts Racing Associa-
ton. The National Steeplechase n
same time and at the same place. is
East Forty-hrst street. Among other
things II approved the resolution of
Joseph T.. Davis 20 prohibit the racing
of the thre~e-year-olds through the field
before August.
The interest over the proposed new
steeplechase stakes was so keen that a
large part of the S25. 900 fun was sub
scribed by members that attended the
meeting. and II was expected that the
balance would be subscribed long before
the next meeting. One of the new stakes
will be run at the spring. and another at
the fall meeting OF the United Hunts at
Belmont Park Terminal. What they will
lie named and their conditions VIII be
taken up at a meeting IN The near
future.
Another stake at one nile FOR two
year-olds. to be run at the fall meetings.
was tentatively arranged. and Frank
Bryan. the racing secretary. said that II
would be a rich one. worth something
in the neighborlood OF $4,000.
The Terminal track itself. or rather
the grand stand. came up for its share
Of attention. 1t Is proposed to bu!ld
several tiers OF boxes sloping down 10
the lawn from the stand TO take the
place OF the old boxes far out on the
end beyond the winning post.
The association will have two two day
meetings at the Terminal. as last year.
All the old officers were reelected FOR
the coming season. and the only change
in the board Of directors was that j.
Temple Gwathmey took the place OF
Clifford \. Cochran. The racing conf
nittee ma med for the ensuing year was
II. l.. Bell. G. l.. Appleton. James Park.
-. j. Devereux, Frank bryan and g. h.
Harrison.
The Amendment to the rule governing
the early racing Of three-year-old jump
ers. approved AT the meeting of the Ma
tional Stceple~hase and Hunts Associs-
ton, now reads:
NO horse shall min in a ste~plechase
