WOOLF SILKS IN DOUBLE Lady Broadcast and Lucille K. Triumph at Hialeah Park. Jockey Allen and Trainer Stewart Share Honors Juvenile Filly Equals Track Record. MIAMI, Fla., Jan. 28 Lady "Broadcast, the sterling old daughter of Messenger and Conscience, which races for Herbert M. Woolf, was winner of the best offering of the Miami Jockey Club this afternoon. It was the Pan American Purse, a condition affair, and, while the margin of victory was made close by C. E. Allen, the mare won with plenty to spare. Al G. Westons Dancing Mack raced to second place, with third the portion of Fredrick A. Griffiths Alder shot. When Lady Broadcast crossed the finish she completed a double for the Woolf silks for C. E. Allen, who rode, and Dan Stewart! the trainer. Lucille K. had previously won the juvenile quarter-mile, dash and equalled the track record of :22. Delightful weather brought out a large crowd, and it was racing that abounded in thrills, most of the finishes being close after furious stretch battles. There was a considerable delay at the start of the Pan American Purse, and as the horses came out of the chute, it was seen that Lady Broadcast was a bad last of the six that started Mills got Dancing Mack away on his toes! and he was attended by Chatford and John F. Martis was racing fourth and Aldershot was showing the way to the mare. MILLS SAVES GROUND. Mills held his lead with Dancing Mack, and he was saving ground as the son of Mackenzie II. went along under steady restraint. The other two were closely lapped on him, and Martis, not far away, was four lengths before Lady Broadcast, which soon overtook Aldershot. Allen was content with the progress of the Woolf mare and elected to move up inside as the turn of the back stretch was reached. It looked a perilous route, but the leaders were far enough out for a passage and the mare steadily came into contention The opening race was a six furlongs dash for three-year-old maiden fillies, and it resulted in a bitterly fought finish in which W. H. LaBoyleaux Diana D. just lasted to win in the final stride from W. R. Collins Kitty Bruce, which was under silks for the first time. Mrs. P. A. B. Wideners Sideshow saved third from Galloping Duchess. It was a good start, and Westys Rose was first to show her nose in front, but Move Along was right with her, and then came Sideshow. Diana D. was less alert, and in the early stages she was outrun. Kitty Bruce soon passed them to take the lead, and as she went to the front Move Along, which was next to the inner rail, was caught in close quarters and crowded back. DIANA D. TAKES LEAD. Kitty Bruce was holding the others safe as she made the turn into the stretch, but Diana D. had been steadily making up ground on the outside, and in the final furlong she was close after the Collins filly. It was a fight all the way home, and the pair drew away from the others in the final strides, where it was the gray nose of Diana D. that was showing in front. Sideshow had raced well all the way and was third, three lengths back, and a length before Galloping Duchess. Move Along had no chance to come from her rail position, and in the stretch she was blocked again to have Foreign Play also lead her past the line. Herbert M. Woolfs Lucille K. equalled the quarter-mile track record when she was winner over a big band of plater juveniles in :22. Mose Lowensteins JJieany raced to second place and third way the portion of H. C. Ragans Dusky Dame, when she saved that part of the award from Willis Sharpe Kilmers Dark War. There was a tedious delay at the post, for which Dark War was largely to blame, and Dusky Dame was also unruly, both of them being sent away from positions outside the stalls. Black Flash also gave some trouble and altogether there came a long delay, but the start was a good one and Lucille K, which had an outside position, was first to show out of the bunch, with Meany chasing after her and the others in fairly close order. Lucille K. crossed over to the inside, Continued on thirteenth vaaej.

Meany had saved the place by a length from Dusky Dame, having raced in second place throughout. Dark War finished strongly after her bad behavior at the post, which took something out of her and, when her manners improve, she should not long remain a maiden.
