FRUSTRATE DADE PARK PLOT HENDERSON, Ky.f Sept. 2. A well-meant plan to rob the money room at the Dade Park track of the Dade Park Jockey Club was frustrated yesterday afternoon when a cordon of Evansville police and officers from Henderson, Ky., were thrown around the grounds. Through a leak in the intended plans Bain Morrison, superintendent of the police at Dade Park received word a number of St. Louis men were en route here and had planned to rob the money; room at the track. Calls were made for additional police from Evansville to reinforce the already large number stationed at the track. Only one exit was allowed the automobiles to leave the grounds and motorcycle polica patrolled the highways leading to and from the track. It was stated this morning that the men had left the city of Evansville, but the Dade Park management is taking every pra-. caution to prevent a jobbery.
