Nancy Lees youngsters In Demand.
A surprisingly strong market for trotting
stock was developed yesterday at tho FnsiR
sale In Madison Square Garden, some OF the
young things consigned by A. II. Moore selling
for prices which reminded horsemen OF old
times. Mr.. Moore owns one OF tho smartest
collections of ~trotters 10 tho United States,
having at his farm near Philadelphia the noted
sire Director, p:17, with a herd OF brood mares,
which includes the dams OF Nancy Hanks, 500;
Phoebe Wilkes, Q :0sA; Jack, 2:11h; Red Bud,
2;l2h: Joe Patchen, 1903; Evangeilne, 2:l1M;
Vinette, 2:09h; Pieley, 2:0BA: Direct, 2:o6M,
and many other turf celebrities. Ho has been
breeding from these sires and dams for several
years. but until yesterday he had never put his
young stock on the market. Horsemen from
all parts of the country and from Europe wore
present to bid on the Moore consignment, and
some notable prices were paid for the best colts
and Niles in the collection.
The star OF tho lot was an unnamed black
colt. two years old, by Observation-Disclosures, by
William L., Rrandam Princess Eloise. by
Mambrino King. He 10 gated like Directum,
and when led by tho side OF a saddle horse no
made an impressive showing on the miniature
track. 1t is said that the youngster trotted 4
quarter in 0:32A last summer. John Il. Turner.
