At least that Is what the duo announced yesterday morning after five hours of the heart-to-heart variety of talk:'- So, until time or leakages disclose the diplo matic Intricacies of the problem or bring the two together again, for all exterior business purposes Ad" Wolgast is once more managerless. Mr. and Mrs. Wolgast and Jones left last night at 8:15 o'clock for California. Jones blames Wolgast and Wolgast blames Jones for the break in the rela tions of more than four years, which have resulted in the planting of Wol gast at the top of the financial lumi naries of the ring and greatly en hanced the Jones hoard. Neither ad vance particularly satisfactory reasons for the split, which might lead one to gather that some ulterior motive was involved, say the influencing of the bettlnc odds on the Murphy fight for Instance. l p to Jones, Say Ad. Wolgast says it's entirely up to Jones as to the future relations of the two. and emphatically denies that he has refusrd to give Jones his share of the Murphy guarantee. "I told Jones last night that I would cancel the Murphy" fight if he would show me where it was to my ad vantage." declared Wolgast. The pair express nothing but thr kindest feelings for each other. Wol gast says Jones Is the greatest man ager In the world and Jones says Ad can lick Murphy If he Is half sick, and Is a ten-to-four shot over the New Yorker. Half an hour before they an nounced the dissolution of partnership Jones and Wolgast, arm In arm, were seen Ktrolllnc; down Washington street chortling with glee over some topic of conversation. They do hate each other. Jones says that If he is lucky with his negotiations at Los Angeles he will retire from ring activity, which has engrossed him for 14 years. Jones Record Brilliant. J one assumed the management of Wolgast in the Winter of 1308, Just before the fight with Abe Attell at Los A n geles.

Jones, who has no contract, securing 20 per cent of all purse earnings and moving-picture moneys. Jones' first protege was Kddle Hnyder. a lightweight of Peoria, III. Since then he has handled a host of boxers. Including Packey McFarland. Billy Papke, Abe Attell. Cyclone Johnny Thompson, Freddie Welsh and Jim Barry. Of these Papke and Wolgast were champions brought to the front by Jones, but he brands Wolgast as the greatest fighter and money-maker of (hem all. Wolgast says that he has received n n $8500 offer for a fight with Joe Mandot at Los Angeles on March 17, and a $4500 proposition for a ten-round affair with Jack Brttton at New Orleans the last of March. : " Mm CAMPI BEATEN IN TIGERISH BATTLE "Kid Williams" Wins Decision Over Fast San Francisco Bantamweight.

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 12. (Special.) al hwing has signed a new catcher for the Seals for the 1913 season. Me !s Ed Spencer, formerly with, the Bos ton Americans, but more recently with I.Hulavllle. He Is known as "Tub" Spencer, and is said to be a hitter of rare ability. Spencer was looked upon as one of the best catchers in the Ameiicar league two years ago. lie Is said to have fallen heir to considerable nr-ney mm his habits were not of the best. That Is the only reason, so it is said, why Spencer is not enrolled with a big league club for the coming season. In a communication to Ewlng, Spen cer wrote that he had been on his good behavior for some time and assured the Seal Club owner that he would not be of sny trouble in that respect. Spencer was tirst recommended to Kwlng by Del Howard, who Is familiar with his ability behind the plate. The signing of Spencer means that t'laude Berry will not be wearing a Seal uniform this season. Ewlng has practically closed a deal whereby Berry will go to the Spokane Club of the northwestern League. Standrldge. the pitcher from the Cal gary Club, in the Western Canadian league, whose contract came to hand only yesterday, telegraphed Ewlng last night asking if he could purchase his release. He expected that he had a chance to go Into business and man age a club in Canada. As the Western Canadian League is a class C organisation. Ewlng sent a return telegram advising the player that to release him he would have to get waivers from all class AA. A and B leagues, so Standrldge will be on hand when the Seals go into their Spring camp. Sepulveda, the star catcher of the Northwestern League last season. Is still among the Seal holdouts. All he wants Is $100 more a month than hl contract calls for and Ewlng canmv see it In the same light. WSHOE TK1P IS PLANNED .second Run of Season Will Start for Mount Hood Next Week. The Portland Snowshoe Club, headed by President J. Wesley Ladd, will make its second midwinter trip to the Cas cade clubhouse on the east slop? of Mount Hood next week.

Mount Angel Issues Challenge. MT. ANGEL COLLEGE. Mt. Angel, nr., Feb. 1J. (Special.) The Mt, Angel College Junior basketball team, which averaged about 133 pounds and has never been defeated, issues a challenge to any team in the Northwest not averaging more than 145 pounds. Sat urday. February Is an open date. NEW YORK. Feb. 12. With adoption of the playing schedule 1913 the club owners and representa tives of the National League ended to day one of the shortest and most peace ful sessions in the league's history. Secretary Heydler said not a ripple of discord was heard during the discus sion of business yesterday and today. The schedule calls for 154 games, the season opening, with one exception, on April 10 and ending October 5. Owing to the good will of the Boston and New York club presidents the game origi nally scheduled between Philadelphia and Brooklyn for April 17 has been brought forward to April 9, on which day the now Ehbetts Stadium in Brook lyn will be opened. Should It rain that day the first game on the new Brook lyn grounds will be played on the reg ularly scheduled date, April 17. The opening day games, aside from the advanced Brooklyn opening, are: Boston at New York, St. Louis at Chi cago and Pittsburg at Cincinnati. Brooklyn opens the season In Phila delphia on that day. Pirates iet Holiday Dates. Pittsburg is more favored with holi day plums at home than any other Na tional League club. The Pirates are visited by Chicago on Decoration day, by St. Louis on July 4 and by Cincin nati on Labor day. No other club lias three at-home holidays. Cincinnati will have no holiday games, but will play IS Sunday and 13 Saturday games at home. Boston gets Patriots' day, Massachusetts' particular holiday, with New York, and Decoration day with Brooklyn. Brooklyn has July 4 with New York and Labor day with Phila delphia; New York has Decoration day with Philadelphia and Labor day with Boston, and St. Louis has Decoration day with Cincinnati and Labor day with Chicago, all at home. Comparison of the two major league schedules shown only four conflicting dates, all at Chicago April 27, May 4 and 26 and August 31. President Herrman's report on sug gested changes in the constitution of the league was laid over until the De cember meeting. Extra Money "ot Yet Disponed Of, On the question of the disposition of 25 per cent of the New York club's revenue from the world's post-season series, about 136,000, now in the hands of the National commission, the arbi trators, Bernard F. Yorke. of Brooklyn and Cornelius J. Sullivan, of this city received additional time to make their final report. , Not a single deal was completed to day, although many were spoken of The managers had cash In plenty for the purchase of players, but nobobdy apparently had a man to spare. Manager Frank Chance, of the New Tork Americans, decided today to pre cede the team to Its March training quarters in Bermuda and he will leave for the islands Saturday with Business Manager Irwin, of the club. Chance wants to get in harness as soon as possible and counts on the extra time at the training camp to give him an opportunity to get a line on his play ing condition at an early date. He lias decided to send word to all the club pitchers to leave here a week later Saturday. February 23. The other players are to sail Saturday, March L Roy Hartaell, ptllity man ager, will go to Bermuda with Chance and Erwln, while Catcher Sweeney probably will go with the pitchers the following week. Coast Body Says Hurlder Is in Good standing; Los Angeles Says No. SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 12. "Is For rest Sinithson. one time Olympic and all-American champion in the 120-yard hurdles, an amateur in good standing?" The Pacific Association of the Amer ican Athletic Union, through its chair man of registration, George James, emphatically said "yes" today while the Southern California Association as emphatically said "no" last night. If the deadlock cannot he broken, the case must go to James E. Sullivan, secretary of the National Association, for adjudi cation. Smlthson was formerly of the Mult nomah Athletic Club, later was sus pended from the Los Angeles Club, and is now a member of the Olympic Club. For failure to wear the Los Angeles Club emblem last year in the Olympic jor' trials at Stanford University he was ueciu-rcu uy tuts oumnern Association to have run "unattached" and suspend ed, although his name was printed on the programme as registered from that club. Smithson contends that he never was notified of the length of his suspension or the nature of the charges against him and his defense was accepted here. Forrest Smithson will become a bona fide member of the Olympic Club track team at San Francisco February 21. Whether or not the Southern Pacific Association at Los Angeles reinstates the former Multnomah Club high hurdle champion, he automatically becomes eligible one year from the date on which he offended by competing at the Indoor Olympic meet unattached.

PACIFIC UNIVERSITY, Forest Grove. Or., Feb. 12. (Special.) All track men have been out here for the last two weeks getting ready for the coming track meet with the Portland Y. M. C. A. on March 4. There is a number of new men out this year, but the ranks are sadly depleted with the absence of such men as Sumner Bryant, sprinter; Raymond Bryant, hurdler and broad- jump man: Benjamin Mayfield. crack weight man, and Holman Ferrln, who has for the past three years taken first place in the pole vault. New material for the sprints and hurdles is in evidence and Homer Shav er, the basketball star, is coming to the front in the weights. Captain Aus tin, who recently was elected to the M. A. A. C. track team and who has won the half-mile at the Columbia track meet previously, is out for his events. Coast Boxer Excels In Long Range Work and Assimilates Great Pun ishment Victor Is Losing Rapidly Toward Finish. LOS ANGELES, Feb. 12. Johnny Outenko, the Baltimore Dane, known to the ring as "Kid Williams." won clean-cut decision over Eddie Campi, the San Francisco bantamweight, at Vernon arena today in one of the speediest and most fiercely contested 20-round bouts ever staged on the Pa cine Coast. There was not a round that was slow. It was a battle between a tall rangy boy with speed and cleverness agamst a rugsTed little man of the Ter ry McGovern type, with a terrific punch in eitner Hand, last on his feet and knowledge of boxing seldom found In the slugger. Superior in height and reach by more than five inches, Campi excelled in long-range nghting. al though Williams frequently outfought mm at his own game. Both were mar vels of aggressivness and a remarka ble feature of the bout was the terri fic body punishment assimilated by the coast ooy. Campi Often Hanging On. Several times during the fight Will iams overwhelmed Campi with his tigerish rushes and had the latter hanging on, but Campi's recuperative powers were always in evidence. Par ticularly was this true of the last round, when Campi. fighting desuer- ately to overcome Williams' long lead. rained a volley of blows on the East erner's face and body that made him dizzy. Williams' head was sent back with blows which had more force be hind them than anything shown bv Campi during the 19 preceding rounds and Williams could do nothing. Campi's nasn, nowevor, was not sufficient t" balance the long lead that Williams had piled up. Campi could be credited with but six rounds. In the first he easily out boxed Williams, but the latter's- Inde fatigable infighting gave him the next two. Campi fairly smothered the smaller lad in the fourth with jabs to the face which kept him away. The fifth round was fairly even and v Illiams again took the lead in the sixth. Fierce battling marked the seventh, with tigerish, catapulting rushes by Williams, in which he pumped with both hands to the body. Campi withstood the fusillade and was fighting hack gamely at the bell. Jabs to Face Stop Dane. The eighth and ninth rounds also were Wiiliams' rounds, but in the tenth the Easterner was sh wed up by a se--ies of hard Jabs to . the face which gave Campi the round bv n wide mar gin. Campi also had the better of the 11th, during which he forced the fight ing and landed at will. A hard left counter to the jaw and superior work at close range gave the uit 10 wiuiams bp a shade and in the next two rounds he had Campi in distress with his vicious infighting. In the 15th Williams hurled himself at Campi, who drove him back with hard lefts and rights to the face. The 16th found both slugging viciously and neither breaking ground, the round ending with honors even. Williams had Campi holding on in the next two rounds, during whlci he punished the Native Son severely. The 19th was a repetition, Campi covering and holding, but he rallied toward the end of the round and both fought vic iously for several seconds after the gong rang. Referee Eyton's decision was well received. Despite the fact that Campi was personally a great favorite, the ringside betting favored Williams at 10 to 8.

J. Stewart unjustly accuses him when he says he was unfair. "I called about 26 fouls, evenly divided, and while I'll admit the games were rough, the Corvallls boys took out time on nearly every penalty to argue," says Edmundson. Now they say they want ed them called even stricter. Nobody loves an umpire and few have kind words for a referee, but some one has to be the goat and I had to take the Job."

San Francisco bought a second base man named Edward Colligan from Des Moines, of the Western League, and now comes the announcement that he broke a leg a while back in New York and will not be able to play. He Is not the first cripple th'at Cal Ewlng has purchased.
