JONES WIRES HIS ULTIMATUM TO
HESTER AND MAY CALL OFF BOUT
BECOMES WEARY OF LAX BUSINESS METHODS AND DISCOUR
TESIES OF NORTHERN PROMOTER
Informs Him That He Must Do Business by Noon Today or All
Negotiations for Nelson-Wolgast Championship Battle Will Be
Called Off—lnsists That Intermeddler Show His Good
Faith by Complying with Demand That Cash, Instead
of Stage Money, Be Deposited Immediately with
Some Reputable Man as Club Guarantee
JAY DAVIDSON
DEVELOPMENTS yesterday in the long-drawn-out negotiations
for a scrap between Battling Nelson and Ad Wolgast before
Sid Hester's mythical fight club north of the Tehachapi some
where, point rather definitely to a complete failure and the fans need
not be a bit surprised if announcement is made by all concerned
parties within twenty-four hours that there will be no such fight.
Tom Jones, the very capable manager of Wolgast, telegraphed an
ultimatum to Hester yesterday in which he gave the promoter until
noon today to come to taw and do business.
Jones said yesterday that he had
grown weary of the lax business meth
ods of Hester, and did not propose to
be jollied along any further. He holds
that if Hester can get a certified check
he also can get the cash, and that if he
is acting in good faith about the match
he will not hesitate about putting up
the cashyin the hands of a reputable
stakeholder. It is on this point that
Jones is insisting—that cash, instead of
check!, shall be posted as the club
guarantee that the fight will be held.
He has telegraphed Hester several
times since" receiving the articles of
agreement an d the promoter has Ig
nored them all. It does not spell good
faith to Jones, and ho will have no more
of it. Hester must post the club forfeit
in cash with John Clark, and do It
qlllcklyi or the negotiations will be
terminated by Jones. He Is of the opin
ion that Nelson is at the bottom of it
all and does not want to fight Wolgast.
Iffcthis is the case, Jones says he wants
to know it before he goes to. the ex
pense of training.
The biggest consideration to Wolgast
nnd Jones in this fight will be the
chance to win the lightweight crown.
Wolgast is supremely confident of his
ability to whip Nelson, as is Jones, and
the pair are almost willing to fight for

Hester ever succeeds in getting both fight

ANGELS MAY RETAIN
CATCHER ORENDORFF
President Murphy of Chicago Cubs
Not Certain Yet Whether He
Will Be Able to Use
Crack Backstop
CHICAGO, Jan. 12.—Dispatches from Los
Angeles relative to the disposition to be made
of Catcher Orendorff, yesterday, brought out
the following statement from President "Mur
pay of the Chicago Nattonal League club:
"There has been no misunderstanding be
tween Manager Chance and myself regarding
the disposition of Orendorff, catcher of the
1..0S Angeles club. I have not informed the
Coast League club that I am going to take
Orendorff. On January 4. I wrote Henry
Berry, president of the Los Angelea club, ask
ing him if he wanted the player back in the
event Chicago did not care to keep him.
"Under" rule 42 of the national agreement,
no major league club has a right to dispose
of a player secured from a class A league
until the club from which he has been pro
cured has a chance to Bay whether It wants
him back at the same price paid In draft. I
was merely paving the way for us in case
we did not wish to retain the player. There
has been no conflict between Chance and my
self."
JACKSONVILLE RESULTS
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Jan. 12,-Hose Arkle
proved the good thing In the opening event to
day, winning easily from Hertha X, the

nothing just to get a chance at the title,
but Wolgast can get $4500 for his end
of the purse in Los Angeles and does
not porpose to run away from it to take
nothing or worse at Frisco.
While willing that Nelson shall re
ceive $12,000 for his end, Jones insi***
that Wolgast shall get the money that
he has agreed to fight for, and since he
is taking the worst of the division of
the purse he naturally wants to min
imize thochances of losing that small
sum. In other words, if he has to
fight for nothing to get a chanoe at the
title he wants to know it In advance.
Wolgast and Jones are disgusted with
the methods of Hester, and it need not
surprise anybody If they call off nego
tiations at noon today. Wolgast made
$4000 in two fights here since he came
back from New Orleans, and can
knock out about $4000 a month fighting
for MeCarey. So he is not losing any
thing by throwing up the match with
Nelson if Hester fails to make good in
a businesslike manner. Another match
between Wolgast and Memslc would fill
Naud pavilion, and there are several
good lightweights hanging around for
a chance at the Dutchman. Ad would
run little risk in fighting them, and
would pick up about $2000 ahead for his
trouble. For these reasons he Is In
clined to feel a bit independent in the
matter of negotiating with Hester.

ter week. Bob Fltzsimmons will remain In
Australia to train Ketchel.
There 1» a letter at this office for Captain
Moru of the Japanese Bnsebfill club. Call at
tho sporting editor's desk.
John li. Herget, formerly known as Toung
Mitchell, now head of the Frisco police com
mittee of the board of supervisors, wants to
aid In amending the ordinance relating to
boxing so that the Jeffries-Johnson scrap can
be held in the city, but he will oppose grant-
Ing a permit to Tex Rlckard or any other
outsider. Ho thinks the home folk have first
call in such matters. Glad there ie somebody
up there who deserves commendation and ap
plause.
Jockey George Mountain, well known In Los
Angeles, has been granted a Jockey license
by the Southern Jockey club, but will be re
stricted to mounts for his contract employer,
W. H. Fizer. The latter is one of the owners
of he Tampa Bay racing plant and it was due
to his influence that Mountain gets back into
tha game. George was one of the truly great
Jockey* of a few years ago and his near
banishment from the sport was the result of
personal 111 will of a certain prominent turf
man.
It Is difficult to understand the motive that
is behind all this unfair rousting of the
Juarez racs meeting. Matt J. Winn, John O.
Follansbee, Lyman Davis. W. H. Shelly, E
W. McKenna, Price McKinney and former
Governor Terrazas of Chihuahua are the men
who arc* back of the Jockey Club Juarez.
Winn, Follansbee and Davis hnve a long' and
honorable career on the turf that should ab
solve them from any Inclusion in elura that
reflect not only upon them as men, but as
rncinp officials. McKenna ia vice president of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway
and his record ia good enough for comparison
with the average business man, beyond doubt.
Prince McKinney Is a multimillionaire manu
facturer and banker of Cleveland, and so far
as is known haa lived honorably and rendered
unto every man his Just due. Governor Ter
razas is the wealthiest citizen of Mexico, an
octogenarian and a thoroughbred sportsman.
He, too. Is far too wealthy to hnvn to stoop
to preying upon that element which patronises
the Juarez race meeting. All these mon are
good sportsmen, proved so, and are making «,
game uphill flght against great odds to estab
lish the sport" of kings in Mexico. They de
serve commendation Instead of abuse, especially
sinee 1 the sport at Juarez more nearly deserves
the classification as a sport than many other
race meetings that have been held In the last
twelve months. It never will d^Yelop into a
crap game with such men as these promoting
it, and there never will be any complaint re
garding the Integrity of the sport as long as
they conduct it.
LOT OF IDLE TALK FROM
PITTSBURG HOT AIR PLANT
PITTSBURG, Jan. Buck Cornelius of
Pittsburg will Boon go into training. It has
been practically decided that he Is to referee
the fight between Jim Jeffries and Jack John
son next summer and he must get down to .
hard work. He will -wrestle, box and exercise
with the apparatus until he loses forty of his
220 pounds. Both fighters are satisfied that
they cannot do better than select Cornelius as
referee. Jeffries said during his lest visit here
that he was entirely satisfied and left it up
to Johnson. Johnson then came along and
said he preferred Cornelius over all the oth
ers. So It is practically settled.

AUTOISTS PROTEST AT •
PROPOSED LEGISLATION
San Mateo Plan to Give Half of Fine
Money to Informer la
Decried
H. M. Owens, president of the San
Francisco Motor club, has taken up
the proposition of the officials of San
Mateo county who are considering an
ordinance to prevrot speeding of autos.
The ordinance proposes to give half of
the fine to those who inform on the
speeders. Owens has written to J. J.
Bullock, district attorney of San Ma
teo county, on the subject, and will be
in attendance at the next meeting of
the board of supervisors to protest
against the passing of the ordinance.
This is the ridiculous ordinance, the
conditions of which give to an inform
er half of the fine imposed upon an al
leged offender. As a general rule an
informer is a cultivated liar, whose
word is totally and absolutely without
credit, and the passage of such an
ordinance would be to revert to the
time of the informer and of the Cove
nanters. Such a law even in an ob
scure county of California would be a
disgrace to the state.

DEALERS AT WORK
FOR AUTO SHOW
ENERGY DISPLAYED FOR FEB
RUARY EVENT
ONLY LICENSED CARS TO BE
DISPLAYED
Hamburger's Store Will Probably Be
Location of Greatest Affair
of Its Kind in the
West
Los Angeles is to have an automobile show
upon plane and specifications such as this city
has never known before. Arrangements were
Initiated last night at a meeting of the Au
tomobile Dealers' association handling licensed
cars under the protection of the Selden pat
ents for not only the largest, but the most
artistic and generous display of the latest
models of automobiles ever seen west of Chl-
With the enthusiasm and energy for which
the dealers of Los Angeles are noted, a very
large meeting was held last night and the
first proposal of the organization was that
Los Angeles should have an automobile show
which would compare more than favorably
with any that haa ever been given In the
larger eastern cities.
The date for the show will be Febru
ary 19 to 26 Inclusive, Sunday excepteu, and
It la probable that the place of the exhibition
will be In the Hamburger stores on the fourth
floor—an ideal plac« for convenience as well
as handsome quarters. There will be 40.000
square feet of room, and It Is already as
sured that the enormous floor space of this
handsome building will scarcely cara for the
applications for space. The deal for this ex
hibition place will probably be concluded by
this morning, but the committee has antici
pated any delay in securing these Quarters by
another arrangement which will be fully as
ample and complete as though the Hamburger
space had been secured. The main point
abuut Hamburgers, however, Is the central
and well-known location of the big store,
which is within the reach of every car line
in tho city of Los Angeles, for there are but
few people in Southern California who are
unaware of Hamburgers, the Wanamakera of
California.
Manager to Be Appointed
At the meeting last night, while all the
preliminaries of the biggest automobile dis
play ever seen on the Pacific cpast were not
concluded, among which was the selection of
the general manager of the show, the ap
pointment will bo made within a very few
days, and it may be deemed sure that he will
be of the "hot number" series. A man, well
in mind, U before the directors, esteemed for
his genial personality and his exceptional ex
ecutive ability, and to him will be entrusted
all of the details of the greatest automobile
show the people of California have ever seen,
without any exceptions.
There will be at least forty-four exhibitors
and these forty-four have promised that each
of the companies will have the largest display
of models ever seen under one roof here. The
cars to be shown are all of the licensed class
that Is—they come under the protection of the
Selden patents, anu what will please the pub
lic most will be the fact that such cars as
the Peerless and Wilton and Chadwlcks and
Seldens and Everetts will be seen only at this
great exposition of the latest designs of au
tomobiles quite as attractive In proportion as
even the great show now on in New York.
These together with all ihe ether cars to be
seen at this exhibition, will be seen at no
other show In Los Angeles, and the Herald
will give tomorrow a full list of the lines of
cars that will be shown.
The enthusiasm with which the members of
tho licensed dealers entered Into the purposes
of the association last night Indicates what
may be expected when the automobile show
opens. Each of the members Individually feel
that the year 1910 Is to be the greatest year
In the automobile Industry.
Autos at Aviation Meet
One need but attend the aviation meet this
week to discover the extent of the use of the
automobile In thlß city, and with the most
promising year for the trade yet known, and
the promised assistance of the greatest fac
tories in the world to foster and aid the deal
ers here In their exhibit, all past Bhows will
be simply Insignificant In either extent of It
as a whole, and the variety of the models
which each of the several agents will display.
Already the telegraph wires from this city
are ticking heavily the messages to manufac
turers for lines of models such i: are being
shown this week at the big New York show,
and when the doors open for the Los Angeles
exhibition there will be a revelation in what
the automobile of 1910 is.
Tomorrow the Herald will tlve a complete
and fuil list of all the cars which are to be
given a representation, and when this Is
shown the public will have some general Idea
of what is to be expected from the LictdUd

It requires, but a glance at the columns "of

dormant for so long and which was dug up
by Tho Herald, stripped of her fancy dress
and clad in racing costume, remains untold
this morning. Tho stunts this car performed
yesterday, and others laid out for her to per
form are forthcoming, anri It will open the
eyes of many to know that the Mollne, a
Httls 11650 machine, 1h able to put many
of the fancy fry at four times her price in
the back seats.
