MAY BE BUllFIGHTS
ON AMERICAN SOIL.
Elaborate Preparations In Salt Lake
Include Matadors and Mexican Bulls.

Indications that an attempt is % be
made TO have real buHhghts on Ameri-
can soil are causing much excitement
among people In Salt Lake City who
are opposed to such things. There
are evidences that the same forces
which prevented the Johnson-J eGries
fight in Utah will soon be arrayed to
prevent a spectacle which they would
consider far worse than pugilisIn-
There were hints Of great things to
come a few weeks ago when Felix
Robert, a French matador. recently
arranged with the management Of
SaltAir, a resort on the Great salt
lake, for a great Spanish festival, 70
begin July % and last eight days. No
alarming announcement OF real bull
fight was made, but 1t was said that
real men of the bull ring would be
present, and hints were given that
their talent would not be entirely
wasted.
Now the management Of Saltair has
made IL known that Robert. who went
10 Mexico recently 10 arrange for the
toreadors, dancing girls and others for
the troupe. has engaged some of the
most successful bulldEhters of the
capital itself. More significantly, it Is
announced that he has purchased
carload OF specially bred fighting bulls
such as are killed IN the rings in Mex
ico. II is remarked 10y one local pa
per that evidently something OGt OF
the ordinary is ia store for people who
attend that affair" Except on Sun
days evening performances are to be
given in an inclosure that certainly
closely resembles a bull ring.
IL is only since the announcement
Of the purchase Of The specially bred
bulls that the church people Of Salt
Lake City have begun 10 be aroused.
They cannot understand why noted
toreadors and fine bulls are brought
unless for real bullfightS and suspect
that there is a purpose quietly 70 in
troduce such performances and then
attempt TO give them in othe- states.
