Organization Meet
 Of Musical Events
 Club This Evening

The organization meeting of the NIusi- cal Events club, Bisbee's newest group. the purpose of which is to promote in- terest in music by aiding in bringing artists of merit to the city. will he held this evening at the Y WIG. A. All who are interested in the movement to secure the best in music for the coming season are cordially invited to attend the meeting.
 There will be no dues for membership in the club and all music lovers are ask ed to join. The purchase of a season ticket for the winters series. the price of which has been put within the reach of the most modest purse. will give the holder a voting privilege. The only re- quirement. for membership is a desire to aid in increasing the musical activity in the district
 The course of five concerts which is assured for next winter will be the in- troduction for the club. It is hoped that as large an attendance as possible will be at the meeting this evening. There prob- ably will be no more meetings until September.

 MEN INVESTING
 IN O|L FIELDS
Extensive Purchases By the
 Guqgenheims Are Typical of
 Influx of Outside Capital Into the Texas Oil Belt

AUSTIN. Texas July 21-It Is known by recorded transactions that many men or staid and conservative judgment. par-
 lcularly along investment lines. have entered the oil industry in competition with the older and larger well-established operating companies. What the outcome or the great influx of new and iude- pendent capital into the various branches of the industry will be no one ventures to predict. It is evident that the excess profits of many large manufacturing en- terprises are being invested in oil leases and producing wells in Texas.
 The recent purchase of the extensive holdings of the Gates Oil company by the Guggenheims is an illustration of the general drift of outside capital to the oil fields of this state Already sev- eral companies have developed into big operating concerns through the develop- ment Of their respective properties or the purchase and merging of other holdings. These growing corporations are following much the same lines as marked the de- velopment of such companies as the
 Texas company. the Humble Oil S Refin- ing company. the Empire Oil & Gas com pany and host of others that are now important factors in the industry

 the different proved fields as well as in territory that, may be many miles re-

MEETS
 GUNDY IN BOUT
 HERE THIS EVE

Tonight the Warren District Ath- letic club will entertaim the flight fans with a program of boxing which those in charge expect will be the best ever seen in Bisbee.
 Kid George, matchmaker, has ar ranged for 30 rounds of first class boxing with a ten round bout be- tween Nick Gundy and Ralph Lincoln as the main attraction. Nick Gundy is the featherYeight champion of the border and Lincoln is the man who defeated Bobby Burns here on the night of July 4th Gundy and Lin coin both stated yesterday that they were confident of getting the decis- ion and Referee George says they are evenly matched and both being young he believes it will be one of the best fights ever staged in the southwest.
 The semi-final will be a six-round bout between Johnny Hughes and Ralph Cameron. Hughes is Bisbee boy and is well known here Gamer on has just returned from overseas and has record of fighting there that should give Hughes a run for his money
 The third bout will be 6 rounds be. tween heavyweights, Frank Ford and Bob Collins. Both are local boys and have been in training hard during the past two weeks, so that this affair promises to be well worth seeing.
 The curtain raiser of rounds by the Zumsteg brothers, ages g and II, will be most interesting, judging by the performance of the midgets here on July 4. The doors will be open and seats can be reserved today at the Wallace pool hall, the Conner cial Club and Twomey's for S1, S2, and $3.

BUNK
OF EMPLOYERS
CALLED
Two Returned Soldiers and
One Sailor Named AS
Committee to Wait on
Mine Owners.
Especial to The Bulletin. J

Park City, Utah, May 16.-With
the Miners Union hall filled TO Ca
pacity and the ante-rooms and the
stairway leading to the hall jammed
with workers unable to gain admit
tance, the striking miners of Park
City gathered in mass meeting yes
terday afternoon and voted solidly
against returning to work until the
demands for which they had struck
had been complied with by the oper.
ators.
The patriotic bluff of the mine
operators to the effect that the strike
and unrest in the camp was due to
outside "anarchistic'' Influence
being brought to bear on the strike
committee, was called, when the
strikers adopted a resolution declar-
ing that the committee was represen-
tative of every man on strike in the
camp. In the discussions on the
adoption of this resolution it was
brought out in plain and unmistak
able language that the real cause of
the industrial strife in Park City was
the autocratic action of the mine
owners themselves in cutting the
workers wages in the middle of the
winter when they were unorganIzed
and unable to protect their own in
terests, and the subsequent despotic
action of the employers in refusing TO
consider any demands of the miners
looking to betterment of working
conditions and increase in wages
commensurate with the ever increas-
ing cost of living.
In order that the veil of hypocrisy
with which the mine operators have
masked themselves from the begin
ming of the strike might be entirely =
torn aside, and that they be shown up
to the people of Utah in their true
colors, a subcommittee of three
members of the general strike COM
mittee composed of two returned sol
diers and one sailor was elected to
wait upon the mine managers here,
and, if necessary, the other officials
and owners in Salt Lake city and de-
mand a showdown on the original de-
mands of the miners, which the oper-
ators have refused to consider on the
grounds that the committee was 'un-
patriotic This committee has called
on all officials of the various com
panies here and will leave for Salt
Lake this afternoon, returning to re-
port Sunday or Monday ON the re-
suits of their conference.
The morale of the strikers is
splendid, with the general sentiment
throughout the camp being in favor
of standing firm until the demands
are complied with. The only appar-
ent lack of unanimity is on the uues-
ton of the six-hour day. some of the
strikers expressing a willingness to
give way to the operators on this on.

Expressing determination to re-

the additional increase in street car

A discussion of the question of the
