HERO OR NO HERO,
 DANIELS TO DECIDE
Capt. ChaInberlain'S Case May
 Be Settled Soon

Washington, Dec. 5.-Captain Ed mund G. Cham berlain, United Statc> Marine Corps, Aviation section, 's held in arrest within the bounds oi Washington pending final action upon v the record of his court-martlal Ill England by Secretary of the Navy Daniels
 Captain Chamberlain, who halls from Texas, came into prominence In August, 1918. when it was reported .. from the British front that he had been allowed to fly while on visit and had brought down seven German planes. driven off a patrol of Germans after he was brought down between the lines and had carried to safety a wounded French officer
 He was recommended for the Victoria Cross and the Congressional Medal, but British air officers after ward denied knowledge of the feat and the Navy department conducted an investigation. The court held long sessions in London and France and obtained much conflicting testimony. An attempt was made to show that Chamberlain had forged reports.
 Major-General Salmond, of the British Air Service declared after an investigation that no British office. knew of the alleged feat. Various British air officers backed him at the inquiry. Major R. S. Maxwell, who commanded a squadron in the viciu- ity denied knowing of any such flight, but on cross examination ad- mi haN because an officer who permitted an unofficial flight would lose rank. He also admitted that in the January afterWard, meeting Chamberlain at an officers ~n}ess, he said:
 Aren't you the fellow that stole camel Oype of airplane) from us at Tonquin ?"
 The British flying forces offered a chart and expert to show that Cham berlain had forged reports, but Mr. Gurrin, a leading English handwrit- ing expert, declared to the contrary
 Georgette Bonizet, daughter of the mayor of Ste. Jemme, said she had heard French soldiers tell of such m exploit and had seen a machine such as that Chamberlain described which had been brought down between the lines Other French witnesses said they heard British flying officers talking of an American who had en- gagged in a daring flight.
 The record of the court martial which followed is very voluminous While press dispatches at the time of the trial indicated that the charges against the Marine Corps aviator had not been sustained. the, accused ap- parentlE has not yet been released from arrest and restored to active duty

BULL FIGHTING
 TO BE RESTORED
Energetic Effort Being Made to Bring About Return of Popular
 Sport in Mexico.
Sport in Mexico

Mexico City, Dec. 5.--An energetic effort is being made to restore bull fighting, which has been in eclipse since President Carranza in 1915 pro- hibited such spectacles in the federal district and officials elsewhere owned upon the sport. A petition asking that the presidential decree be re- voked, signed by more than one thou sand citizens of the city of Orizaba, is now in. the hands of the chamber of deputies and action upon it by the lower house is expected shortly. A simila~ petition last year failed in it's purpose by a single vote. Many persons believe. that, with stronger pressure brought to bear this year, a favorable decision will be reached.
 Indicative of a desire to see how far they may go without official in terference, is the staging of several exhibitions in Mexico City and it's suburbs within the past few weeks, while President Carranza was away on vacation. Advertised as mere ex- hibitions in which we'll known mata- dors would play with the bull" they . developed into the real thing and once again the "pelados' had cheap meat on Monday, the poor class of natives always by custom being given the carcass of the bull after he is slain
 The newspapers were not inclined to censure this technical infraction of law. Instead they devoted columns to descriptions of the fights, comparing them with similar exhibitions before AJ the prohibitive decree.

CARLISLE EXPLAINS
 HOW HE WAS CAUGHT
Bandit Says He Misjudged Speed
 Of Posse

Denver, Col, Dec. 5.-William L. Carlisle, lyisg in the Douglas, Wyo., hospital with bullet in his lungs, gave an account of his career since his escape from the RaWlins, Wyo., prison to pr. Lee w. Story, in charge of the hospital, while Dr. Story and the hospital staff were dressing his two gunshot wounds. Carlisle has been ordered not to talk until his condition grows better and no one except the physicians and nurses are allowed at his bedside, but he talked freely when admitted to the hospital, volunteering the following statement in answer to questions asked by Dr. Story:
 They caught me because I mis- judged the speed of the posse I knew the posse was on my trail, but thought I was three hours ahead. It turned out that I was only half an hour. and they got me at ranch where I stopped for a meal. I was not armed, because 1 always hid my gun in the brush before going to ranch house, so that I wouldn't scare
 
 in I was so startled that I jumped and they shot me. After 1 got out of the penitentiary 1 got clothes and a gun but was short of change so l held up the Union Pacific at Medi- cine Bow. They shot me in the right hand when I was leaving.
 Prom Medicine Bow | went straight into the Laramie Peak coun- try and have been there ever since. I didn't write any letter or telegrams to newspapers, and I was not in Cas- per or any places they say l was in. I stopped at ranches all the time during the last two weeks. I'd al ways hide my guns and then go up to the house. Most of the people recognized me. Some pretended they didn't, but lots of them called me Carlisle. They all treated me fine.
 q could see that some of them were nervous to have me around, so when I struck, people like that | moved on again as soon as l could. Only a few people turned me down when l asked for meals.
 When they got me I was coming into Douglas to have this hand dressed as the wound l got from the Union Pacific job has been both ering me sOme.'

PREDICT UPRISING
Australian CavaIrymcn Report Rcvo- lutiOnary Spirit Permcatcs Sections of That Country.

Sydney, Dec. 5, (By The Associated Press) ).-Australian cavalrymen who returned home from Egypt early in September predict another uprising in that country. They say that all Egypt is permeated with the revo- lutionary spirit and that at the first favorable opportunity there will be a conflict on a big scale between the Egyptians and the English soldiers. According to the cavalrymen the Egyptians are determined upon self government, and they think that they will strike another blow for it when all the Australian troops have been repatriated.
 The cavalrymen believe that the Egyptian revolutionists have plenty of arms hidden away outside villages. This belief is based upon successful raids by the military towards the Sudan in search of concealed arms and munitions.
