The Chinese plenipotentiaries did
not sign and were not present. They
have written to the president of the
conference stating that they would
not be present and that they were
awaiting instructions from their gov-
ernment.
President Clemenceau put the di-
rect question to the Germans wheth-
er they were willing to sign and exe-
cute loyally all the terms. The other
delegates did not rise when the Ger-
mans came into the hall.
General Jan Christian Smuts, one of
the delegates representing the Union
of South Africa, signed the treaty
under protest. He objected to certain
territorial settlements making
lengthy statement.
The protocol was signed by all
those who signed the peace treaty.
The Rhine arrangement was signed
by the American, Belgian, British and
French plenipotentiaries.
All the plenipotentiaries having
signed the treaty, M. Clemenceau de-
clared the session closed.
German Envoys Depart First
The German delegates left the hall
first, the allied repreeentatfves re-
maining in their seats. Those who
had assembled In the hall then went
to the terrace to see the fountains
playing.
Premiers Clemenceau and Lloyd
George and President Wilson were
photographed together on the terrace.
After the demonstrations the three al-
lied leaders left Versailles in the
same automobile, the crowds follow-
ing and cheering.
At a small table in the center of
the great Hall of Mirrors, the chief
room of the palace here, representa-
tives of the German republic meekly
accepted the peace terms wljlch prac-
tically ends Germany as a world pow-
er, at least for many years. It was
this same room which witnessed the
arrogance of Bismarck and Von
Moltke, and today the representatives
of the defeated German empire ac
cepted the fate which resulted from
the junker's dream of world dictator-
ship.
Crime Five Years Ago
It is five years ago that the plotted
assassination of the Austrian arch-
duke Francis Ferdinand furnished the
excuse Germany sought for starting
the world conflict. Sarajevo's tragedy
has made the great central empires
suppliants.
The situation in Versailles is the
fulfilment of the greatest drama in
modern history. Gathered around the
historic hall were the representatives
of every great nation in the world.
Only smaller neutral nations were
missing.
The great horseshoe-shaped table
held the representatives of every pow-
the German delegates were seated.
The contrast was very sharp. The
old Prussian arrogance was not re-
vealed by the members of the German
cabinet, who had assumed the duty of
salvaging what was left of their
country.
How Envoys Were Seated
The seating arrangement of the del-
egates were as follows:
On President Wilson's side of the
table: Secretary Lansing, Colonel
House, Henry White. General BUs&
and after them the French, Italian.
Belgian and Greek delegates. Swing-
ing around the horseshoe were the
Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Ctech
Slovakia, Siamese, Cuban and Chin-
ese delegates. At the left of Premier
Lloyd George were the other repre-
sentatives of Britain and her domin-
ions and the Japanese.
Swinging around the corner were
the representatives of Germany, Bra-
lil, Bolivia. Uruguay. Peru, Panama.
Nicaraugua, Liberia, Honduras, Haylt,
Guatemala and Ecuador.
Marshal Foch waa seated among the
French delegates. He waa not a
peace plenipotentiary and did not
sign the great document.
Of the Italian delegation only three
were present—Baron Sonnino, M. Im-
perial! and Crespi. The others had
not arrived at a late hour.
Paris was enfete for the occasion.
A holiday was proclaimed through-
out. From every building hung the
flags of the allied nations. Thou-
sands of persons in holiday attire
gathered along the roads leading to
Versailles. The streets, as usual were
heavily guarded by troops. Through
packed lanes of humanity the delega-
tions passed, one by one, their motors
flaunting the flags of practically all
nations except those which made up
the central powers, and the few neu-
trals not represented.
The arrival of each delegation was
heralded by a trumpeter. After being
saluted the members were taken in
charge by attendants and conducted
to the places assigned for them.
Impressive Scene
The scene during the signing of the
treaty was most impressive. The ma
jority of those present were plainly
nervous.
Premier Clemenceau-sat deep in
his chair, half scowling as he swept
the room with glances from beneath
his bushy eyebrows. If anything he
seemed tinier than ever. His hands
were encased in the inevitable white
gloves.
Italians Nervoue
The Italians were plainly nervous.
The Japanese, on the other hand,
were unperturbed and placidly gazed
at the beauties of the room, outward-
ly unconcerned over the momentous
happenings.
There were troops everywhere,
lending a picturesque touch of color
to the scene.
Mrs. Wilson, wife of the president,
occupied a prominent seat in the front
row of spectators. She was attended
by Admiral Grayson, the president's
physician. __
The German delegates presented a
contrast in appearances. Dr. Mueller
plainly showed that he had been la-
boring under a great strain and had
a drawn appearance. Dr. Bell, on the
other hand, was plainly pleased that
he had been selected as one of the
German delegates to sign the treaty.
He took a keen interest in all that
went on.
Toll and local exchange telephone
rates would be continued four months
unless sooner changed by state com-
missions, under the conference agree-
ment—a compromise between the
ninety days' rate extension clause of
the senate bill and the six months'
continuance proposed by the house.
The Johnson resolution providing
for deportation of certain undesirable
aliens was reported out by the house
immigration committee. An efTort
will be made to secure a special rule
to make It immediately In order for
consideration in the house.
An amendment adopted by the com-
mittee denies readmlsslon to the
United States to any person deported
under this legislation.

Tauscher, Dr. Karl Muck and other
Germans of similar status, will never

Premier Clemenceau has expressed
his intention to resign from office as
soon as the treaty is promulgated,
feeling that he has accomplished the
task for which he assumed the pre-
miership.
"We have waited forty-nine years
for this moment," exclaimed Premier
Clemenceau as he opened the dis-
patch announcing that Germany
would sign the treaty. "For forty-
nine years," he continued, "the mail-
ed fist of the reiter (German trooper)
who has governed Germany, has men-
aced the world. Whether the man's
name was Bismarck or William II, it
waa still the same reiter of the mid-

Even with this and other changes
the bill as reported out is considered
as all-embracing. So drastic are its
provisions, members of the committee
said, that while a man may put a keg

The bill's definition of what is in-
toxicating liquor—any beverage or
product containing more than one-
half of one per cent alcohol—was re-
tained. It was said that members of
the committee discussed this section
at length, some contending that if one
congress undertook to define Intoxi-
cating liquors as one-half of one per
cent, another congress could come
along and make it four per cent, or
any figure it chose. There was just a
