Versailles, Juno JtO. TIio. greatest
war In nil history formally ended Sat
urday afternoon with the signing of
tho poiico treaty. Tho historic scene
took place In the Ilnll of Mirrors at
Versulllas, whoro tho Germans hum
bled tho French so Ignomlnlously
In 1870.
After preparing for forty yours for
wur and world domination, tho treaty
which forever shuttered their dream
was Hlgnod In as many minutes. The
deiluiil attitude of the Germans was
noted nhove nil Incidents.
Tho eeremony was marked by cir
cumstances which Hotnewhat dimmed
the expectations of those who had
worked and fought during long years
of war and months of negotiations for
Its achievement.
Tho absence of the Chinese dele
gates, who at tho last moment were
unable to reconcile themselves to the
Shantung settlement, and left the
eastern empire outside tho formal
purviews of peace, struck the first dis
cordant noto In tho assembly. A writ
ten protest which General .Tan Chris
tian Smuts lodged with his slgnnturo
was another disappointment to the
makers of tho treaty.
The Gorman delegates, Foreign
Minister Mueller nnd Minister Bell,
were ushered Into tho Ilnll of Mirrors
nt 8 :08 o'clock. ' s
French Premier Clemenceau Imme
diately opened tho meeting by assur
ing tho Germnns tho treaty text was

them. Tho French premier In a sol
emn tono mild:
"Tho session Is open. Tho nllled
and associated powers on one side nnd
the German rolch on tho other side
Imvo como to an agreement on the
conditions of peace. Tho text hns
been completed, drafted, and the
president of the conference has stated
In writing that tho text that Is about
to bo signed now Is Identical with the
200 copies that have been delivered to
tho 'German delegation.
"Tho signatures will bo given now,
and they amount to a solemn under
taking, faithfully and loyally to exe
cute tho conditions embodied by this
treaty of peace. I now Invito tho defe
cates of the German relch to sign the
treaty."
Mueller was tho first to sign, placing
his signature on tho document nt 3 :12,
Hall followed him. President Wilson,
tho first of tho nlllod delegates to sign,
wrote his nnmo on tho treaty at 3:14.
British Premier Lloyd-George signed
two minutes later.
General Smuts, representing South
Africa, signed under protest, Issuing
a statement setting forth his objec
tions to tho treaty.
Tho signing was by delegations, In
tho following order:

ncludlng colonlnls), French, Italians,
Japnnoso, and smaller nations.
Clemencenu declared tho proceedings
closed nt 8:50, tho entire ceremony oc
cupylng forty-ono minutes.
"Tho conditions of ponco aro now an
accomplished fact; tho proceedings
are closed," Clemencenu snld..
Tho allied delegates remained .seated
as tho Germans departed at 3 ;52,
Tho ceremony had been planned do
llborately to bo austero, befitting the
sorrows nnd sufferings of almost flvo
years and tho lack of ImpresslvenoHs
and picturesque color, of which many
spectators, who had expected a mag
nlflcent statu pageant, complained wns
n mutter of design, not merely omls
us!on.
Tho actual ceremony was far shorter
than had been expected, In view of
tho number of signatures which woro
to bo appended to tho treaty and tho
two accompanying conventions.
The only uniforms seen in tho long
hall to match tho rich coloring of tho
celling, the paintings nnd magnificent
marbles, which Louis IX built Into his
chateauf were those of n group of
ullled generals, almost ml wearing the
flaming scarlet sash of tho Legion of
Honor und tho ceremonial scarlet nnd
white- garb of tho famous French re
public gunrd, who wcru stationed
about tho hall,
General Pershing and Marshal Foch
were among the general present,
Among tho American guests woro Mrs,
Wilson, Mrs. Lansing, Mrs, House,
Mrs. Wnlhtce, Mrs. Scott and suvornl
other wives of tho delegates nnd of

"My fellow Countrymen: Tho
treaty of poaco hns been signed. If
It Is rutlflojrt and acted upon In full
nnd slncoro execution of Its terms, It
will furnish tho charter for a now
order of affairs In tho world. It Is a
severo trcnty in tho duties anil pen
alties It Imposes upon Germany, but
It Is severe only because great wrongs
dono by Germany are to bo righted
nnd repaired ; It Imposes notning
that Germany cannot do; nnd Mio
can regain her rightful standing In
tho world by tho prompt and honor
able fulfillment of Its tonus.
'And It Is much more than a treaty
of peace with Germany. It liberates
great peoples who have never before
been ablo to find the wny to liberty.
It ends, once for all, nn old nnd In
tolerable order which small groups of
selfish men could use the peoples of
great empires to servo their ambition
for powor and domination, it asso
ciates tho freo governments of tho
world In a permnnent league In
which they aro pledged to use their
united power to maintain peaco by
maintaining right nnd Justice.
"It makes International law a reality
supported by lmcpratlvc sanctions.
It does nway with the right of con
quest and rejects tho policy of an
nexation and substitutes a new order
under which bnckward nntlons
populations which hnvo not yet como
to a political consclusness and peo
pled who aro ready for Independence,
hut not yet quite- prepared to dls
penso with protection nnd guidance!
shall no more bo subjected to the
domination nnd exploitation of a
stronger nation, but shall be put
under tho friendly direction nnd af
forded tho helpful assistance of gov
ernments which undertake to be re
sponsible to tho opinion of mankind
In tho execution of their task by ac
cepting tho direction of the league of
nations.
"It recognizes tho Inalienable rights
of nationality: tho rights of minori
ties nnd tho sanctity of religious be
lief nnd practice. It lays tho basis
for conventions which shnll freo the
cotnmerclol intercourse of the world
from unjust nnd vexatious restric
tions and for every sort of Interna
tional co-operation that will serve to
cleanso tho life of tho world nnd
facllitato its common action in bene
ficent servlco of every kind. It fur
nished guarantees such as woro
never given or oven contemplated for
tno rair treatment of all who labor
at the dally tasks of tho world.
"It Is for this reason that I hnvo
spoken of It as a great charter for a
h now order of affairs. There Is ground
here for deep satisfaction, unlveral
roassuranco and confident hope."

Violate Armistice Terms by Destroy.
Ing Emblems- Seized In the
