DISCOUNT TO DEALERS W.RHartin & Bro. I 1815 Hain St.. Columbia S.G. , Arrangements for Signing the Peace Treaty in Shape Now in Versailles. Versailles, June 22, (By The As sociated Press.)-Arrangements al ready have begun to take shape at Versailles for the signing of the peace treaty. Orders have been given to have everything in readinss Tues day, although the ceremony accord ing to the Havas agency, is not like ly to occur before Thursday at the earliest. The famous gallery of mirrors has received its final furnishings. The carpets have been laid and the orna mental tabli; with its 18th century gilt and bronze decorations has been placed in position on the dias where the plenipotentiaries will be seated. There will be room for four hun dred invited persons at the historic sessoin. They will be given places in the left wing of the hall of mirrors, while the right will be occupied by a bout the same number of press rep resentatives. Sixty .seats have been allotted to the French press. The program of arrangements, as far as they have been settled, were submitted to Premier Clemenceau to day. The court of honor has been clear ed of captured guns. Three regiments of infantry and five of cavalry will be on duty at the time of the signing of the treaty. Republican guards in jala uniforms will render the honors. They will be stationed on the grand stair case by which the plenipoten tiaries enter the hall. Accolading to the Havas agency diplomatic relations with Germany will not be resumed immediately on the signing of the treaty, but only af ter its ratification. This also applies ;o the admission of German subjects into France. ' Fronting M. Clemenceau's presi dential chair will be placed a small table on which the diplomatic instru ments will be laid. It will be to this :able that each representative is call ed in? aphabetical order to sign his name to the treaty and affix to it his rovernment seal. As there are 100 ielegates, the ceremony is expected to take at least ninety minutes. It is yet uncertain whether M. Clemenceau will make a speech. It is ?onsidered as not unlikely that the hermans will raise a last protest at the moment of signing. College Students' Entertain ment.
