Delegates From Twenty
Seven Countries at His
tOric Peace Event.
TERMS HANDED TO
GERMANY'S ENJOYS
Peace Treaty Delivered on Anniver-
sary Of Sinking Of Lusitania-
Orlando Returns to Paris in Time to
Participate in important Formally
Nom Combatant Nations Permitted
to Have Delegates Present.
rHy the Associated Press.l


Germany today received the
terms of peace from the nations
arrayed against her in the world
war. This event. falling on the 4th
anniversary of the sinking of the
Lusitania, marks one of the his
toric dates in the giant conflict.
1t came III days after the last
shot of the war was fired on Nov.
IL. 1918.
The German delegates, when
they entered the dining room OF
the Hotel Trianen at Versailles
this afternoon, found present the
representatives of twenty-seven
nations.
When plans for the presenta-
tion Of the treaty were decided
upon some time ago, it was de-
termined that only thirteen na-
tions would have delegates pres
ent, it being held that only those
nations which had taken an eff
cient part In the fighting should
witness the ceremony. 1t was de-
cided yesterday. however that en-
voys OF China, Siam, Cuba, Guate-
slnala, Nicaragua. Haiti. Panama,
= Siberia and Honduras should also
be admitted.
The complete representation of
the allied powers was assured
this morning by the arrival In
Paris from Rome of Premier Or
lando. and Foreign Minister
Sonnino, of Italy.
At a secret plenary session held
at the French foreign office yes
terday. afternoon a summary CT
the treaty was read. There were
a few objections. Portugal taking
exceptions to some features OF the
treaty, and with China, Italy and
France making reservations when
the reading of the summary had
been completed.
1t is not believed, however. that
the objections to certain phases OF
the treaty will result in the re-
fusal of these nations to sign the
document, nor will their reserva-
tions affect the procedure decided
upon in laying the treaty before
the German plenipotentiaries.
One Of the most interesting fea-
lures of the conversation was
added to 1t yesterday when
clause arraigning forher Emperor
William for "a supreme offense
against international morality and
the sanctity Of treaties" was at
tached to the treaty, together with
a provision for his trial by
tribunal composed Of representa-
tives Of the United States. Great
Britain, France, Italy and Japan.
Steps have been taken to meet
any refusal on the part OF Ger
many to sign the treaty. Com
pIete economic isolation is one OF
the principal weapons to be used
by the allies and associated gov
crnments.

4 Versailles, May 7.-Germany today
was told the terms upon which the al
lied and associated powersrw make
peace with her.
These terms were contained In a
treaty some $4,000 words in length,
which was handed to the Geruiaii
plenipotentiaries at a memorable as
semblage here, attended by the dele
gates OF the twenty-seven nations
which are parties to the peace pact.
This r.otable document, on which the
leading statesmen Of the various ma
tions, together with q swarm OF ex-
perts from the principal countries in
volved have been working since the
convening Of the peace conference on
Jan. IS, is introduced by an extensive
preamble. embodying the assertion OF
authority upon which the treaty is
based.
Map Of Europe Changed.
Immediately following is the 1rst
chapter, the covenant Of the league Of
nations. the text Of which already has
been printed. OF the fourteen prin-
cipal sections, one contains stipulations
with regard to frontiers which ma
terially change the map Of Eurape.
Military, naval and air terms arc dealt
with in another section, while still an
other is devoted to the subject OF repa-
rations.
Political stipulations for Europe, on
the one hand. and outside Of it on the
other, are dealt with In separate di-
5,.isionz of fl1e documopt
The treaty, 1t is noted. has to do with
Germany alone, except insofar as 1t Is
required that she accept agreements
made by the allies with the other CEN
trail powers.

In the discussion Of peace terms
by Germany thru both her official
and unofficial spokesn,en she has
invariably drawn a distinction be-
tween reparation and indemnity,
constituting the latter in effect as
punitive damages.
II seems probable, therefore, that
the refusal to pay any "indemnity'
would mean in effect that she
would decline to pay what she re.
aarded as such damages.
