ORDER OF PROCEDURE
 IN SIGNING PEACE DOCUMENT

Versailles. Wednesday, June 25.- The session of the peace conference for the signing of the peace treaty with Germany probably will require more time than had been anticipated because of the necessity of affixing signatures to four different documents.
 Besides the main peace treaty as delivered to Germany. the representa- tives of the allied powers and Ger many must sign also the protocol or annex covering the points raised by Germany after the delivery of the original text, the Rhine convention and the Polish treaty providing for the rights of minorities.
 The order of precedence in signing the documents appears now to be es- tablished as follows: Premier Clem- enceau first, as president of the peace conference; then President Wilson, and next Premier Lloyd George. The copies of the treaty and other doc uments' will be carried to them by Paul Dutasta. secretary general of the peace conference, and they will sign at their seats. The documents then will be taken to a table where oth- CT delegates will go, in their turn: to

TORN FROM FATHER NEPTUNE
British Government Has Saved Ships
and cargoes Worth Many Nil.
lions Of Dollars.

The British admiralty's salvage
section has saved more than 100
ships, valued at much more than
sl00,000,000, according to the New
York Suns London correspondent.
Cargoes worth another $50,000,000
have been saved along with the ships.
Many OF the torpedoed cargoes were
perishable, so were lost when the
ships went down.
Altogether more than $150,O00,-
900 has been saved to Britain by her
salvage units. 1t is impossible to
compute the value of the saved ships
as food carriers returned to the seas.
Compressed air, standard patches
and the submersible electric pump
are the principal mechanical means
by which Britain's salvage record
has been achieved. OF the three, the
submersible pump is the newest. 1t
is the invention of Scottish cleo
trical engineer, who has made a
pumping device in which electricity
works as well below water as above.
1t carries its own motor, so it is
adapted for use even after the tor
pedo has crippled the ships dynamo.
II was one If these numns which
succeeded in saving a naval vessel
after the battle of Jutland. No or
binary pump would have accom-
plished the feat.
These pumps are powerful enough
and big enough to throw out water

several Of them largely minimized
their chances of being sunk.
