Disorder Feared Today.

VERSAILLES, June ASSOCIATED
Press).-The treaty of peace with Hun
gary was signed in the Grand Trianon
palace here at 4.25 clock this after
noon. The Hungarian treaty was the
first of the treaties framed by the peace
conference to be signed ahead of time.
Premier Millerand of France was one
of the earliest arrivals at the palace,
being followed shortly afterward by
Hugh C. Wallace, the American am
bassador.
The peace terms signed by the rep
| resentatives of Hungary today have
aroused much opposition throughout
| that country. Demands were voiced in
every section that the government re-
| fuse to sign the document, which Count
Albert Apponyi, who recently resigned
as head of the Hungarian peace dele
| cation, declared to be "a rag of in
| iquity.' Another of the bitter advo.
Gates of refusal to sign was the for.
mer premier. In violent denuncia-
ton of the treaty last week in the ma.
tional assembly he declared "the sun
of the allies is setting,' and he re
ferred to the successful defiance of the
allied powers by the Russian Boshe
Wiki and the Turks.
Budapest dispatches have reported
the public in an excited state of mind
Some disorders occurred Thursday

Will Be Lodged with Public
Service Com
mission
MAINS SAID TO
BE TOO SMALL
Householders Unable to Secure Sufii-
cient Quantity at Noon Street
Railroad Handicapped by Inability
to Obtain Supplies.


Because of what many consider unsat-
isfactory service in the supplying of gas
by the Twin State Gas & Electric Co.,
petition has been in circulation for sigma
lures to a complaint to the public ser
vice commission, but the complaint has
not yet been presented.
The commission has received large
number of individual complaints, both
as to the matter of the gas supply and
the street railroad service, but they are
not in form SO that legal action can be
taken upon them.
When legal petition is presented the
commission will act on it by setting a
date for hearing and giving the parties
due notice
As is well known the greatest difficulty
with the gas supply is the inability of
hOuseholders to secure a sufficient guam
tity in the preparation of the midday
meal. The same difficulty was expe-
rienced year ago, and at that time the
difficulty was partly overcome by the in
stallation of booster to force an addi-
tional supply of gas through the mains
at the time of the greatest need.
The use of gas has continued to in
crease, however, so that now even the
booster cannot supply the need at noon,
the mains being too small, it is under
stood, to convey sufficient quantity,
no matter how much there is on hand
| at the manufacturing plant.
So far as the street railroad service ia
concerned, the, reason why only one car
is running is that it is impossible to get
needed parts to repair the disabled cars.
Some of the parts have been ordered for
months, but the manufacturers every
where are buried with orders. Just as
soon as the supplies are received addi-
tional service will be furnished.

rendered, says Paris newspaper. He
