NEUTRAL NATIONS IN SYMPATHY WITH J. $.
 IN BRITISH DEMANDS
No r formal Agreements
 Reached As Yet But Many European Nations Stand By Nation-Note Opened Today

WASHINGTON, Jan. g.-While no formal arrangements have yet been made for the common action by all neutrals in respect to contraband and shipping during the maritime war. it today became known that the United States has received sympathetic sup port of practically all neutral nations in negotiations with Great Britain Bryan ordered copies Of the British preliminary reply to the American note delivered to representatives of all neutral countries.
 When the American note was sent to Great Britain there were many for nal requests for copies and it is con sidered significant that the British note is voluntarily sent them. The days study of the British communi- cation failed to develop any comment from administration officials. They feel that people will have am oppor- tunity to judge for themselves in an other day or two whether or not Great Britain is meeting the request Of the United States for early inn proyement in the treatment of Ameri- can commerce.
 Tie text of the British note will be made public simultaneously in both Washington and London tomorrow afternoon. It is known however. that the Bri[sh note does not finally dis pose of the questions raised but is in the nature of preliminary argument Just how far long drawn out cor respondence is foreshadowed, officials here refused to say
 In authoritative quarters it is stated however that another note perhaps more vigorous will be sent to Great Britain should the safeguards which England herself has advised for American commerce be disregarded by the British fleet as the American government claims has occurred heretofore
