Washington, D. c.. Jan. 9.-Secre-
tary Bryan announced the receipt of a
note from Great Britain replying to
the American communication of Dec.
26 respecting American commerce.
The note, about the same length as
the American, will be made public
Sunday. 1t is learned the British
communication is inconclusive in
many respects and will lead to fur
Their exchange of notes.
Although many concessions to neu.
trail commerce were made by England
through embargoes on repatriation re-
Gently completed with Italy and Hol-
land, some points were raised in the
American note, such as proof at the
time of the detention of the ships and
the length of time required for exam
nation, will necessitate further ar
gument between the state department
and the British foreign office before a
definite understanding is reached.
The British note, preliminary in a
sense, is confined to a general state
ment of the situation answering the
American document and will be fol-
lowed by a detailed statement.
