u. s. NOTE ON BLACKLIST
WARNS GREAT BRITAIN
Calls Attention to Many "Undesired
and Undesirable Results" That
May Follow.

Washington, July 31.-Great Brit
ain is warned in the American note
of protest against the blacklist made
public by the state department OF the
many serious consequences to neu-
trail right and neutral relations which
such an act must necessarily involve"
Already in the hands of the British
foreign office, the note says lin the
gravest terms" that it is "manlfestly
out of the question that the govern
ment of the United States should ac-
uuiesce in such methods" and that
the United States regards the black
list as inevitably and essentially in
consistent with the rights of all their
citizens of all the nations not IN
volved in the war;
1t reminds the British government
that citizens of the United States are
entirely within their rights In at,
tempting to trade with the people or
the governments of any of the nations
now at war, subject only TO well-de
fined international practices and un
derstandings which the government OF
the United States deems the govern
ment of Great Britain 10 have toe
lightly and too frequently disregard
ed" The American note is even more
positive in it's terms than official:
have intimated.

POZIERES WON BY BRITISH
Town, British War Office Reports
no Further Fighting.

London, July 27.-FollOwing official
announcement both from London and
Berlin of the capture of the important
village of Pozieres, the British war
office reported in its statement that
there was no further fighting Of any
consequence. This is taken to mean
that the Germans either have been un-
able TO get organized for counter-at-
tack or do not contemplate any.
The capture Of POziereS came after
four days of terrible fighting from
house to house in the little village.
There is scarcely a house in the viii
lage in which death has not been dealt
or received The capture of the posi-
ton was entirely the work of the Aus
tralians 1t was their first big effort
on the western front.
The possession gives the British
troops domination of the highest point
overlooking the plateau on which the
German lines extend to the eastward
