UNITED STATES AND THE BLOCKADE.
LONDON, Thursday
The text of America's Identical Note to Britain and Germany has been published. It confirms the suggestions previously referred to. America explains that she has taken the liberty to make suggestions as a sincere friend, with the "hope of serving tho interests of humanity.
Sir Edward Grey (British Secretary of Stato for Foreign Affairs), in his reply, states that as Germany's answer to the Note- does not indicate a willingness to abandon submarine attacks on merchantmen, or the use of mines on tho high seas, it appears unnecessary for Britain to make any further reply than to take note of Germany's answer. Sir Edward Grey sympathises -with America's desire to see the war conducted according to the rules of international law and the dictates of humanity. Britain has thus conducted tho war, but on the German side it has been different.
