Acting Secretary of State Adee encloses a copy of a dispatch from Ambassador Whitelaw Reid on the subject of fishery rights in Newfoundland. The note from the Foreign Office states that the divergence of views between the American and British governments makes an immediate settlement impossible. The British government, however, is prepared to work on an arrangement allowing conflicting parties to exist peacefully and will submit relevant proposals in the near future.
