Department of State,
Washington, September 15, 1916.

Your letter September 13. Mr. Egan has telegraphed me a translation of the form of a note which the Danish Government is willing to exchange for a note from this Government in the form which I enclosed in my letter of September 11 to you. I have telegraphed Mr. Egan to ask the Foreign Minister to telegraph to you the Danish text of the Danish note. If you will notify me of its receipt by you we can proceed to an exchange of notes.
