THE U.S.A. WHEAT SUPPLIES.

United Press Association. (Received 8 0 a.m.) London, February 22. The Washington Government claims that an embargo on the export of wheat is unnecessary, as the country can safely export a million bushels daily until July.

Times and Sydney Sun Service, London, February 21.

Count Reventlow writes to the Tages Zeitung that Germans at present do not admit friendly relations with America, and that public opinion is filled with the utmost bitterness against the United States, whose ships will not be protected by tbe Stars and Stripes unless convoyed by American warships. The Times’ Washington correspondent says the German reply to the American Note has not much he proved things. The convoy suggestion is felt to be out of the question owing to tbe mines Germany threatens to lay as her next step. It is possible that advantage will be taken of ilie offer in the German Note for a continuation of the conversations, though little is expected to come at them. Tt is felt that tbe situation must be solved by events, and no amount of words will be able to avert the greatest trouble should American vessels suffer.
