Why is interference pattern not detected when two coherent sources are far apart?

Statement I: Interference pattern is obtained on a screen due to two identical coherent sources of monochromatic light. The intensity at the central part of the screen becomes one -fourth if one of the sources is blocked. Statement II: The resultant intensity is the sum of the intensities due to two sources.
