These men have threatened to strike unless President Wilson brings about a conference between the officials of the United States Steel Corporation nud their representatives. Ou Monday bankers and brokers were woudcring just what was tbe answer which the President made to this request, and as Judge I'.lbert II. Cary, the chairman of the corporation, had deuird, np to Monday night, that lie had received any communication from the President on the subject, spec ubition Ihcu turned on what Judge (,,nv would do under the cir c umslanccs. There vvas ,i small minority iu the financial district who believed ho would send a icpresentative to find the specitic grievances of which they tomplained with a bill of particulars, instead of dealing in generalities or with old complaints which have long ago readied the stRtiite of limita tions and which tnloucer exist. lirokers are advising their clients to hold on lo their steel slocks. Thev claim that even if there is a sleel strike it will soon be over. Oo broker said that a rrceuL canvass of the lug siec plants of the United States Steel Corporation in the Pittshnigh district, carried out bv the coiporation's officials, showed only 10 per icnl of the workers as organ ized, Itecoul attempt-, it is said, to inalenallv imirase the percentage had failed. .

"What is influencing this, market ?" was a question frequently aiked in brokers' offices ami on the Street yesterday. There were all torts and conditions of iimwris, but perhaps the one given bv a perpetually op Uniiatic bioker was nearest to being the correct one. "Tor some reason," he sahl. "every one is feeling good," which was perhaps more of a re fleciion of his own sentiments than anj thing else. Another said the increase iu the unfilled tonnage in the United Statei Steel Corporation's report, which was announced vestirday a day ahead cjf time, bad a good deal to do with 'fbe strength of the slock market. Then some one said the fact that the affiliated steel workers' repre sentatives held an executive session in Washington aud concluded o give out no report was looked upon favorabl.v. broker who is usually well posted said it would necer do at this critical period, with so many issutr, menacing the stock market , to permit the bear.? to get on Jop before a holiday in tho middle of "i busy week, so he com bided the market was being strongly supported fmru the inside. And it mm be that all of these influence'', bc-idc some more, were l work lo sustain prices.
