that quarter and as the most important
news of the day was from the spring
wheat country, the trade was not able
to follow the weather and crop in
fluences readily. Liverpool was sur
prisingly strong at the opening. Lat
er all the continental markets came
higher. Broomhall reported the
strength at Liverpool due to smaller
Russian shipments and let up in
Argentine supplies. The Minneapolis
curb was strong early and that mar
ket had rather sensational upturn
of three cents or more later with
about two cents held at the close
New York reported better export bids

MccREA HOLDING OFF
WANTS A SPECIAL INVITATION
FROM ROOSEVELT.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March 14-Penn-
sylvania railroad officers and directors are
nettled ever what Is termed J. Pierpont
Morgan's 'impolitic and undiplomatic pro-
eedure'' in taking it upon himself to pro-
pose to the President that the heads OF
four great railroad systems shall go to the
White House to give their views on iail-
road capitalization, and as to what they
think would tend to restore public conf
dence in corporation securities.
Without a direct invitation. 1t is stated
by Pennsylvania officials, James Mcf.rea,
president Of the Pennsylvania railroad. will
not go to the White House. The whole
matter was threshed out at q conference
Of officers and directors OF the company
yesterday. While all concerned agree that
the situation is rather delicate, still the
feeling Is that it Is not Of Penncy.vania
railroad making, and that therefore the
management Of that company should steer
clear Of further possible compile ,tions.
At the same time Mr.. McCrea Is anxious
tc avoid any seeming discourtesy to FRESH
dent Roosevelt. Should he extend to Pres
ident Mc<,rea an invitation to q col ercnce
it will. OF course, be accepted at opce. In
such event II Is probable that the hc1d OF
the Pennsylvania railroad will go to WASH
ington to listen to what the President may
say, but not to advance any ideas OF to
urge any line Of action. Upon this the
thought Is that the railroads have not
esked to be neard, but are. of course, redy
to give respectful attention to any IDEAS
which President Roosevelt may care to
exploit
