FINANCE AND MARKETS
ASSOCIATED PRESS p1sPATCH1

NEW YORK, May 16.-The most di- rect influence brought to bear on the stock market today was from abroad. London reported selling there by Paris. which in turn was attributed to un- satisfactory financialconditions in Rus sia. American stocks were depressed sharply in London. Speculation here lifeless and at the opening the list fol- lowed the line of least resistance by easing off to about the level reached in the English market. At the lower range a better demand arose and the decline was quickly cancelled. The movement thereafter was narrow, and variable with a majority of slight los ses at the end.
 The bank statement did not come up to expectations. A large cash gain was predicted but the amount shown in the actual table was less than $3,000,000
 Trading bonds were quiet. The course of prices was irregular. Some strength appeared in Rock Island col laterals. Total sales of bonds repre- scented a par value of $910,000.

Final Standing

When Tillery beat Bovce in the final game of the Class A pocket billiard tournament at the St Elmo last night, he left five men tied for third place, much to the excitement of the fans and to the honor and the glory of Matchmaker and Han- dicapper Marcus A. Cation.
 Miller is in second place and Boyce, Avery, Wood. Brunst and Jayne are all even for third.
 Tillery beat Boyce with apparent ease. There was a good crowd pres ent, and the matter of fact way in which the leader cleaned up his last opponent astonished everybody.
 Boyce, who won last years tour ney was expected to make a whrl - wind finish. Had he beaten Tillery, the latter would have remained tied with Miller for first place. The score was 100 to 7S.
 Miller, second shot winner, played careful and consistent game all through the tournament.
 Play will be started to determine the winners of third and fourth place some time early next week. and as soon as the play off is out of the way, Cation will scheme up a new tournament.

CHANCE FOR CHURCHES
 TO HELP THEMSELVES

Through the kindness of Eugene Redewill, every church in Phoenix and Salt River valley may earn a small Sum of money on the David Bispham concert. which takes place at the Elk's theater on Tuesday May 26. In bring ing this artist to Phoenix, MT. Redewill has guaranteed large sum of money. and to make certain of securing the amount he has written each church letter wherein he donates all of his share, or percentage, on each ticket sold to their members on Monday. May .18
 All that is necessary for the churches to do is to make the announcement at the Sunday services that 20 per cent of all tickets sold on Monday will be paid into the treasury of each church on the day following Of course a large number of each congregation will attend the concert, and the only stipu- lation to earn the 20 per cent for their church will be to secure their tickets on Monday the 18th. The purchasers will give their name and state which church to give the money to when get ting tickets

Hear ye! Hear ye, Hear ye. and obey or forever hold your peace.
 This is the word of Illustrious Potentate Shirley Christy, who not only asks all members of the Daugh- ters of Isis, but all wives, mothers. daughters and sisters of Shriners to a royal banquet at Masonic hall. Wednesday evening. The gala fete is but one of the many courtesieS Ilanned for the evening. The white fez of the order will be presented with due ceremony to those who care to become daughters, and there will be no initiation fees or annual dues to be considered.
 It will mean something to be con- nected with the Shrine! It will mean a bit more this year than ever before, for in addition to the worth of the society there is the Shrine Sokum Sirkus to be taken into ac- county.
 Wearers of the white feZ will fig ure quite as prominently in the big event as those who wear the red. While they have been barred from the circus proper and will not loop the loop or appear as Dare Devil Dicks" they will have their parts to play. which is the popular one of selling peanuts. popcorn and candy. The vendors of sweets will wander through the audience with their wares and add to the gayety of the occasion

 It was explained to them that any violation of the peace and dignity of the city was disorderly conduct. Then they admitted they were prob ably guilty. They said that had they have been married long ago. They said they rather dreaded the Ameri- can ceremony and so had postponed the ordeal
