FINANCES AND MARKETS

4 NEW YORK, March 16.-Half a dozen stocks including Reading, Bald win Locomotive. Sinclair Oil, United States Steel and Canadian Pacific made up the bulk of today's moderate and irregular dealings.
 The movement was exceedingly mixed, Reading advancing points to SAYS, new maximum for the year, while Canadian Pacific made a further extreme decline of 3l2. Sales amounted to 1S5,000 shares.
 The light market operations of the week probably accounted for the ac- tual contraction of almost sS2 ,000, ,O00 in clearing house loans, but half of the previous weeks gain in reserve was lost, that item showing a decrease of about $2l,O00,000, leaving the total ex- cess at slightly more than S34,O00,O 900.
 The bond market was featureless or nominal dealings. Total sales par value aggregated SPOTS, 900.
 United States bonds, old issues. were unchanged on call during the week eX- cept for a decline of is of 1 per cen in coupon and registered 2s.

GRAIN

Chicago, March 16.-Grain prices collapsed suddenly today under a bur den of annual spring liquidation which chanced to catch the market bare of support After extreme breaks of five to. 5A cents, however. rallies ensued. Corn closed unsettled, 7s to 2Ac net lower. with March $1.26B and May sl.235s. Oats finished 35s to As @4H c down and pork off '22 to 60c. Buyers were at no time numerous enough to hold the market in check until five cents a bushel set back tempted pur- chasing on the part of heavy interests that previously had withdrawn as bid- ders. Total disappearance of wintry weather appeared to be the chief ele. ment of bearish sentiment.
 Oats were swayed largerly by tn, same influences which affected corn.
 Provisions dropped owing to heav, warehouse stocks here and the acut, weakness of grain.
 Close:
 Corn: March s1.2S%; May s1.235s.
 Oats: March S45sc; S2c. Pork: May $47.65.
 Lard: May s25.62; July s25.7z

KARLE WILL SING
 HERE ON MARCH 25

Miss Clara Hazard received a wire last night announcing the coming of Theodore Karle on Monday evening, March 25. His concert will be the fourth number on the Phoenix Phil harmonic course. The following article about MT. Karle is taken from one of the New York papers: Aside from his attractive and manly ways, (so seldom found in a tenor,) Karle's claim to pro- nounced recognition is a voice of sing ular sweetness infused With warmth a rare command of the singing art and a freshness and zest in delivery that is inspiring and irresistible. He is with out question the tenor find of the day. He is big, energetic, robust and with an inspirational thrill in its quality and control that seems endless"

PARROTS KILL SHEEP

Not long ago no little consternation was created by the escape at San Fran cisco of two keas, or sheep killing par rots, which were being shipped from Australia to the Smithsonian institu- tion, at Washington. The birds liber- ated themselves by splintering the slats Of their wooden crates with their powerful peaks. The federal authorities offered a reward of S1OO for each bird taken dead or alive. This species of parrot has made itself an enemy ,f man in both Australia and New Zeal and by staying sheep for the sake ot eating parts of the flesh, of which it is very fond, and there bounties are pail for killing the birds.
