DIR. BROWN CALLED.
Passionate at Chicago for the Much
Advertised Minister

CHICAGO, April 2S.-Rev. c. O.
Brown, whose trouble in his church at
San Francisco resulted in his leaving
the coast and returning to the East,
has received and accepted call to the
Green Street Congregational church,
Englewood. Though not as prosperous
numerically, perhaps, as the church
and congregation which Rev. Mr..
Brown has just left, the Green street
church is still strong and comparative
ly wealthy. The salary attached to
the call is 1,200, which is to be raised
ccnditionally. Soon after Rev. Mr..
Burlington, the last pastor Of the
church, resigned, the trustees were in
structed to look out for another pastor
and the matter was left to a committee.
That committee heard DR.. Brown and
finally persuaded him to deliver a SER
mon at the church. He was well liked.
and the trouble in San Francisco being
explained in q satisfactory manner, an
invitation was extended to Rev. Mr..
Brown and accepted.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.

MINNEAPOLIS, April 2S-There is little
everything are unchanged, with the exception
or roll and print, which is lower. The call
from retailers for creamery extras and frsts
is sufhcient to give tone to the market and
prevent prices from declining, although cur
rent receipts are increasing. Seconds and
thirds are scarce and prices steady. Dairy
extras are firm at quotations, and the ten
dency is toward higher prices, which are at
present prevented by rather free receipts.
Seconds are In free supply and easy. The
only outlet is as packing stock. Roll and print
is dull and lower. Ladies Of fine quality are
steady, but packing stock is quiet. Eggs are
Ac lower. This is the result of heavy receipts.
Although buying by jobbers, retailers and
cold storage people large, it was not
su1hcient to prevent Il being taken off the
price Live poultry is easier. Chickens are
coming in more freely, and hens and young
ROSTERS declined kc Turkeys are in fair re-
quest, and geese and ducks are moving in a
fair way. Veal Is strong and higher. The
market is well cleaned up and in good condi-
ton to sell on. Mutton and lamb are quiet
dressed logs are in moderate demand.

GOLD MOVEMENT ON.

NEW YORK. April 2S.-one million FIVE
hundred thousand dollars of gold coin has
been engaged for export tomorrow. OF the
total, $1,000,000 was withdrawn by Lazard
Freres and $50O,000 by Kidder, Peabody &
Co.. of Boston. Both shipments go by the
Normannia tomorrow. 1t is understood that
the Boston house sends its gold to Germany.
Both Withdrawals were made in regular form,
by presentation of treasury notes at the sub
treasury. At the banking house Of Lazard
Freres it was stated to a representative of
the Associated Press that the shipment was
made in the regular order Of business to
liquidate Indebtedness and was not pur-
chase of gold on al order for Europe, as was
said Of the shipment of 81 COO 600 ordered Sat
urday. LaZard Freres' representative said
further, that it was not unlikely that further
shipments of the same character would be
made by them. These shipments are the re-
suit OF the dissolution of the tacit agreement
among foreign bankers not to ship gold until
sterling exchange should rise to the basis Of
&.SS% for demand sterling, actual rates. De-
mand sterling is sold today at $4.S7$4 as re-
suit OF the dissolution of the agreement. The
total shipments SO far announced this week
amount to $2.477,0 600, and it is now generally
felt that this is the Inauguration of the regu-
lar gold export movement which is usual at
this time of the year

Gables came IL this morning steady, but
I'D lower. This was rather better than antici-
pated, and in consequence markets on this
side opened from Il to 12c stronger than the
close last night. The opening, however, was
the high point for the day, values were held
steady and within small range until an
hour of the close, when large quantities Of
long wheat were thrown overheard and a
break of cents took place in very few
minutes, the close being at the low point for
the day. Outside of the war, which is gen
orally considered over, the news of the day
was bullish. Ten thousand bushels were re-
ported taken for export. and exporters re-
ported that the price was now on shipping
basis Total clearances, wheat and -four four
ports were quite liberal 24S, 900 bu and Brad
streets worlds visible decreased 1858, 900.
July wheat around zoe in Chicago and Min
neapolis, while it may not be very cheap, is
certainly worth that price, and there will
be no money lost in purchasing at that figure
The market will offer splendid opportunities
for scalping, and advise purchasers on
every coed break, with sales on a rally which
is sure to follow.
