NEW PLYMOUTH CHURCH.

Meeting for Discussion of Ways and
 Means on Wednesday Evening.
 When the Plymouth church congre gation sold it's old church on College street in 1895 it built the present chap el only as a temporary structure. The church has been so prosperous and the congregation has grown so rapidly that the main church building is now need ed very much. At the close of Rev. Dr. McLane's sermon yesterday morn ing in which he urged that steps to- wards securing the church be taken at once, the congregation unanimously decided in favor of such action.
 Rev. Dr. McLane then called a spec ial meeting of the church for Wednes- day evening to discuss ways and means and to appoint committee to have charge of raising the money. The cost of the new edifice is to be in the neighborhood of $30000; $1000O is to cover the incidental expenses, the fur niture, the carpets and the cost of an organ. An invested fund of $10,000 is already laid aside toward this expense When the first move was made in 1892 $11,0 900 was raised with which the lot, corner Chapel street and Sherman ave- nue, was purchased. The ladies' fur niture committee in 1894 raised $2, 000; $5,000 more was raised toward the building, and the old College street church sold to the college for a music hall for $25,000 The chapel building cost $20,000, and the furniture $2,O00 more. The architect was William H. Allen. Last winter committee of five gentlemen was appointed to plan for the building of the new church and the present move is due to the comple- tion of their labors. The building com mittee consists of Edward Bryan, Charles A. Ferry, Andrew G. Smith, George T. Bradley and George A. Saun- ders.

Highest Price in Fifteen Years Paid in
 Wall Street Yesterday
 New York, Nov. 14.-A seat on the New York stock exchange was sold to- day at $2S,OOO-the highest price in fif- teen years. The advance in the price has been due to the increase in Wall street business and the generally pros porous condition of affairs in the tinan- cial district.
 The record price for seats is $S45Oo, made in 1881, and as there. is a decided demand for the seats, and there have been few deaths, it was predicted in Wall street to-day that this price may again be reached.
 The seats that have been sold in late years have been largely bought by young men, many of them rich mems sons starting in business.

naval vessels by the Government one OF the
members said after the meeting:
1T Is now altogether probable that we viii

AZ this time 10 say just how many SHIPS IN al
the Government will he able TO secure i has

nothing is likely to b. definitely accomplished IN
the way Of acquiring them until an examination
is made into their condition for which purpose a
naval officer has been dispa tched abroad we 90
not want a lot Of vessels that other hatlohs
contracted to he built and now find are not up

but | should not be surprised If we were apie
70 get half-dozen formidable ones at least The
$50 100000 appropriated for war preparations
will be expended in this country. except such as
may be used in the purchase Of ships and IN the
acquisition Of munitions Of war that are not OBJ
tsinable here.

you infer that England will openly advocate
our cause and extend us substantial help but
will give us her moral support.
II was said at the Cabinet meeting by Secre-
tary Long that the naval attache at London
Lieutenant Colwell had almost completed the
negotiations for the purchase Of the Amazonas
and the Barboso. The final notification that ms
offer has been accepted has not yet reache1 'he
Navy Department.
The negotiations for the purchase of the TWO
Japanese cruisers now building in this country
AT Philadelphia and San Francisco are on ana
the present indications are that no further Steps
will be taken toward acquiring these ships. Inc
japanese Government appears TO be even more
desirous Of securing them than the United
States. and. owing 10 the delicate character Of
the aspect Of affairs between Russia and japan
It is felt that the needs Of Japan are as urgent
as those Of this country.
