fore it. setting forth the action of the ative to the resignation Of the Rev. Andrew Burns Chalmers from the pos torate of the Grand avenue Congrega- tiona1 church in New Haven, have been deemed ample and satisfactory, and
 Whereas, We have all confidence in the high Christian character and mo- tives of both pastor and church and be- lieve that Mr. Chalmers is called of God to a new field of labor,
 Therefore we unanimously agree that the said pastoral relations should be dissolved. In declaring this judgment we wish to renew expressions previous ly made of our respect and esteem for MT. Chalmers as a man and a Christian minister. our admiration for his distin- guished ability and our appreciation of the wisdom and conspicuous success with which he has prosecuted his work in this city
 We regret his departure, but we as- sure him os our continued confidence and affection and pledge him our pray CTS for his ever increasing prosperity, happiness and usefulness in the work to which he goes.
 We feel that his past is a sufficient guarantee of the future and we predict for him a brilliant career in his larger field.
 We deeply syn1pathize with the Grand avenue Congregational church and so- ciety in the loss they are sustaining and fervently pray the Great Head of the church so to guide them in their search and choice that they may soon find a strong and efficient leader for this important work.
 For the council Rev. Watson L. Phil lips, D. D.. Rev. Frank Countryman and Deacon Franklin S. Bradley, com mittee.

NEW HAVEN BRAKEMAN
May be Arrested for Manslaughter-H

May be Arrested for Manslaughter-He
 is Missing.
 Bridgeport, May 5.--Unless there is a decided change in the sentiment of the authorities, a warrant will be issued charging Dennis Dowd, of New Haven, with manslaughter. He was the rear brakeman on the freight train which collided with the passenger train at South Norwalk on Saturday evening, the accident resulting in the death of two passengers and serious injury to number of others, including two from this city.
 Dowd was ordered, together with sev- eral other trainmen, to appear before Coroner Doten in this city to-day at a hearing. While the others came and testified, Dowd remained away and all efforts on the part of Judge Doten to locate him proved unavailing.
 After a preliminary hearing held yes- terday the coroner directed Suverinten- dent Shepard to order Dowd and En- gineer Somers to be present at his office this morning.
 The engineer obeyed, but Dowd failed to make his appearance. The coroner communicated with the New Haven offices of the Consolidated road, but he was unable to learn anything definite concerning the missing brakeman, and the opinion is expressed that he has disappeared.
 Should Judge Doten me unable to hear from him further he will render finding to the effect that Dowd was responsible for the accident ill giving a signal to the engineer showing a. clear track and thus causing the acci- dent.
 Engineer Somers asserts that Dowd gave the signal, and his testimony is corroborated by a number of other trainmen.
