We calculate the charge current in a metallic ferromagnet to first order in the time derivative of the magnetization direction. Irrespective of the microscopic details, the result can be expressed in terms of the conductivities of the majority and minority electrons and the non-adiabatic spin transfer torque parameter $\beta$. The general expression is evaluated for the specific case of a field-driven domain wall and for that case depends strongly on the ratio of $\beta$ and the Gilbert damping constant. These results may provide an experimental method to determine this ratio, which plays a crucial role for current-driven domain-wall motion.
