When Walker Refuses to Face Their Opposition
 Agree on O'Brien


 NEW YORK, Oct. 7.-Fol- lowing the dramatic with drawal of f o r m CT M ayOr James J. Walker via radio from mid ocean the Demo- cratic City Convention last night unanimously nOminat- ed Surrogate John P. O'Brien for Mayor.
 After the nomination of Judge O'Brien for Mayor and the announcement that he is satisfactory to Acting Mayor Joseph V. Mckee, the Com mittee of One Thousand" that purp0sed to launch an inde- pendent Democratic and Re- publican fusion candidate for Mayor decided to take no action.
 The radiogram from former May or Jimmie Walker from the Eur opa in mid-Atlantic which caused the withdrawal of his name from the Mayora1ity race said:
 T request my name be withheld from consideration. This decision is based solely upon my willingness to put the interests of the party above my personal desires"
 Acting Mayor McKee's name was not presented to the convention at all.
 Agreement on O'Brien Unanimous
 The leaders of all five Boroughs of New York agreed to the nom- ination of Surrogate O'Brien for Mayor. It was reached after Jim- mic Walker had been vigorously denounced and formidable opposi- tion to him under the leadership of Al Smith and Gov. Roosevelt had been disclosed. After re- nouncing Walker the exchange of radiograms to the Europa was dis closed, and 1t was made evident that in face of the opposition of former Gov. Smith and Gov Roose- welt, Leader John F. Curry of Tammany and Leader John H. Mo- Cooey of Brooklyn had offered to nominate Walker if he desired that they do so. Walker replied to Curry and McCooey that T know the people share your confidence in me because my g years of public life does not record single in- stance of disloyalty to my consti- tuents." Then followed the Walker request that his name be with- held from consideration in the in- terest of the Democratic Party. When Walker made it plain that he did not want to run for Mayor against the opposition of Smith and Roosevelt, the five Borough leaders quickly and unanimously agreed upon Judge OBrien to fill out the remainder of Walkers term. ending December 31, 1883.
 Walker Interested in Senate
 From steamship Europa sources close to Jimmie Walker, who is re- turning to New York from Europe, said they believed that Walker is more interested in campaign in the future for the United States Senate than in running again for Mayor of New York
 The Democratic City Convention last night was made necessary by the decision of the New York State Court of Appeals in Albany which held that Mayor of New York City must be elected this Fall.

YOUNG WOMAN
 HERE WHO FIXED
 FROM NEW YORK
Thea Francis Was Lost Five Days on Old
 Telegraph Trail

Having walked from New York to Alaska, Miss Thea Francis, ath. letic young woman with an engag. ing personality, arrived in Junea, yesterday. Tn the course of he long journey from New York City her starting point, to Skagway her place of entry into the Terri tory, she took two rides, both il boats, one being across the Strik inc River near Telegraph Creek B. O., and the other across tht Tagish River near Carcross, Y T.,
 On her trip, of approximately 5000 miles she carried no weapon, either to protect herself or to hunt game, inasmuch as she anticipat- ed no moleStations and opposes the killing of any creature.
 Lost For Five Days
 Her most perilous adventure was getting lost between Hazelton and Telegraph Creek and remaining five days and nights on a bar of the Bell-Irving River, until found by inemen of the Dominion Tele- graph System.
 Miss Francis came from Skag- way to Juneau in powerboat. She will remain here indefinitely She is a guest at the home of Judge E. B. LeFevre, with whom she be- came acquainted in California when he visited there several months ago.
 Devotce of Physical Culture
 A devotee of physical culture, Miss Francis left New York City April l, l930. She travelled over the Lincoln and Victory highways by way of the states of New Jer- sey Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Utah and Nevada to San Fran cisco, the transcontinental trip pass ing over four mountain ranges, cov- ering distance of $500 miles and requiring seven months time. She remained year and eleven months in California.
 Bearing letter from Gov. James J. Rolph of California to Gov. George A. Parks of Alaska, she left California March 19, this year. She continued without protracted sojourns at any places to this city.
 Log of Journey
 From California she travelled the coast route through Oregon, Wash ington and part of British Colum- bia to Vancouver, distance of 1 ,029 miles. Her itinerary from Vancouver was to Hazelton 826 miles; to Telegraph Creek, 364 1; to Atlin, 225; to Tagish, ST; to Carcross, 32; to Skagway, STE.
 T experienced all kinds of wealth CT and traversed all kinds of roads and trails Miss Francis said. T perspired from heat, shivered from cold and was drenched with rain. In the States, for the most part, I walked on good, automobile roads and on fine bridges that spanned the rivers. After leaving Hazelton, the end of highway fa- cilities, I encountered the diff outlines incident to sparsely set tied and infrequently traversed country.
 Many Kinds of Locomotion
 Sometimes crawled on my hands and knees, struggled through mud knee-deep, waded, waist high in icy streams and crossed over deep, swift and comparatively wide streams on long, slender, swaying
