The building was destroyed along with all of tho goods of the plain tiff.
 The suit charged the defendants agents with negligence in not hav- ing spark arrestor on the chimney and also because the fire in the boiler was started on an exceedingly windy day and in close proximity to the plaintiffs valuables.
 Attorney Michael V. Hlansfield represented the plaintiff. Attorney s. Elsner and Attorney II. L. Nair of Hartford represented the defend- ant.

his improved health, his desire to be 70 New yorker--iust like one of the seven and Q half millions" But he was discreetly silent on subs jects such as his resignation from the Hnayorship and his trip to Eu- rope during the seabury investisa- ton.
 While there were many notablea among the greeters at quarantine, the welcoming committee was con- spicuous mostly for the absence of certain former Walker associates and intinates.
 Notables Not There
 Among those not present were John 2. Curry, hea0 of Tammany Hall when Walker was one of It's satellites, Grover A. Whalen, ofiiclal New York city greeter under Walk CT and once Walkers police com missioner, A. c. Blumenthal, on in- tlmate of many years, Mrs. Janet Walker, his divorced wife, and Rus- sell T. Sherwood, his financial agent.
 A remarkable unprecedented and unseasonal rush of pressing busi- ness kept most of them away.
 Sherwood might have wished to greet the former mayor but he re- mainod in New Jersey where he was safe from New York subpoena serv- CTS who want him for his failure to appear when wanted for ques- tioning in the Seabury inquiry.
 To the scores of well-wishers and to New Workers generally, Walker made Q formal statement at quar. antine. Tn 1t he reiterated his inten- ton to keep away fro inpolitics.
 There is no politics in my conn ing hofne," the genial Walker said from the corner of his mouth. "I've had my day and my day Is done in politics.
 T have no misgivings over my public record. It speaks for itself and I think 1t speaks well. am

 New York, Nov. is--(Up) s--James J. (Jimny) Walker, the one-tlHne mayor who lifted the art of greeting guest to Q height never reached be- fore or since, returned yesterday to his native city and on enthusiastic but unofiicial welcome.
 Three years Of self-imposed exile for the wise-cracking, former play boy ofiicial, ended when the s. 8. Manhattan, bringing him from Eu- ropo, warped into quarantine Short- ly after noon.
 There was no key to the city for Walker nor did the fire boats play water before the Manhattan. But "Welcome back Jimmy" rang from the tugs that had brought down the k:3 former political allies Gin an unofticial capacity) and his night club loving pals of former years. ! Jimmy Was Nervous
 The mayor, sleekly-groomed as usual and looking older but in much better health than when he left from New York under fire In Sep- tember ie32, was nervous and jit- tery as the time neared for him to 70 ashore.
 IIis customary glib tongue could produce little but sentimentalities as the boat waited ct quarantine.
 "The New York skyline may look great to visitors" he said in . man. ner apologizing for the banality, "but 1t looks glorious to me-"
 Plans Indefinite
 The ex-Ynayor said his immediate plans were indefinite but he res peated his oft-proclaimed intention Of taking up the private practice of law. He had on extensive prac- tice before politics took up his ea- tire attention.
 Citizen Walker spoke of many things, including his great joy at returning to the city of his birth,

ALASKA SILVER IS BY-PRODUCT
 OF GOLD ORES
Output During 1884 Main ly Acquired from Val
 ued Materials

In 1884 silver to the value of about $74,000 is estimated to have been produced from Alaska ores and metals. By far the largest part of this silver was recovered as 8 minor accessory of materials valuable primarily for some other metal, notably gold. Thus, nearly three-quarters of this total was de- rived as by-product in the treat ment of the gold ores from the lodes of the Territory, and some what less than one-quarter from the refining of the placer gold, all of which contains some silver.
 A small amount of ore that was valuable mainly for it's silver con tent was mined in the Hyder dis trict of Southeast Alaska and in the Bonnifield district of the Yukon region.
 The foregoing statements Of tha value of the silver are based CT the provisional estimate CT 47ie cents an ounce as in iicated by monthly quotations in the Eng.n- eering and Mining Journal A though this price is more than 12 cents higher than the average sell ing price Of silver in l933 it is still much below the average price for the period from 1880 to 1883, which was approximately Il cents an ounce.
