Head Matter:
William B. Frye, as Administrator, etc., of Ray A. Edson, Deceased, Appellant, v. Phœnix Assurance Company, Limited, of London, England, and Others, Respondents.

Opinion:
Judgment and order affirmed, with costs. All concur, except Sears, P. J., who dissents and votes for reversal on the law and facts and for granting a new trial on the ground that a verdict establishing incendiarism is contrary to and against the weight of the evidence. (The judgment is for defendants in an action under fire insurance policies. The order denies a motion for a new trial on the minutes.) Present — Sears, P. J., Edgcomb, Crosby, Lewis and Cunningham, JJ.
