1Opinion of the CourtCohx, J.
Plaintiff (hereafter called Madison) the owner of a leasehold on a building brought this action to recover on fire insurance policies issued by defendant insurance companies for loss resulting from fire. On May 9, 1951, a casualty, which plaintiff claims was a fire, originated in the switchboard room, in the basement of Madison’s building. In their answer defendants affirmatively plead that the loss to plaintiff was the result of an electrical disturbance, that no fire ensued, and that as provided in the policies in such case, defendants are not liable.
