Insurance Commissioner Moore, of Columbus. o.,
was at the Fiftn Avenue Hotel Yesterday. In an
swer to an inquiry whether his department had re-
Voked the license of the Fidelity and Casualty
Company, of New-loTk, Mr.. Moore said that The
cert rtifcate of the company had not been revoked,
but that there was matter IN dispute about the
rIght of the company to transact fidelity lnsur-
ace business in Ohio. He had no authority TO re-
woke a cOmpany's license, except for insolvency or

license that company tomorrow to do three kinds
of business in Ohio-plate glass, steam boiler and

ance the Ohio laws are not definite, and legislation
is necessary.
