UPHOLDS COMMISSION IN |TS AUTHORITY TO GRANT REHEAR|NG

An order denying the application Of Ira J. Johnson, general agent of the New York Life Insurance company for Arizona, for a writ of prohibition en- joining the corporation commission from reopening the case in which he was defendant was made by Judge Lyman yesterday This order sustains the authority of the commission to grant rehearing of the case in which the commission last fall eXonerated Johnson of charges that had been made against him by Claude Burson, an agent of the New York life, that he had accepted an application for insur : ance through a non- licensed agent, and otherwise violating the laws of the state for the regulation of the insur- ance business.
 These charges were made last sum mer, and late in the year they were heard. The commission issued an or der dismissing them, Commissioners Betts and Cole concurring and Com missioner Jones dissenting in a rather vigorous opinion.
 Mir Burson filed a motion for re- hearing on the last day that such mo- tion, under the law, could be filed and the first day of the newly organized commission in which D. r. Johnson succeeded Commissioner Cole. The new commission ordered a rehearing and fixed the date of it, whereupon application was made for the writ on the ground that the respondents were without authority or jurisdiction to re- i open the case.
