Subsequently the matter was returned to the calendar and a decision was made † as follows: “ Confirm previous award and continued. Referred to Attorney-General to prepare for appeal.” It appears that some new evidence was taken. It does not appear whether the testimony was taken on the question of reopening the award or on the merits. No new findings or award have been made, filed or served. The old award stands.
