The opinion

*967 On Motion for Rehearing.

PER CURIAM.

The application for modification of the compensation order under Section 22 of the Act, 33 U.S.C.A. § 922 , was understood by the Deputy Commissioner and by us to be upon the ground of “a change in conditions” since the order, and not because of “a mistake in the determination of a fact” in making the order. We have adjudicated nothing touching any mistake.

The motion for a rehearing is denied.
