We deem it prejudicial to appellant's rights in this proceeding that a hearing and notice thereof were not given to it prior to the granting by the Public Service Commission of the amending order of July 21,1931. We do not pass upon the correctness of the order in any other respect.

All concur. Present — Sears, P. J., Taylor, Thompson, Crosby and Lewis, JJ.
