On Application for Rehearing.
MAYFIELD, J.
[6, 7] This court will never remand a cause for a new trial on the ground that there might possibly be new evidence offered at the next trial. The court must be satisfied that additional or different evidence will be offered a't the next trial, and that such trial would probably result in a different verdict. An application for a reversal, which merely claims that the party applying should have the opportunity to offer new evidence if he desires — as is done in this case — is not sufficient. Certainly not when, as in this case, the party desiring the new trial prevented the identical evidence from being offered on the first trial.
Application overruled.
