 Mexico Is Looked For.

Washington Coupled with reports from Mexico that the Carranza Gen eral Obregon had won an important victory over the forces of Generals Villa and Angeles at Leon, it was said that informal efforts-as yet without official sanction-were being made by Mexieans identified with the Villa tion with the view of establishing reconciliation with the Carranza fac ton with the view of establishign a Government that could claim recogni- tion at the hands of the United States.
 Eliseo Arrendondo, Washington rep resentative of General Carranza, re- ceived a message from a Carranza Consul on the border saying he had been approached by a Villa official, speaking presumably with authority to learn what could be done to initiate peace negotiations. The message was forwarded without comment by Mr Arrendondo to General Carranza at Vera Cruz.
 "I have nothing official. and can. therefore, make no comment" said Mir. Arredondo.
 Enrique c. Llorente of the Villa-Za- pata coalition said he had no official advfces that any peace parleys had begun, adding that he believed any preliminaries in this connection would be arranged through his agency. He said he had received telegram from Miguel Diaz Lomhardo. Secretary of State of the Villa-Zapata Government. in which the latter announced his de- parture from Chihuahua for Leon to confer with General Villa on the gen eral situation.

Special Hartford Correspondence
 Hartford.-Attorney-General George l.. Hinman has been asked by Frede, rick M Williams, chairman of the workmen's compensation commission, if accidents occurring on the day when Governor Holcomb signed the amendment to the compensation law. passed at the last session of the gen. eral assembly, are to be considered as governed by the law. which is Chapter No. 2SS of the public acts of 1915. Mir. Hinman says if the in, jury occurred subsequent to the ap- proyal of the act by the governor 1t should be considered as governed by it.
 The attorney general discusses the meaning Of Che term passage of an act and says that "by the passage of an act is meant the conclusion of all the constitutional forms and cere- monies requisite to make the act a law including the signature of the executive"
 In the case of most public acts taking effect from their passage. says the attorney.generals opinion. the ne- cessity of recognition of fractions of day does not arise but the weight ot American authority is that stat. ute taking affect from it's passage is operative from the instant ot its passage and while in general the law disregards fractions of a day. this rule is not adhered to where such a course would work mischief or injustice. and it becomes necessary to inquire as to the hour or minute of Che day
 Attorney General Hnman quotes number of opinions. including Branard vs. Bushnell. t11 Conn. l6. "A; Louisville Ys, savings bank. 10l T. s. 36at3S; Kennedy against Pad. mor and Grosyeuor against McCfl in United states reports.
