Message From Dead Re-

Convened Made Public
speclol DISPATCH to The Tribune

TRENTON, N. j., July s17.-Governor
Cox will be the next President Of the
United States. So, at least, Melvin A.
Fogg, of the First Spiritualist Church
here, insists. He was so informed by
w. A. Roberts, of Washington, who got
it straight from Abraham Lincoln.
The message in question purports to
have been received week before the
Democratic convention began. 1t indi-
Gates that, though Lincoln may have
risen to higher planes of endeavor, he
has sunk to lower levels of English.
Here is the prediction, taken down as
dictated by Roberts:
"Comrade Roberts: My opinion of
the political situation is that a Demo-
crat will be elected, and possibly Gov
ernor Cox or Edwards of New Jersey
will be the nominee. That is so far as
I can forecast the matter, but it is
hard to say, for some black horse may
come along and get it. 1t is as hard to
forecast an election as it is to forecast
a crop of corn. However, thank you
for your courtesy in asking me the
question. I was some interested in
politics in my time, but now / have
other matters on my hands and pay lit
tie attention to politics.

at the conference.
The formal statement given out by
the publicity committee appointed BY
the conferecs follows:
"At an Informal luncheon at the
Fort Orange Club to discuss state
political questions fourteen counties of
Central and Northern New York were
represented, These questions were
discussed without reference to any
candidate and wholly with the iden Of
endeavoring to cooperate with the
state and national organizations and In
the interest Of the entire Republican
ticket. Some statements made in the
press regarding the meeting are wholly
erroneous, as the only interest ex-
pressed was how best to cooperate to
bring about successful aud satisfac-
tory result at the unofficial convention
at Saratoga. The only definite action
was that the delegations from the
counties represented will be asked to
send representative to attend sub
sequent conference to be held at
Saratoga the evening of July 28, the
day prior to the unofficial convention"
