Cox i'm State Tomorrow

BY Special Correspondent.
TRENTON, Oct. 21-The original
itinerary of Governor Cox, Demo-
cratic presidential nominee, when
he tours New Jersey tomorrow has
been changed. His rear platform
addresses to be made from the train
at New Brunswick, Railway and
Elizabeth have been eliminated be-
cause of the fact that the tracks are
elevated at these stations and it
would be impossible for crowd to
get near enough to the candidate to
hear him. He will talk at noon in
the Grand theatre here and then
will go to Lawrenceville where he
will talk briefly following which he
will reach Princeton for an address.
The two night meetings will be held

candidate a reception at the Tren-
ton House before the mass meeting
