THE BERLIN CONGRESS.
Blue Book Publlshed-Canards ExpIod

LONDON, July 23.-The Blue Book is pub
lished, containing detailed protocols of the
Berlin congress, and an official report of its
proceedings. They disclose nothing of in
terest to American readers which we have
not already given in our regular cable dis
patches.
Careful reading of this blue book estab-
fishes the utter falsity Of the pretended de-
tails published in certain New York journals
and protesting to have been received in cable
dispatches to an opposition association, or as
specials
Among the frauds thus exposed may be
mentioned what purported to be Prince Bis
marck's opening speech; Mehemet Alis pro-
test; and Count Schouvaloffs speech
about selling arms to the Chinese.
All these were purely imaginary. So
also We're the reports pretending to
give the details of the scene at the
death bed Of Queen Mercedes; massacre of
Jews in Russia; Bismarck dog story, and the
escape Of Vera Sassulitch. The speech made
in the House Of Commons on the eighth in
slant, attributed to Mr.. Cross, Home Secre-
tary, was not made; that gentleman did
briefly state that the conditional convention
between England and the Porte was con-
cluded on the fourth Of June but he stated
that it provided for the occupation Of Cyprus,
and not that it stipulated for it's cession to

THE NEXT PRESIDENCY.
TELDEN's CANVASS FOR RE-NOMINA-
TTON ALREADY BEGUN.
HIS Agents Hard Mt work, hut His Chances
POOr-N0t the Leader For the
Democracy.

NEW YORK, July 23.-The Tribune has the
following: Several things indicate, and poll
ticians say, that Mr.. Tilden's efforts to obtain
the presidential denomination In 1880 have
already begun. Republicans as well as Dem
ocrats give Iflden full credit for conducting a
remarkable canvass In 1876. His plan was to
learn, by exact investigation on the part of
his agents, the political preference Of each
registered voter in this State. This was so
carefully carried out, that the Democratic
majority la New York city fell only 500 short
Of Tildens reckoning, and his majority in the
State was about 1000 more than he antici-
pated.
1t Is stated that his agents are already hard
ut work, and i9has been limited he is even so
far-reaching In his new scheme OF manipula-
tion, as to prepare for the possible con-
tingenCy OF an election of the next President
by the House Of Representatives., in which
case 1t would be necessary for him to secure
majority of State delegates.
''Ex-Gov. Tilden's agents are not only busy
at this early date in every assembly district
Of the State" said prominent Democrat
yesterday, "but they have also been as in
dustriously at work during the past six
months. 1t was about the first of january
that his campaign Of 1880 opened. Edgar K.
Apgar, one of his chief lieutenants, was ap-
pointed to visit and report on the condition of
the charitable institutions and reformatories
in the State, and something like $5OOO," /
think, "was appropriated by the Legislature
to defray the expense of his mission. 1t Is
well understood that his secret mission is to
set Tilden g machine at work. in every county
of the State''
"Is Mr.. Tilden spending much money
now?"
,"This appropriation goes a little ways;
then the patronage of canal superintendent
through Gov. Robinson, who is 'Tilden's fac
tor, has been used In the interest of the new
canvass. Tilden has plenty Of money to use,
and besides he has nothing to do but to plot
and direct. He works like MOLE"
"Are his chances for nomination as good
for 1880 as they were In 1892"
"No; Tilden has a very poor chance of be-
coming the Democratic candidate in 1880.
There are good grounds for believing that
large delegations from the South and West
will oppose him, and Tammany Hall will be
as antagonistc as possible. There Is not the
least possibility of compromise"
SIS his canvass so far proving successful In
this State?"
:'From what hear | think not, and his
money can't help. The fact is, he has disap-
pointed the Democrats as political leader"

Railroad Lands Open to Pre-emprron.

WAsHINToN, July 23.-The Secretary of the
Interior to-day rendered a decision in the case
of DreymOtt against the Kansas Pacific Rail
road, in which he holds that all bona tide set
tiers have the right to pre-empt any lands
granted by Congress in aid of the construc-
ton OF this road, that have not been disposed
of by the company in accordance with the pro-
visions of the granting act.
The Secretary says in conclusion: Counsel
for the company suggests that these lands
are covered by q mortgage executed by said
company to secure the money borrowed In
the construction of the road. If this be true
| am unable to perceive that said mortgage is
any obstacle to the disposal of said lands, in
accordance with the provisions Of the grant
ing act.
The company mortgaged such interests in
the land as it possessed, and the mortgages
must be considered to have taken the mort
gage with full knowledge of the right of the
com pany to make same. Aside from these
considerations, however, the provision In the
mortgage which authorizes the company to
sell and dispose Of land granted, and make
conveyance thereof to purchasers, which con-
veyance shall release the right of mortgages
to the particular tract, will in same manner
protect the pre-emptOr who purchases of the
government, which has authority to sell lands
and pay the proceeds arising from such sales
to the company.
THE local officers of each of the land dis
tricts In which lands inuring to the said COM
pany by virtue of said grant are situated,
D0 LuSJIuCJeu W IOCeING IllIgS SOnul-
tionally for said lands In tracts not exceeding
e-quarter section, by qualified pre-emptOrs,
and on receipt OF such declaratory statements
to call upon the company for a statement
showing whether the lands applied for have
been sold by 1t, and il not sold, then the de-
claratory statement should be allowed, sub
iect to the applicants showing full compliance
with the pre-empttOn law.
Ii the company neglects or refuses to fur
nish such statement to the local officers with
in thirty days after the service Of said notice,
in that case they shall be instructed to order
a hearing, If so requested by the applicant to
determine whether such tract or tracts are
subject to such filing, giving notice of the
time and place when and where such testi-
mony will be taken, in some newspaper pub
lished and circulated in the county where the
lands are situated, notifying said company and
any and all persons, IL such there be- claiming
title to said lands, to appear at the time and
place mentioned to show cause why said de-
claratory statements should not be received.
At such hearing the applicant should be re-
quired to show that he Is an actual settler on
the land applied fora qualified pre-emptor-
and that the records Of the county, where
deeds and conyeyances are recorded, do not
show that said tracts had been sold at the
date Of the filing of his declaratory statement,
and the company or its grantee to show
whether said tracts applied for have been
sold.
This decision is of great importance to all
land grant owners,
