Declared That Nearly All His Family and Ministers Are Now Working to End War. Berlin, April 1'cacc at an early dale In regarded as probable by the German embassy in St. Petersburg, and In consequence of ilia-patches received from there by the government In the last three days this opinion circulates In official circles tm the first time since the war beRan. The Russian Emperor, it is Irup, has not jet decided for peace, but the grand dukra and all, or practically all, the members of the court, who have access to the Emperor, are for peace. The Czar is described In the gossip that goes about here as standing alone irresolutely.

The considerations that "till delay his decision era personal ones, he feeling that his reign a failure If Rusrda does not, win the war, and that his prestige as a sovereign will be lost at home and in foreign countries: but he cannot yet bring himself 1o speak the word that will set the peace negotiations In motion. Much good will and sympathy are fult for the Russian Emperor In higher official life here, but il Is regarded as a certainty that he must yield to his -family and ministers, and that the month will not end without peace. In the meantime the pros-ject of peace and the Incertitude of the Emperor weakens the military administration and de- lays the execution o( plans for fresh armies and the gathering of new supplies.

In Many Distiicts Local Considerations Are Paramount The Broken Pledge in A. D. That manv of ih srw aii.H Tammany Lid- ers ln Rrooklvi, are disaur.nlnied In Ihe I "av" receiver, nom i.iiai.. f. Murphy, and that as a nsuli some of the more pronounced of them are likely to go i over to Srr.itor McCarren In the coming pri- mary contests in ihii- borough, was Indicated i r.

tn to-day by former man wno is opposing Deputy County Clerk Items Winter for the leadership of the Twentieth Assembly District. Mr. Wlcke, was the Tammany candidate for leader In lhai district last year. He was defeated by Mr. Winter, supported Sma- tor McCarren.

but who according to some of his former friends his lately shown evidence of a desir? to he taken into Tammauy Hall. Mr. Wicke, who is going to attempt to wrest the leadership of the district from Winter again at the September primaries, declared to-day that he neither James Shevlln nor Tammany Hall In his fight against Winter, but thit If he Is successful In his fight against Winter, and the people of hU district and ihe delegates to ihe county Committee desire that he support Senator McCarren in the County Executive Committee he will do so. Mr. Wicks said that the real Tammany man in the Twentieth District 13 Mr.

Winter himself, and that he can prove that Mr. Winter has solicited the aid of Charles F. Murphy. While Mr. Wicke is ihe first of the former Tammany men to declare that he Is not fighting for Tammany Hall or Charies K.

Murphy. It Is said that there are at leatt a couple of others who are preparing to come out and announce that, if successful ln tbeir primary lights, they will stand by Se nator McCarren as against Tammany iiali. ln fact, it is expected that there will be a rc-allgnuitiu of the McCarren and the Tammany torces in the coming primaries, by the widespread istlng among the former lammany men; tnat is, tne men wno ma'ie tne primary lights tor Mr. Murphy In the last primaries Brookljn, against the methods of the lammany leader, ln some dincts by ihe tirco the primaries toll around it will probably be found that the men who fought last summer for 'lawnany Hall will be lined up with Senator McCanen for ihe purpote ot maintaining the independence of the Brook' lyn rrgular Democratic organization. On the other hand, cne two tenner McCarrc leader.

may be found on the aide of Mr. urphy. Senator McCarren, it is believed, will derive all tne henffit from this re-alignment oT the opposing Democratic force. iu al most every instance where a fotmer Mc- C'arrrn leader has Indicated his intention to support the Tammany leader at the pi itiiai ies it uaa 10 the purpose of self protection. One or two of the McCarren men i came within an ace last summer of being I themstlves, now propose to go over to Tammany Hall, while the men who fought them will be ranged on the side of Senator McCarren.

Another element that has served to bring about the indications cf a re-alignment of the opposing Democratic forces Is the fact that ln many of the Assembly districts the fights arc purely local, the issue of auton omy not entering into the contests at all Many of the present Assembly district lead- ers. both McCarren and antl-McCarren men have had lights on their hands for years, even before the trouble between Senator McCarren and Tammany Hall broke out. an their opponents have simply taken the opportunity that has been afforded by the break between McCarren and to take one bide or the other. Districts in which the flguis may be said to be purely local are the Fourth, the Sixth, It hp Twelfth, the Sixteenth and the 1 wen tieth. There would have been fights In those districts last year, end again this year, even though the falling out beiween Senator Mo- Can-en and Charles F.

Murphy had never taken place Denutv County Clerk Winter, who. arord- ing to former Assemblyman Wlcke. who is opposing nim ior tne leauersiup ot me iwen-tieth District, is a Tammany, and not a McCarren. man, despite the fact that the delegates from the Twentieth to the County General Committee are pledged to Senator McCarren. Is threatened from another source.

Former County Clerk P. P. Huberty. in a letter to the Eagle yesterday, declared that' he Is out against Mr. Winter, making the I same accusation against Mr.

Winter as Mr. i Wlcke, to the effect that the leader of the I Twentieth is trying to turn the people ot that district over to Tammany Hall. Mr. Hubrrty charges Mr. Winter with being a political acrobat and declares that the latter: dees not properly represent the district.

Mr. Wirter. when seen to-day, in reply to the letter or Mr. Huberty said: "I am not worrying about Mr. Huberty.

All I have to say is that I look out after my dis- triot day and night. That Is more thati cao be Faid about some other people." Kdward J. Gilgannon, one of the delegates to the Cbunty General Committee from the Seventeenth Assembly District, who deserted Senator McCarren for Tammany Hall, after sigrltig a pledge with Joseph P. Donnelly, the new Tammany leader of the district, to support the Brooklyn leader, made a state nient to-day. In which he said: "That pledge was repudiated and dissolved months ago by six of the gentlemen who signed It.

when they tried to oust Mr. Don- nelly from the leadership to which he was elected by the Democrats of the district; when they tried to thwart the will 0f the Democrats who voted for Donnelly's elec- tion nt the last primaries and held a rump convention at which they elected Henry F. Cochrane as executive member, which they had no right to do. It was not the first time they nttempted to overthrow Mr. Donnelly and run the regular dlsirlct association as a close corporation for their own benefit.

They tried to put Judge Naumer's name In place of that of Mr. Donnelly until I pro- tested. This occurred In the office of S. S. Whltehouse and former Judge Thomas J.

Kenna was present and disapproved the sub- stltutlon of Judge Naumer's name for that of Mr. Donnelly. "When the Democratic General Committee Issued a call to all the Assembly district committees to meet at the respective headquarters and organize for the year 1905 those six gentlemen who tried to overthrow-Mr. Donnelly held a meeting on the night before the date set for the regular meeting. They met at Mr.

Moody Boynton, the Inventor woo built the bicycle railroad across the meadows to Coney Island, has gone into bankruptcy as a flual result of his efforts to make his single rail traction road a success. He has filed a voluntary petition In bankruptcy In the Bos- 10,1 courts, showing liabilities of about $10,000 more than his assets. Boynton dreamed that his Invention would make him the railroad king of the world. To-day he gives his total assets at only 1300, while he owes $106,101 In scheduled debts. a line of rotten timbers across the Coney IMand meadows marks the wreck of Boynton's first bid for wealth and power in the railway world.

For a few weeks he startled the whole country with a railroad running trains at a mile a minute on a single track. That was twenty-five years ago. when twenty miles an hour was a fair average on railroads. After electric power came Into general use Boynton could send cars along at the rate of 100 miles an hour. He was not satisfied with the failure of his railroad plana ln Brooklyn and Long Island, but went to Massachusetts and burled money in promoting his Invention there.

The Boynton bicycle railroad Invention has been used as the basis of several wonderful themes bached by whole companies of Colonel Mulberry Sellers' family, all crying out. "There's millions In It." For many year, the promoters of the railroad were iibuiiug umer muruuu luieresis, Ulliy 10 mcei failure In the end. When the State Railroad Commission refused, afler years of exploltatlou by the pio-noters. to giVM the bicycle rallroaj a certificate, i'e tiiuils of lue company were io mat ailur.ng scmuio to build a Venice o. liiK.uuO persons stretch- 'nK ovcr lnc shallow waters of Jamaica fcy.

Infatuated with the Idea of getting; rtc.i in a hurry, have put neir haul earned savings Into, this Bay scheme, in winch several Long Island and Brooklyn men Interested. scheme foil Into some disrepute itlter It became known that It was backed uy Pet was Philip the labor leader now appealing for a sentence Imposed after conviction on the charge of extorting a bribe. The Boynton bicycle railroad idea led to a dramatic fight between the late Austin Corbln and his nephew, Frederick W. Dun-ton.

Tje uncle and nephew quarreled ana It was due largely to Mr. Corbln'. efforts that the plans of Mr. Dunton were s-jt at rough! Mr. Dunton ran for presid" it of the Borough of Queens, the year of consolidation, and was defeated.

It was Dunton who succeeded Boynton aa promoter of the bicycle railroad. Boynton built his railroad from Neck road and Gravesend avenue In the meadows to the old Cable Hotel, near the Brighton Beach Race 1 rack. It was a queer looking struc- irame work, ctanatng up twenty icet i ne cars were narrow, with Jt-st room for one person to a seat, ihy ere double decked cars, and were supported mainlv by wheels resting cn the single rail beneath, although part of the weight was carried on an overhead rail, which was tiBed chiefly in holding the cars upright. The cars were pulled by steam locomot Ives, People were afraid of Boynton's freak road. They thought all forts of accidents would happen on the bicycle tralus whizzing over the meadows at more than a mile a minute.

Lack of patronage and other troubles caused a shut-down of the road after a few weeks. Since then the structure har rotted away. Frederick W. Dunton and others bought the patent for Ihe elevated bicycle railroad on Long and formed a compauy known as Hie Kings. Queens and Suffolk County Company.

They fornie-d a gigantic plan to gird Lout; Island with bicycle rail roads, paralleling: tne Lonr; Island Rallroid tramc. had formed in booiV own ba of Tl became known fsBoS town. It was said that nearly a million dol lars was sunk there by Investor. In sand dunes and scrub oak. A few huts mark the spot where a wouderful city was to be built.

Dunton built an experimental railroad a mile and a half in carrying out the Idea of the single roll elevated road, with elecirlclty as the motive power. This road was used 10 demonstiate the capabilities of irh a railroad. It was approved by sev ho would build the road, anyhow, after awhile. In the meantime, he said he would nwiiiie. in makP mney for this company by developing the submerged marsh In Jamaica Bay to which he had title given by the old town of Jamaica, per cent, to the He paid a dividend of 4 stockholders.

This led others to Invest. In 1S97. the bicycle railroad Idea was practically abandoned and Dunton tried to have nil the funds of the company diverted to the land Improvement scheme. Desmond Dunne of Brooklyn was secretary of the company at that time and he, with other directors, refused to permit the money of the stockholders to be used for a purpose other than that for which was subscribed. Rather than consent, to the new scheme, Mr.

Dunne and other dlroctors resigned. It Is said that the company's rights were then transferred to the Co-operative Society of New Jersey, which planned to build a Venice iu Jamaica Bay. August Imrnlg. of Baldwin. L.

Dunton afterward released all his rights to land under water In Ja- i males Bay. giving the City of New York absolute title to tne una The Industrial Federation was changed Into the National Industrial Federation, with the same alluring prospectus.

Several labor union leaders were interested In the enterprise and It was from laborers that the dollars were collected to run the concern.
