MAKING CHANGES.
Collins Begins Work Of STRENGTHENING
the Boston American.

Collins seems to have at last awoks
to the fact that some changes in his
team are necessary. The first change
ne tried was to sit on the bench in
plain clothes and send another man in :
TO the game to play his position. Sat
0rday he handed Pitcher Gibson his
~ days notice of release, with no con-
o1tions attached. This reduces the
oox stan of the Boston Americans 10

TEXAS ONION CROP LARGE.
Yield of Bermrdas This Season About
1000 Cars-Average Profit Per Acre
$3.50.

Kingsville. Tex. May EFT is esti-
mated that the Bermuda onion crop Of
Texas this season aggregates about
1000 cars. The bulk Of the shipments
of the product has been made. There
are probably $50 cars yet to he mar
keted, The Laredo district alone pro-
duced more than 500 cars of Bermuda
onions. The territory along the st.
Louis, Brownsville & Mexico and the
San Antonio < Arkansas Pass roads
produced several hundred cars. The
aggregate yield is enormous when the
limited acreage planted in onions is
taken into consideration. Probably $500
per car was an average price. The AZ
erage net amount of money realized
from each acre planted in onions this
season is about $3.50. Some of the
onion growers. who received the top
prices and had unusually large yields.
made net as much as $500 per acre.

set up that he is not eligible for the race
When his term in the Senate expired dem

Mr.. Harris, man of action and ability
sought pastures new, and made headquar-
tiers In Chicago. AS things look brighter
now in the sunfiower bailiwick. the demo-
Gratis in search of leader have fixed upon
their former leader. and he Is willing to
serve them again. The discovery made and

introduced into our politics may lead to

the Decentralization which the spectacle Of
thwarted law entails. Certain classes OF
people learn to look upon the court process
as subject to the influence of wealth Pris-
oners with the means to fight Their appeals
through and to take advantage of every
technicality are saved from punishment for
years while poor men who cannot muster
the funds to finance their cases are given
short shrift. There follow naturally dis
trust of the courts and belief that there
is one law for the rich and another for the
poor. This leads to a feeling of desperation
and resentment.
The right of appeal must not. Of course
be taken from the defendant but it must
be opened evenely to all classes. The
money burden must be equalized. No
mans liberty or life should be made con-
tingent upon his means to prosecute his
case to the court of last resort or to take
advantage Of every legitimate opportunity
afforded by the statutes for revision and
retrial. At the same time. these oppcrtun-
tiles should not be extended as result Of
the defendants ability to pay until the
prisoner who has plenty OF money or
wealthy friends and sympathizers is ena-
-bled to take an undue advantage of tho
law.

Mr.. Jerome was reelected In New York
on the record he had made as a champion

be brought to book of a man OF his fear
iessness and ability. The voters responded
to that view with a large majority. But for
several months now Mr.. Jerome has been
under a hot fire from the ranks of his sum-
porters, on the charge of inertness in the
insurance cases. Some of his friends have
lost confidence in him. He Is at last at
work. but fear Is expressed that he has In
jured the states case by his course It is

Paris and the Grand Dukes.

Paris must be changing. Russian grand
dukes who have been harboring there have
been warned OF danger. and Alexis it Is
stated. has departed. Time was when the
French capital was most hospitable to these
men. When their spirits tagged at home,
and noble natures sighed for new field.
they betook themselves to Paris, where
their wealth and spendthrift tastes found
every qualification. The pegs" at the card
table, both in winnings and losings, were
set by these Russians; and their establish
ments were supported on a plane which
threw the efforts of the natives into the
shade They seemed as much at home on
the banks of the Seine on the banks or
the Neva. But that day evidently has de-
parted. Money no longer secures either
welcome or safety. And yet France is still
Russia's ally. The pact formed some years
ago has never been formally denounced.
Nevertheless a new day has dawned for
both Russia and France.

Delayed Punishment.

A striking instance of the laws DELAY is
furnished by the case OF Mrs Botk!n who
was the sensation OF the whole country
about eight years ago when she was ae-
cused OF sending poisoned candy through
the mails 10 compass the death OF the wife
OF the man she loved. Mrs. Botkin was
tried twice in California the fury disagree
ing on the first trial and a conviction re-
sGiting in the second instance. The woman
was sentenced TO life Imprisonment APP
peals were taken TO court after court and
on one pretext and another the woman was
held out OF the penitentiary, where she
should have been imprisoned Yester-
day she gave up the fight and asked that
she be formally committed TO the prison at
San Quentin. OF course a delay of eight
years in the case of life sentence is of no
especial consequence. save that Il involves
heavy expense to the community In the
costs of hearings. trials. arguments and
other court proceedings. But just such de-
lays occur IN other cases and the public Is
becoming impatient. Lawyer Patrick. who
has been convicted of murder In New York
has recently been granted an additional res
pite by the governor. although he has ex-
hausted practically every possible chance
to secure a retriai or another argument on
his case. This man was accused nearly six
years ago and has been under sentence of
death for four years.
The evil OF such prolonged proceedings
lies not so much in the delay Itself as In
