B0NI LOSES AGAIN.
Referee Awards Anna Gould Custody
of Her Children.

Paris. May Pom. Seligman. a repre-
sentative of the department of justice,
has presented his conclusions in the
Castellane-Sagan suit in favor of the
defendant. On December 80 of last
year, the French court handed down a
decision that the sons of Count Boni
De Castellane remain in the custody of
their mother, the present Princess De
Sagan. The count, however, appealed
from this decision in May of this year,
and this appeal has since been argued.
NJ. Seligman said the evidence sub
mitted showed that the conduct of the
Princess De Sagan was irreproachable
before her marriage and that she had
remained since good mother and wife.
Consequently, he recommended that
this court confirm the decision of the
lower court, giving her the custody of
the children. The formal decision will
be rendered May &C.
