[Copyrighted 1893 by James Gordon Bennett,) Pais, Feb. 3.—New York Herald Cable Special to Tue Bee.] - Diplomatic immun iy sis the plea behind which Chevalier de Steurs, the Netherlands minister to Pa takes refuge to prevent his former wife, now Mrs. Elliott Zborowski from ol session of her daughter, now in the convent of Sacre Ceeur The custody of this Mrs. de Steurs by the courts, which granted divorce, but the superioress of the convent, prompted by de Steurs, refuses to give up the girl without an injunction from the French courts. The case came up today before the fiest chamber of the civil court. It was rumored that the presiding judge, Debois Lisle, was a parti- san of Chevalier de Steurs and the opening When Clunet, barrister for Mrs. Zborowski, rose the judge told him to be very bidef. Clunet rebelled, and argued that the case involved a new point and that it was impossible to do justice to his client without laying all the facts before the court. “Inever knew of such a thing before,” said Clunet, and eventually the judge allowed him to speak, on the condition that he would be brief. Clun rds told me the judge’s at- titude was a scandalous, shameful, deliber- ate attempt to throttle the suit. However, Clunet, once started, was not easily stopped In his speech of keen argument and well marshalkd facts he dwelt of Mrs. Zborow ski's right to the custody of her child and referred with cutting irony to the cowardly action of de Steurs, who vas taking advantage of his position asa minister balk justice and keep the mother from even seeing her child. I am above says de Steurs. Clunet then drew a striking contrast between this attitude of Steurs and his energetic defense before the Dakota court. Beaten in open fight, de Steurs had taken refuge behind his diplo- matic immunity. Thus a woman who, in the first instance had been refused justice in France because of her husband’s position, who had sought and found justice in America and returned to France to take possession of her child, was aguin to be de nied justice, Clunct then Argament Ap- ris, ning pos here. was accorded South Dakota examined the from a making cleverly the point that de Steurs’ diplomatic immu- nity was not in question, f'he court reserved jndgment for a week Mrs. Zborowski was not in court, Elliott Zborowski was an attentive listener.
