Genet, the convicted Tammany thief, was seen
driving through Harlem at O'Clock yesterday
morning. Persons who saw him say he made no
effort to disguise himself. 1t was suspected at
the district attorneys Office on Saturday that an
attempt would be made by Genet to escape, and
an order was given by the court for his confne-
ment in the TOmbs unit his sentence had been
pronounced, but the order of the court was
ignored by the sheriff. The latest rumor in re-
gard TO the escape of Genet is that be embarked
on his own yacht, which had been loaded with
provisions and filed with friends in readiness
for his flight. Sheriff Brennan has offered s. 900
reward for his arrest. Yesterday afternoon the
district attorney asked for an order against
Sheriff Brennan or his deputy, W. j. Shields, to
show cause why they should not be punished for
contempt in disregarding the order OF the court
in the Genet case. The district attorney said he
notified the sheriff Saturday that Genet might
escape, but no attention was paid to the noti6-
cation. An order returnabie at 10 a. m. to-day
was granted.

INDIANS RAIDIEG In TRxAs.-A private let
ter received here from DIR. Thomas kearney,
dated Laredo, Texas, December 8, says eve
have had q terrible Indian raid here this week.
The mail-rider from Corpus Christi reported
six bodies lying along the road, and two carts,
with freight, deserted; and the news from the
ranches tells us Of many poor devils having
gone up: was fortunate, having driven with
in 10 miles of here my entire flock, only . few
days before, to secure q favorable place for
lambing The Indians, 80 in number, passed
mp the country on their way back within eight
OF nine miles of me, and shot an old amigo
friend of mine at his ranch. He was brought
here last night, and will probably recover. He
tells me the indiana were all clad in red shirts,
which shows that they attacked store between
here and Corpus, plundered 1t, and killed oil
hands and the cook. All the cavalry force on
this frontier, east Of Eagle Pass, nearly 300
miles above this, lie stationed at Ringgold bar
racks, $50 miles below, and Brownsville, 800
miles from here. So far a. protecting this part
Of the country from Indians is concerned, the
troops may Is well be in Bengal. At this post
there is part Of company Of colored infantry.
The Indians are supposed to be Comanches
from the government reservation, and IL would
seem to be about time that some notice should
be taken by the military authorities at Wash
ington Of these cold .blooded murders."
