RUMORED FLIGHT OF HARRY" GENET.
an ANTICIPATED DECISION OF THE SUPREME COURT
AGAINST HIS COUEsEL's APPEAL SAID TO HAVE
CAUSED GENET's HAsTY DEPARTURE FROM THE

Henry c. Genet was convicted during the
strong impulse which led to the prosecution Of all the
men concerned in cheating the City OF NewYOrk. His
own particular fraud the duplication Of bills
for the building OF the Harlem Court House. He
allowed TO go at large under a deputy
sherif7s charge after his conviction and be-
fore his sentence. How he ran away has not
been fully explained, but that he away is well
known. William A. Beach, his counsel, very much
troubled about tins breach Of faith which seemed IN
very way, affect him and, feeling strongly
his technical exceptions and perhaps real reasons
entitled Genet to a re-ria, induced hum to return. Mr.
Genet came beck. and. the understanding that he
had delivered himself up either to upset his conviction
or at most, 10 get a trial, admitted to
bail In S250OO HIS appeal was presented TO the Court
at General Term.
The decision Of Court is Of course confined 10 the
Judges OF that Court but II is rumOred that the
Supreme Court, General Term, has decided that Mr..
Beachs hne-drdwn points not the law. This de-

should be allowed to have counsel. This
request was denied. He respectfully sub
mitted that it was unjust to permit Stan
ly Matthews TO appear with counsel, and
at the same time to deprive him of that
privilege. He desired to question Mat
thews, while answering questions proposed
by his counsel. But the committee refused
these reasonable requests of Anderson
He then declined to answer their ques-
tions. and the committee went into pr-
vate session, and adjourned subject to the
call Of the chairman.
