MASSACHUSETTS,


BOsTON Nov. 22.-The action of the United
States authorities against VIM. Weld & Co.,
originated from the seizure in New York, some
two months since, of the books and papers of
Rufus Story & Co., on complaint Of spec'a
agent N. w. Bingham, and from these books
evidence Of false importatiOns was obtained
against the Boston firm. Previous to this a
criminal suit had been instituted, iii which the
jury disagreed, standing seven for tile govern
ment and five for the defendants. 1t is claimed
by Weld & Co.. that the proceedings are iusti-
tuted with a view of obtaining evidence to aid
the government in the prosecution OF the suit
now pending against them in New York, and
hence they have resisted the opening of their
safes, on the ground that it is malicious persecu-
zion and moi because they believe the officers of
customs or revenue expect TO sustain any charges
against them for fraudulent importationS at this
port,
The alleged irregular importations in the pres
ent case include fifteen hundred boxes of nut
megs, imported on ship Barnes January g.,
1858; seven hundred boxes of nutmegS, import
ed on ship Nabob, July "a, 1889; fourteen nun
dred and sixteen cases Of nutmcgs, and one
hundred and one cases of mace imported in
ship Rainbow, April T. 1870; twelve hundred
and twenty-five cases OF nutmegS, in ship Fear
less, January 3, 1871.
