An Alleged swiudling Conspiracy

The New York Tines of Wednesday contains
the following:
"On December 10, 1874, il was noticed that con-
siderable quantities OF goods were being removed
from the store Of J. Z. Weir, dry goods merchant,
i35 Grand street, TO one of the stores of Rouss,
Bell 4 Co., auctioneers of this city, Brooklyn and
New Jersey. On the following Monday Weir dis
appeared. and his stock was sold out BY the Sher-
ia. Shortly afterward it was discovered that
Weir, although without capital, had fraudulen,ly
obtained from several merchants in the city goods
valued at between Sl0,O 900 and $4,000, and that
Weir and Rouss, OF ROuss, Bell & Co., were old
friends, and that weirs job to obtain goods by
false preteuseS had been suggested and operated
by Rouss. Weir subsequently arrested in
Philadelphia under the name OF John Elliott and
on being brought TO this city, admitted his guilt,
stated that he had given Rouss fraudulent con-
fessed judgments. aud that the greater portion Of
the goods obtained were sold by Rouss, on whose
suggestions he acted. Quantities Of the goods
traudulently obtained By Weir were discovered in
the stores OF Rouss, Bell d. Co., and indictment
for grand larceny and receiving stolen goods was
yesterday found against Charles B. Rouss and
William J. Bell. The accused were arrested and
taken 10 the district attorneys office. WHARF they
