New York SILK Smuggling.

THUNDER FROM CLEAR sKY-H. b. cLAFLIs d 90.
INDICTED BY THE GRAND JURY-oTHEn GREAT
HOUSES THREATENED.
In New York, yesterday, the Grand Jury of
the U. s. Circuit Court indicted II. b. Clafin Il
Co. for buying and selling smuggled silks, &c.
Wm H. Talcott the buyer for Clanin, WAS arres-
ted a few days ago for purchasing Ismuggled
silks through Gustave w. Hall, from W. w.
Graft &c Co., liquor dealers in Beaver street.
The Grand Jury found three indictments
against Talcott, all of them for relieving and
concealing large quantities Of smuggled silks.
There are three indictments against II. b. Claf-
lin x Co., the first charging them with conceal
ing six Cases of smuggled silk goods, valued at
$1,000. or the 21st day of April, 1873. The
second charges them with receiving and conceal
1878 quantities of valuable silks The third in
dictment charges them with having, during the
years 1873 and 1874, received and sold large
quantities OF Silks we'll knowing that the goods
had been imported into the United States from
the Republic of France contrary to law, that is,
smuggled into the port Of New York.
Rumors that something of this sort would be
done have been rife, but no one, not even the
officials, expected that the blow would fall 30
soon, and when the Grand Jury handed mp the
indictments against the time-honored firm to
Judge Benedict in the United States Circuit
Court the event startled all who heard Of it, as
would clap OF thunder from the cloar sky.
Three indictments were also found against the
firm of auctoneers known as Field Morris, Fem
ner d Co., in which the partners are charged
with concealing and helping to conceal smuggled
silk to the total value of 81, 100000 The mem
bers of the two firms indicted were not arr arrested,
but were requested to give bail in 500, 600 each.
1t is expected that the Grand Jury will find in
dictments against other well known merchants,
and against Custom house officials.
