A Clan of Importers, Brokers and Gus
tom Employees Pull Together
for Years.

New York, April 21.-For SOME weeks
past Collector Hendricks has been
quietly working upon a clew, which has
at last unraveled proceeding which
has been carried on in this port for
years. between a elan of importers,
brokers and customs employees, by
which the government has been de-
frauded of large sums of money. About
forty persons have been arrested, and as
many more will he taken into custody
this week. Special treasury agent White
head, and force of detectives, are.
cooperating with collector Hendricks in
the matter. The system of frauds prac-
ticed has been in the undervaluation of
| imports, and the operators are mostly OF
class of persons hitherto considered
! honorably connected with some of the
most respectable merchantile houses of
the continent. The first arrests, made
on Tuesday created great excitement IN
the circles of those implicated, and when
/ the newspaper reporters heard of it ef
forts were made to get at the facts, but
the collector and his assistants had pro-
vided against revelations so closely that
no information could be had until the
beginning of the wholesale arrests, then
it was learned that the authorities have
been for some time quietly investigating
what has turned out to be the most
gigantic conspiracy of the times. At
least seventy-five persons are implicated
in the steal, and the sum taken aggre-
gates over $500, 900. Importers, customs
inspectors, weighers and assistants, as
, well as some gaugers, belong tothe ring,
which appears to have been operating
successfully number OF years.

california,s Earthauake.

SAN FRANcrsco, April 20.-A singular
impression possessed many residents of
Vacaville yesterday to the effect that
they had not passed all danger, and this
dread apprehension was realized, when,
at three separate times, from 2 :02 to
6 40 a. M, shocks of an earthquake were
repeated, and if building was only
slightly injured yesterday, today the
wreck is complete. In the creek one
mile above town are fssures from one
to six inches wide, from which gases es-
capped, making a loud, kissing sound.
Water was thrown out of the creek on
the banks on either side distance of
twenty-twof feet by the explosion. There
was no apparent excitement but more
shocks were awaited. There were none,
| however, until S:25, and that was al
most as sharp as its early morning pre-
decessors. The town presents even q
more ruined appearance than yesterday
Debris is piled UP everywhere. Build
ings all around town have opened up
and many walls that were only cracked
yesterday are nearly ready to fall today
Shocks were also felt at Dixon at 2, 4
and $50 a. m. They we're all of shor
duration compared with the one of TIN
night before. A large force of men hav
been engaged to clear away the ruins O
yesterday mornings damages. Simila
reports come from Haywards, Benicia
Stockton, Woodland, Sacramento an,

tinct shocks were felt.
