The elven king thought the dwarves were there to steal his treasures.
Elvenking reponded that the smaug would tell if they are going to steal
There was not always animosity between the Elves and the Dwarves. Dwarves made the best armour and the elves often traded and bought and sold. The entrance was the primary access point for their dealings, and was placed their mostly for the purpose of the elves. The elves of Eregion were great craftsmen, and they traded and worked with the dwarves of Moria, and there was great friendship. This ended when Sauron revealed himself, slew the elves' king, Celebrimbor, and the Gates of Moria were shut.
BilboThorin Oakenshield...They later found out they he had been caught by the elves and locked up by the Elven King.
The elves in "The Hobbit" did not know how the dwarves could have travelled there. They thought the barrels were all empty.

The Elves felt they were being attacked and responded in kind. Since Thorin refused to tell them why he was in their realm, for fear they would want some of the treasure (he coveted the Arkenstone and feared others would try to take it), they decided to imprison him just to be safe. The Elves distrusted the Dwarves, and they had, for many years, been seen as beggars.
The battle was just starting when the orcs showed up. They were the common foe of all and the elves, dwarves, and men fought against them instead of each other.
The elven king in The Hobbit is the leader of the race of Elves that lived in Mirkwood.
The elves in "The Hobbit" did not know how the dwarves could have travelled there. They thought the barrels were all empty.
They took them to the halls of the Elven King in his hall, a large cave at the edge of Mirkwood. The wood elves of Mirkwood, in the Hobbit, took the thirteen dwarves to their king's halls, where they were locked in by cellars and a magic gate.
