Only four bonds had been paid , however , so that thevo Is $7,000 which could not be accounted for vcr.v satisfactorily. CJablonnd Frecso claimed that-tho opera tion of the business hud been very expen sive and that they had paid out large sums of money in lilt-lug agents , paying adver tising bills and pushing the business gen erally , thus accounting for their fail ure to pay off any moro bonds. They claimed thnt they had actually lost money In the vcntin o , and were $700 in the hole.
