There were about fifty of the bond holders present who had each paid In Bums varying from ? -IO to over $700. It appears thai the payments have been made regularly over since the company was started until last month , when the cfllcoii of the com pany did not receive the money. .Most of those prr-sent last evening stated they had paid the September dues on the Investment bonds to the secretary , K. Perry Uvans , who has since removed to Kansas Clt > Thcro appeared to be a division of opinion as to the character of the company. Some hold to the view that the company v.as never organized on a plan which could re turn to the Investors In Its bonds what the ofilccrs promised , while others held that If properly managed the scheme would have bcei < a winner. Whatever might have been their opinion as lo the plan , there wan a unanimity of opinion that the chances of getting back thc money invented were not very brilliant under the exlutlng circum stances There did not appear to bo any ono present who had any well denned Idea of the condillon of the assets of the com pany or whether It had any. The consen sus of opinion was , hoivcvei. that the as sets consisted largely of unfulfilled prom ises. ises.After After considerable talk to no particular . Jtposo the meeting organized by electing J. C. Smith chairman and II. Pevburn sec retary. A committee of three , as folloua was appointed to look after the Intelcsts of the bondholders and take such action as was deemed necessary to protect their Interest * M. A. Mccliam , S. P. Woolf and D. Lane. It Is the understanding that this commit tee shall employ attorney , find out as much M possible about the condition of thu com pany and take any other action that U deemed advisable to protect the Interests of the bondholders. The understanding vvas that the attorneys should , If It was found that the ofllcors had leeched money after they knew thc concern vvas Insolvent. Insti tute criminal proeccdingi ] against such oill- ccrs , or that ciimlnal proceedings should bo Instituted In case It was found that the business waa organized on a plan which was Illegal and cnmo within the special statutes which have been enforced against several bond investment companies. In ad dition to thLj any action which promised to secure a return of the money paid In was to bo taken. IS TO I1AVK A TICICIJT.

No action of any charaeter was taken , although nn hour vvns spent In discussion.
