Men Whose Families Are lu Country, Form New Organization. New York, Aug 14. To his already long list of social organizations, Fath er Knickerbocker has nuw added one more which is said to be uuique lu the history of the city if not of the whole country. This Is the "homeless husbandsclub." It has been created by a number of men who, while their families are in the country, are forced to remain in the city, but who do not care to keep open the lonely house or apartment. Of course, these home less men are all members of .'uany clubs at which they might live. But this the homeless ones have found a drawback, since when one of them wishes to find another homeless friend It Is frequently necessary for him to search through eight or a dozen clubs to locate him.

There la pan try service on each floor and a large suite Is to be reserved for dining rooms. A suite on the corner of each floor will be reserved for lounging purnos. es and later on It Is likely that bll Hard tables and other usual club par a nhernalla will be introduced. The popularity of the new club Is evidenc ed by the presence on its board of governors of many of the city's noted men. j LEXOW INVESTIGATION REVIVER, !

The politi cal significance of the murder Is at present confined to speculations as to what the result will be If District At torney Whitman la actually able to bring the murderers to justice and In so doing develops complicity between the police, the gamblers and the hired murderers. Such a result would cause the great est airing of dirty political linen since the days of the Lexow committee and It Is believed would make Mr. Whit man the logical republican candidate for the governorship of the atate. In this connection It Is pointed out that the condition revealed by the Lexow Investigating committee which laid 1 Hofman.
