Knights of Pythias Involved to the
 Amount of $192, 1000.

Chicago, Oct. 25.-It developed this morning that the Knights of Pythias are involved to the extent of $192,- 900 in the Lexington hotel failure, which thus becomes a matter of in terest to scores O. thousands of per sons in Illinois alone. Attorney New mann, who appeared before Judge Dunne this morning to argue the mo- tion for the appointment of a receiv- CT for the insolvent hotel company, refrained from naming the organiza- tion, although he referred to it sev- era1 times in the course of his dis course as an insurance organization of the mutual benefit order. Its iden- tity was learned from other sources.
 If the securities held by the Knights are second mortgage bonds, as it was intimated they are, the loss may be a total one to the organization, as 1t is understood the company had no right by the terms under which the first mortgage bonds were issued to incur any additional bonded indebt- edneSS
