New York, The Sun, Tuesday, June 18,1918

DETECTIVES RAID A MYSTICAL CULT

H. Spencer Lewis, Leader of Rosaecrucians, Arrested Lily Langtry Home.

He is Said Also to Have Suggested Means of Evading Draft.

Three score or more men and women of varying ages

-the majority of the men within the draft age- were

seated last night in parallel rows in a room on an

upper floor of what was the old Lily Langtry home, and

before that the Josie Mansfield residence, at 361 West

Twenty-third street.

Any one who had ever been received in that room when the Jersey Lily was the chatelaine and who was

there last night would have been impressed with the

changes that have taken place since. They have been

peculiarly impressed with the furnishings that were in

evidence last night when Detective Joseph Russo and

four or five other men from the District Attorney's

office entered. But more about the detectives later.

About 9 o'clock sixty or seventy men and women were

assembled in what was once Mrs. Langtry's drawing

room. From the front the old place would give the

impression of a well appointed private residence or

club. The windows were shaded and the iron fence that fronts the place had just received a new coat of

paint. It was almost a place of distinction and

soldiers and sailors who were strangers in New York

looked at it while passing and inquired of one another

what it was. An inconspicuous group of four or five men

at a convenient corner were also watching the place,

but were not so ignorant of its character.

Scene in Drawing RoomInside, in the drawing room, were assembled the

members of the New York branch of the so-called

American Rosicrucians. A feeble light from three

candles on a triangular altar in the centre of the room

was the only illumination. On a raised dais at one

end, clad in all the robes of his office as grand

master and imperator of the order in America, Brother

H. Spencer Lewis, F.R.C., whatever that means, was

giving the regular weekly lecture to the members.

At the other end of the room in the somber setting



of a cheap black screen stood a five foot wooden

cross, with a wreath of roses at its base. The

furnishings were of the cheapest, and the floor was

uncovered except for a layer of dust. An unprotected

heating flue gaped in the middle of the floor; plaster

was hanging from the walls and ceiling, and the desk

from which the Grand Imperator was delivering his lecture on the alchemy of life was of the cheapest

unvarnished pine.

Across the entrance to the room that once boasted

of double sliding doors there hung a cheap orange

colored curtain, through which the light from the

three candles softly filtered to the hall without.

Downstairs one or two members, to whom the ceremony in

the room above was no mystery, occupied desks and were

busy going through card index and classifying

applications for membership.

Then the officers came and in a moment the whole

place was in a tumult. Detective Russo with his aids entered and were on the top floor before the

bewildered Rosecrucians in the business office knew

what was coming off. A man was placed at the door, and

Detective Russo, thrusting aside the cheap orange

colored curtains, stepped into the dimly lighted lodge

room, walked to the dais and announced to the

assembled members that everybody in the room was under

arrest.

The Imperator attempted to expostulate but was told

to keep quiet and prepare to go to headquarters. He

quickly divested himself of his robes of office while

his followers wondered what is was all about and while other detectives went to phone for a patrol wagon.

Lights Show Queer SceneThe Grand Imperator was in the midst of an

interpretation and delineation of some of the occult

mysteries in the unraveling of which he is regarded by

his followers as a seer, when he was so rudely

interrupted. When the lights went up a queer scene

greeted the officers' eyes. The assembled men and

women who had been absorbing the words of wisdom from

the lips of the seer presented and odd picture in the

dilapidated room, that was not only shorn of its once

elaborate furnishings, but which showed unmistakable

evidences of long neglect.

Most of the people in the room were of German,

Scandinavian or Russian extraction. Most of the men

were within the draft age, although there were several

older ones in the group. Several of the women were

well dressed and gave evidence of education and



culture. Some of them replied to the questions of the

detectives in an unmistakable foreign accent. But all

of them expressed the greatest concern in what was to

befall the Grand Imperator.

After the detectives had questioned them and

served several with subpoenas two or three went to

Police Headquarters to await the arrival of Lewis.Others went to a nearby restaurant to await

developments. Meantime with the appearance of a police

patrol wagon a crowd of several thousand gathered in

Twenty-third street curious to know whether it was

Assistant District Attorney Jim Smith instituting a

Monday night raid by way of change, or what kind of an

affair was being staged.

Bond Fraud ChargedThe raid followed information that for several

weeks has had the attention of the District Attorney's

interest in the case comes through the allegation that Lewis and his associates in the so-called American

Rosae Crucis were selling fraudulent 6 per cent gold

bonds.

The interest of the Federal authorities is in the

allegation that Lewis and his associates were

soliciting membership in the order on the

representation that such membership automatically

exempted men from the draft and gave them a legitimate

right to profess conscientious scruples against war.

The interest of the Masonic officials was aroused by

the representations of Lewis that he was a Mason.

Lewis is not a Mason. But the first question he asked Detective Russo when he appeared on the scene

last night was, "Are you a Mason?"

According to the story of the career of Lewis and

his attempt to organize his American Rosae Crucis, as

it was told to a reporter for THE SUN last night, the

movement has made headway. There have been several

branches of the so-called order established in Western

cities, but through the instrumentality of men who

were watching his movements attempts in other places

failed.

In New York City the affairs of the cult seemed to

reach a crisis last Friday night. A.B.Brassard,

Lewis’s former secretary, and the man who finally gave

the District Attorney the information on which he

acted last night, became suspicious of the genuineness

of the 6 percent bonds that Lewis sold to prospective

members.

Brassard and some of his fellow members went to the

Twenty-third street headquarters Friday night and



accused Lewis in the presence of several other members

of making suggestions by which men of draft age could

get exemption. Brassard's signature appears on some of

the bonds that Lewis sold. On Friday night, according

to the story, he accused Lewis of certain

irregularities, including the violation of another

Federal statute.

Lewis Asked for ProofIt is said that Lewis invited Brassard to return on

Saturday night with proof of the charges he made.

Brassard accepted the invitation, and it is said,

presented Lewis with documentary proof of the alleged

irregularities and demanded his withdrawal as head of

the Rosaecrucian order, whereupon ...carding to

Brassard's story. Lewis tore the documents up and

challenged Brassard to go ahead if he wanted to in the

face of what Lewis thought was destroyed evidence.

Brassard claims to have kept originals of the documents in question and to have handed Lewis only

copies.

Another failure of the case, and the one that is

most interesting the Federal authorities, is the

statement that at a recent meeting of the members of

the organization Lewis is said to have addressed his

disciples as follows:

"I hold in my hand a letter from president Wilson

guaranteeing exemption from the draft to members of

the Rosaecrucian Order in America."

At the headquarters of Local Board 158, where it

was said certain of Lewis's followers had claimed exemption on the ground of membership in the order,

officials were not able to trace the records of any

such cases without the names although the three

members of the board said they recollected that such

claims had been advanced.

Initiation Fee and DuesApart from the sale of bonds, one of which a

former member of the organization showed to a SUN

reporter last night declaring at the same time that

she paid $100 for it and to which was attached a

receipt signed by one L. Lawrence, as secretary of the

organization, new members were required to pay an

initiation fee of $5 or $10 and member dues of $1.

The organization is also said to have published a

secret paper called the "Cromaat," the letters of

which backwards are the first letters of the title the

cult has assumed - The Ancient and Mystical Order (of)

Rosae Crucis. Another monthly magazine called "The



American Rosae Crucis," carries on the first page the

names of a number of associate editors in various

parts of the world. These, it is represented, make up

the Supreme World Council of the order.

Among the dozen or more are such names as these:

Emanuel S. Camilleri, Upper Egypt; Prof. C. Magala

Desa, Bombay; Mohamed Ismail, I.G.O.H., Ceylon; Sir N. Irnathellickerjo Lemindar, Bengal; Lady Brooks,

Shangai, China; Sir William Samuel Grant, Natal, East

Africa; Lady Florence Burgess, London, England;

Raynaud E. de Belcastle-Ligne, Toulouse, France, and

several others.

A more definite address is not given in the copy of

the magazine, but THE SUN reporter yesterday saw a

dozen of more such letters that had been sent to

addresses furnished by a former member of Lewis's

organization, all of which came back with the notation

"No such person known," or "No such address."



The Sun, New York, Wednesday, June, 1918

GRAND IMPERATOR GRIEVED AT ARREST

SPENT NIGHT IN A CELL

Cult Leader asserts Purpose of Organization Had No Taint of Money Getting.

Half a dozen detectives attached to the District: Attorney's office were examining effects,

meaning sateen sashes, robes, and other regalia - taken in the raid of the headquarters of the so-

called American Order of the Rosae Crucis. While they were still going over the papers, books

and other paraphernalia of various kinds collected in the raid that was described exclusively in

THE SUN yesterday, H. Spencer Lewis, who had been variously described as the main works,

the grand imperator, the most perfect master profundis and illustrious brother of the illuminati o f

the world, was explaining THE SUN

that his arrest, detention and examination taken altogether comprised one of the greatest outrages

ever perpetrated upon a real and regular Rosae Crucian.

Grand Imperator Lewis was arrested on Monday night in a spectacular raid on the headquarters

of his organization in the old Lily Langtry house at 361 West Twenty-third street. Two or three

dozen of his followers tried to get bail, but the Grand Imperator had to spend the night in a cell.

Gold Bonds Figure in Charge

Lewis was arraigned yesterday in Jefferson Market Court before Magistrate Blau on a short

affidavit sworn to by Detective-Lieutenant Joseph Russo, alleging suspicion of larceny of money

through the sale o f bonds o f the so-called American Order of the Rosae Crucis. Lewis was later

released under $5,000 for examination to-morrow.

Lewis gave his name as Harvey S. Lewis, although he is known among the members of his cult

as H. Spencer Lewis. The charge against him is based on statements o f Miss Elizabeth Meeker,

of 70 Fifth Avenue, who at one time was a member of Lewis' organization, and who, when the

financial affairs of the so-called order were somewhat strained, declares that she handed over a

hundred-dollar bill, subsequently receiving one of the 6 per cent gold bonds of the Ancient

Mystic Order of Rosae Crucis.



Miss Meeker explained yesterday that her contribution had been given without solicitation in

October of 1916, that she received the bond with a receipt for the money paid, and that she had

also received $6 interest. She admitted, however, that after attending several meetings of the

organization she felt compelled to withdraw as a member.

From his home in Flushing last night Lewis told a reporter for THE SUN that at no time hadhis organization - the Ancient and Mystical Order of the Rosae Crucis - ever claimed to be

operating as a branch of the Rosae Crucis organization in France. "We have never claimed to

hold any warrant, charter, patent or authority from any foreign country," he said over the

telephone.

Studies of the Occult

The allegations against Lewis are that he has disposed of several thousand dollars' worth of

bonds upon the representation that his organization was a recognized branch of a world-wide

institution devoted to studies of the occult.

Among the papers seized in Lewis' desk on Monday night is a piece of parchment headed

"Pronunziamento R.F.R.C. No. 9 8 7 , 6 0 1 The document is adorned with a number of crude

seals, dated Toulouse, France, September 20, 1916, and signed by one Jean Jordain. After the

signature follow a series o f hieroglyphics. In the body of the document addressed to Le

Secretaire General, Thor Kiimalehto, appears the announcement that a separate jurisdiction o f

the Rosae Crucis has been established in America under the supreme Pontiff High Ancient

Shekah El Moria Ra of Memphis and that the official seal is being forwarded to the Most Perfect

Master Profundis H. Spencer Lewis at New York.

Honors for American Master

In the February, 1916, number of the American Rosae Crucis, which is described on the first

page as a monthly magazine devoted to science, philosophy and religion, a picture of Lewis in

his robes of office appears, and in reference to him is this statement:

"But in 1909 our Master journeyed to France and England to complete his preparation for the

Rosaecrucian work - which always seemed to be his goal - and he was given several honors and

titles by the French R.C. order, by agreement with the supreme council in France and Egypt the

permission, long sought by scientists and earnest philosophical students was given unto our

Master to establish the R. C. Order in America in the year 1915."

When he was arraigned in court yesterday Mark Ellison, counsel for Lewis, declared that the

District Attorney had produced no proof to show that Lewis ever received a dollar in cash for the

bonds he is alleged to have sold.
