NEW INDICTMENT SOUGHT Middle-Aged Woman Who Was Begged to Invest Coin in Weird Set's Teachings Says High Priest Preyed Tpon Her Sex. NEW YORK. Pec. 24. (Special.) Through recent disclosures by two ac tresses, the District Attorney's office xpects to hav Oom, the omnipotent, head of the Tankrlt cult and the "New College of Sanskrit." arrested again In connection with rhars-es of ImmoralltT I and fraud in his aliened religious ex I erclses. held In the "temple." some times known as 'Xhe house of mys tery" at Hi West Seventy-eighth treet. Oom was arrested In the Spring of 110 on complaint of Zella Hopp anf Gertrude Leo, but the women disap peered when the case was due for trial and Oom's attorney secured a dismissal of the Indictment returned against him by the grand Jury. Assistant District Attorney Smith has Miss Hopp under surveillance and may have her tell her story anew to the grand Jury and supplement It with the disclosures of the two young stage women, in an effort to secure another Indictment against Oom. Wsomb Bare Pecret. In addition. Assistant District Attor ney Smfth ha a lengthy statement from a middle-aged woman who de clares she was duped by Oom. Her name Is withheld by Mr. Smith, who has given out her statement- It Is In part as follows: "It was Oom's custom to give thos who entered the Inner or esoteric cir cle new names. He gav men's namea to the women. There was, for In stance, a large, stout, blond English woman who had gone as far as wo men could go Into the Inner circle with Its orgies of moaning and screaming and dancing and utter abandon. She was known under the name of 'Ben.' She told me she had paid Oom $1000 for the privilege of being; admitted to the third degree of the cult. "There were In all seven degrees. The last four were reserved for men. The Tankrlt cult did not admit the equality of women. Only a man could become a guru a full-fledged priest or exponent of the attempted revival of the ancient Hittite beliefs and rites with all which that Implies. "I was first attracted to Oom' place by the advertisements in the newspa pers announcing lectures on subjects of Oriental philojophy and Instruction In the- Sanskrit language. Oom him self never gave any lectures. Several of the swaml who spoke there were interesting. Maay Woraea Attracted. "An admission fee of a quarter was charged to attend the lectures. There would be audiences numbering from about SO down to six. The majority of the strangers attracted were wo men about an even division of middle-aged and young women. Oom urged me to learn the mysteries of the Tankrlt faith to the third degree, say ing this could be accomplished by the payment of $500 S100 down and the remainder In such payments and such time as I found convenient. I told him I could not afford to pay such a sum. He looked at several diamond rings on my hands and said he was surprised. I told Mm that I didn't even think I could afford th quarter admission fee to the lectures. He told me that thereafter I need not pay ad mission, but urged me to pay $500 to be admitted Into a knowledge of the ecret practice of th aect. He as sured me that within four months I would possess knowledge with which I could attract pupils and earn aa much again as the price I paid. "After the lectures, when the stranger were gone, Oom and 'Kay,' one of his disciples, another disciple named Parrlsh and Elinor Norton, or 'Jack.' as she was known to the eso teric circles, and the young girl, Dora Leeds, who, 1 believe was sometimes called 'Willi,' and sometimes other women and men would remain until all hours of the night. There was an artist who had a studio In the same building, who came to the meetings, but 1 do not think he was of the 'In side circle.' Girl Oosa'a Companions. " 'Jack' and 'Ben' and 'Willie' were great friends. Miss Norton is about 25 and Miss Leeds not more than 18, I should say. They are the two girls w4io live with him In his flat at No. 216 West Eighteenth street. VI knew Oom first as Homer S. Leeds, but later 'Jack' told me that ha was none other than the Omnipotent Oom of the Seventy-elghth-street 'house of mystery' scandal. I was told that Miss Leeds was a sister of Oom, and again that she was his daughter. It Is hard to believe she is either. She Is rather too old to lie his daughter, and she bears not the slightest resem blance to htm. He has very black hair, a long nose and dark, sallow counten ance and Is very thin and tall. She has large eyes, a very fair complexion and golden hair. She seems utterly In his power. She Is alive to his slight est gesture: her eyes are constantly on him and they have in them that peculiar, halt-staring, balf-dased ex pression of the hypnotized. "1 think Ben,' the blonde English woman, was his 'richest graft.' " UTAH SLAYER ACQUITTED r 1 1 1 r u Law of State Applies When Home Is Broken Up. OGDEN. Utah. Dec. 24.

"Ninety-Three" The Story of a Famous Name and How It Originated The foremost dermatologist -n France Dr. Sabourand, of Paria, and Professor Unna, Hamburg, Germany, discovered that a microbe caused baldness. To prove their theory. Dr. Sabourand in fected a guinea pig with some of thesa microbes and In a comparatively short time the animal was denuded of ever) hair that was on Its body. Some eminent histologista and chem ists were employed by the United Drug Co.. Boston, Mass., to find the means of destroying these microbes and a remedy that would create a new growth, of hair where the hair roots had not been entirely destroyed. After months of study, experiments lng and research work, they dlscovs ered what they claimed would do what was demanded. To unqu- jtlonably prove, their theory. 100 leading druggists, lo cated in as many different cities, were requested to each furnkih the name of a responsible person suffering from fall ing hair and baldness. Each of thesa 100 persons was furnished three bottlea of the preparation with a request ta give lt'a thorough trial and report re- suits. Five of these people failed to report. Two declared that they had been bald, for years; that their hair follicles had long been closed, and their scalps war smooth and glossy. Ninety-three of the 100 sent In en thusiastic reports, stated that they were delighted with the hair-restoring quali ties of the preparation, and expressed, sincere thanks for the wonderful bene fits brought about by its use. In com memoration of this, the new prepara tion was named Rexall "93" Hair Tonic.
