Self -Styled Archbishoy of
"New Thought" Will Be
Prosecuted
San Francisco, Oct. 1. Dr. Newo
Ncwi New, self-styled "archbishop" of;
the new thought church, teacher of new '
thought science, advocate of celibaey ,
and believer in physical immortality, ;
was arrested by federal officers at sun
rise today in his apartments, charged
with using the I'nited States mails in a
scheme to defraud.
Marie Tully Graham, found in his
apartments when he was arrested, was
served with a subpoena as a witness
nguinst him.
United States District Attorney John
W. Preston, who brought the compluint
after weeks of investigation, charges
that Dr. Xew, whose real name is be
lieved to be John Fair, has amassed
thousands of dollars through the gulli
bility of women.
Dr. New has a booth at the exposi
tion, where he sells copies of his book.
Many have registered in his new
thought university nt $100 per course.
Celibacy ia advocated by Dr. New
and his cult, but the complaint drawn
against him charges that "in truth, lie
is doing those things which appeal only
to the baser nature of mankind."
Among these things, the complnint re
cites "gormandizing, drinking alcoholic
liquors to excess and using profane
language."
Postal Inspector Madera, who has
worked up most of the evidence against
Dr. New, has letters written to per
sons in nil parte of the country. Nearly
all of them mention the receipt of if.1),
$10 or $1110 as the correspondent bought
the book, the abridged "course" or a
"scholarship" in the new thought uni
versity. The first information of the alleged
fraudulent character of Dr. New 's
"church" was brought to the federal
authorities by-Mrs. M. L. Clare, who is
said
to come from Cincinnati, 'and who
wed Dr. New from the middle west

to the coast two years ago.

complaint. "This is a frame-up against

newspaper men. "I shall be able
answer everything against me."

turned here she found that the d net or

injo.'inunt.
Among the charges against New was
that ho fraudulently pretended "that
by a course of righteous conduct and
dieting one may attain immortality in
this world." To this end, said the
complaint, New pretended he was U5
years old a bright and shining ex-

Moreover, New, it is charged, profess
