Rowan, relig- ious leader and self-styled prophetess, who is being sought as a conspirator in an alleged murder plot, declared today that they were no more able to explain her recent disappearance than the failure of her world end prophecy two years ago. A complaint charging Mrs. Rowan and two of her aldes with conspiracy with intent to commit murder was jssued yesterday as the result of an alleged attack upon Dr. Burt E. Full- mer, leader of an opposing church faction. Dr. J. F. Balzer and Miss Mary A. Wade, who were arrested at the scene of the purported attack, were named in the same charges. Efforts to locate Mrs. Rowan through members of her cult have been unavailing. Police reported she had disappeared from her home. The finding of her automobile, abandoned on the ocean highway near San Juan Capistrano was described by the au- thorities as a ruse. Says He Was Lured to Cabin. The conspiracy complaint was _is. sued after Fullmer reported he had been lured to cabin in a tourist automoblle ¢ leaten with a with a hypodermic needle. He tified Balzar and Miss Wade as his assailants and charged that the at tack was the result of his threats to “expose’”’ the activities of Mrs. Rowan and her followers. Police declared both Balzar and Miss ‘Wade admitted the attack and impli- cated Mrs. Rowan as the instigator. It was Mrs. Rowan, the officers were told, who brought the couple to the camp late Saturday night and then summoned Fullmer by telephone. Campers said they saw Mrs. Rowan near thg cabin a short time before the attack. Faction Qusted After Strife. Fullmer told police that factional strife has existel among the “Row- anites” for some time. were members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Because of Mrs. Rowan’s teachings she and her fol- lowers were ousted. They formed a church of their own and called it the Seventh-day Adventist Reformed Church. Mrs. Rowan had predicted the world would come to an end on Feb- ruary 5, 1925. As the appointed time passed and nothing happened Full- mer became skeptical and started an “investigation.” Since, the division both factions have been rushing to the courts with suits and counter suits.
