Father Mechler said he knew OF the ex-
istence OF the order of Satanists or Lucif-
erians. He said he had heard that a
branch of the order existed In this coun-
try, but he was not able to determine
whether devil worshippers. as they are
called, were the perpetrators Of the sacri-
lege In his church. Detectives employed
on the case have as yet gained ho trace
