Charles, I have a response to this comment made by you: "Cross and crown was a lutherian, an adventist, a catholic, a knight templar symbol, why not a russelites's symbol too. Are the lutherian, the adventist, the catholic, the knight templar and the bible's student all freemason?"
As a matter of fact, the freemasons have admitedly infiltrated MANY organizations and religions, including those you mention. So it could be that these symbols are found in the religious literature to identify the author as a freemason. And it could also be that Russell was a freemason and was identifying his affiliation in his literature. I know that the Catholic Church has been openly targeted by the Masons. In fact, the RCC views freemasonry as an enemy, yet there are many priests, bishops and even popes who have been/are freemasons. There is much literature on this subject available, some of it written by former masons, which discusses the goal of freemasons to infiltrate and destroy the RCC.
I believe it is not a far fetch of the imagination that Russell was part of the long-standing goal of the freemasons to destroy the RCC. Just look at the fact that for its 120+ year history, the RCC has been the single most attacked organization by the WTS. The WTS has spread deceitful propaganda full of half-truths and lies about the Catholic Church for its entire history. This in itself is a trademark of freemasonry.
Perhaps we will never have CONCRETE evidence to prove that Russell was a full blown authentic member of the freemasonry organization. But WE DO HAVE evidence that he at the very least supported the same ideals (uhummm) as the freemasons. Admittedly, the evidence is lacking that he formally belonged to the group.
