Tho bus was bound from the Federal Street Ferry nt Camden to Yorksblp Village and was filled to capacity with passengers. It has been doing n big jitney business for several months. Everything went all right until thc vehicle reached thc Morgan street crossing which i five miles below the Federal street ferry.

The watchman standing at the Mor gan street crossing waved the fated vehicle back to permit a southbound passenger train to pass. There arc three tracks ot thc crossing, the middle one reserved for express, trains and separated from the others by u low wooden fence. After tho southbound train passed by the driver of the bus started his mncblnc. Tlie watchman Insists he waved frantically nnd shouted to "go back " The rumbling of the southbound trnlu as It swept past may hnve drowned out the noise of the oncoming Vxpress, wit nesses say, nnd caused the driver to go ahead. "With u crash that was heard for blocks, the electric express tore the bus to pieces. Some of the victims nnd fragments of the bus were carried more than 301) feet, leaving n train of wounded strewn nlong the sides of the track. The passengers in the bus were hurled across the track nnd found in a heap ou the southbound station plat form. s The right ar mof the driver of the bus wns nit off and was found thirty feet nwa from where he was picked up, still alltc A child carried by one of the women in the bus was found 100 feet from the crossing, lying against the fence which separated the railroad tracks.

"The gates nro out of commission," he explained, "and for the last two days we hnve not been using them. "I saw the train coming nnd got out on the rondway with my red lamp.

The few de vout members of the slender congre gation who stayed to prayer after eve ning services had concluded In old St. Pnnl'u Church nt Vesey street and Rrondwny last night were startled to perceive a man In ministerial garb, carrying on umbrella and a sultcnse. hasten up thc center rtisle, straw hat in hand, nnd enter tho pew In which Oeorgo Washington wns wont to Bit nnd kneel. The clergyman mopped his brow, then knelt devoutly and began to pray aloud. Several women and men In other pews looked tip in alarm, then listened to the low -toned prayer. "O Heavenly Father I" exclaimed the kneeling minister, "bo my guide and assistance in this hour of stress. Tell me If it be true that I have made In famous the crossing over tho Delnwnre which our great patriot, tho Father of Ills uountrv. mate famous. Tell me and Insnlre me In the work. If It Is ins duty to condemn those who offend the ( fair name of womanhood and make It n byword "by their actions nt the place . which Thou has Intrusted to my care as one of Thy servants." Tho remainder of the clergyman's prayer wns uttcTCd in silence. 1'res ' ently he arose nnd left thc church, bow ing his bead as he stooped beneath thc crossed flags that decorated tho nocicnt pew. Tells Reason for Visit to St. Paul's A reporter who had witnessed the in cident asked the clergyman what was thc occasion of his vlt to St. Paul's. Pausing again to cool his forehead with a large handkerchief, he replied : "I thought I had escaped newspaper men, but thoy seem to follow me, even Into church. Since you hnve found me, 1 will tell you who I am. That mny explain the rest. My name is Freder ick Knpfman. I,nm the pastor of tiie Tltiisvillc Mcthottist Church, nt Tltus vllle, near Trenton, N. J., nnd I am now on my way to my sister's home In Ilrooklyn, having been advised by my physician to take a rest. The people of Titusville have nlmost broken down my health by their attitude toward my nt- tempt to reform the immoral conditions thut infest thc summer bnthing colony nt Washington's Crossing on thc Dela ware." The clergyman went on to tellho he had been nlmost mobbed by Tren ton citizens Saturday night when be arrived there from New York on his way to his church nt Titusville. He bnd sought police protection, lie ex plained, nnd was then turned over to Sheriff Rees, who agreed to get him safely to thc church for his Sundny sermon nnd back ngnin. He delivered his .sermon, nnd by nil accounts the Tltusvillo Methodist con gregation nnd some of the Washing ton Crossing colonists who were on hand to hear it, "got nn cirful." The clergyman denounced conditions in fnr clearer nnd more explicit terms thnn he used n week ago In his complaint to the villnge trustees nnd to tho Hopewell . township committee. The minister stood at the chancel rail of his little church and showed by actunl measurement how much or little some of the girls who frequent the bench at Washington's Crossing wear. And he told how ho had ob served men nt night sneaking from bungalow to bungalow, evidently bent ou no moral purpose, and avoiding the lights that might betray their identities. The worst of It nil is, In the min ister's opinion, that most of these young girls belong to good families, are weli educated nnd brought up, nnd hnve social standing. Their example is u prest. tlnneer to the community of re spectable and self-respecting working girls of Titusville and Trenton who go to tho Washington Crossing Reach for pleasure and innocent amusement Mind Pot to be shown, the minister says, "how for the devil can go when he has n woman in tow."

It is doubtful whether there was ever another so large, or sane, or happy.
