ESTIMATE OF Loss
NINETEEN OTHERS OF THE CREW
.PERISHED WHEN TUSCANIA
SANK-OVER ONE HUNDRED ARE
IN HOSPITALS.

WASHINGTON, February s.-With
but scant hope that additional surviv-
ors of the torpedoed liner Tuscania
will be found, latest compilations
show that 147 American soldiers lost
their lives Tuesday night off the
northern coast of Ireland. British
admiralty figures gives the total cas-
ualties as 166, the losses among the
crew and passengers being 19.
Trawlers have travelled over the
waters where the Tuscania went
down and have cruised along the
Irish coast without finding any trace
OF any men other than those already
reported rescued. The Tuscania's
survivors bureau in an Irish port
estimates the Americans missing at
101. Official reports on the circum-
stances surrounding the sinking of the
liner by a German submarine have
not yet been received at Washington.
In Irish seaport towns the Ameri-
cans have been received wholeheart-
edly by the populace and everything
possible has been done for their COM
fort. Two large detachments of the
soldiers, aggregating more than 1.700
men, are on the way to concentra
ton camp in northern Ireland whence
after a period of rest, they will go to
their original destination, despite the
U-boat efforts.
Approximately 100 American sol
diers are in hospitals in Irish towns

HOOVER RULES On
FIT TY-F|FTY FLOUR
RULE FOR FARMERS
PRODUCERS WHO SATISFY GRO
GER CONCERNING SUPPLY OF
CEREALS ON HAND MAY GET
70 OF NORMAL SUPPLY.

WASHINGON, D. c.. Feb. g.
Chairman Lever OF the house agricul-
ture committee, today requested Her
bet Hoover, federal food administra-
tor to interpret the ''fifty-fifty" flour
purchase rule of the food administers
ton and tonight announced Hooyer's
ruling, which clears the way for farm
ers and cereal producers to secure am
pie -four supplies, without the neces'
sity of purchasing additional supplies
of cereals.
Mr.. Hoover, in his reply to Chair
man Levers interrogation says that
before farmers can secure -four ex-
cept under the figty-ffty rule, they
must first satisfy their grocer that
they have on hand thirty days sup
ply of other substitute cereals, and
under such circumstances the grocer
is then authorized to sell them not
more than 70@o of a normal thirty
days supply of wheat -four" This, APP
parently, take the matter of -four sales
to farmers out of the hands of local
food administrators altogether, and
leaves merchants free to sell to farm
ers whenever they are satisfied such
farmers have on hand a thirty days
supply of substitute cereals.

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES IN
FRANCE, February 9-The armies Of
the German crown prince before Ver-

costly defeats in seven vain raids on
French positions on both sides OF the
Meuse. Although large bodies OF
troops were employed at times, not a
single permanent advantage has been
gained.
On February the Germans made
three separate assaults on the Cau-
rjeres wood, but were hurled back with
heavy losses. North of Hill 334 on
February 8 five German columns adj
vanced in q thick fog after a heavy
preliminary bombardment and sue
ceeded in entering the French front
line out in vigorous hand to hand
fighting and again suffered severely.
A Baden division, preceded By shock
units. assaulted the French line at the
same place on February 4. They
gained a footing in the trenches for a
few minutes and then were chased
off after uselessly sacrificing many
lives and leaving more prisoners. On
February 6 in the vicinity of Fosses
wood another attack was made at
dawn after short and sharp artillery
preparatin by Hanoverian troops and
g relief division.
They succeeded in reaching the
French barbed wire and in occupying
an element OF the French positions
They were driven out almost immedi-
ately and pursued by the French,
leaving many dead and number of
captured.
