NO Death LIST
MANY OF THE VICTIMS OF THE
I'LL FATED TUsCANIA CAN
a NOT BE IDENTIFIED.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 9.-The
navy department announced that lat
est reports of the survivors of the
Tuscania show rs officers and 1,274
enlisted men of the army have been
landed at Buncrana Ireland; that 16
officers and seamen of the crew have
been landed at Larne, Ireland, and
that approximately $40 officers and
enlisted men of the army have been
landed at Islay, Scotland.
I'm addition" the department an
nouncement continues, approximate
ly 80 soldiers and members of the
crew are reported to be in hospitals.
Six members of the crew and ~ SOL
diers are in the military hospital at
Londonderry. Ten soldiers are in
Tough Foyle hospital at Londonderry
and nine soldiers and two OF the crew
are in the county infirmary at Lon
donderry."
War department officials are un-
able to account for the statement
made in news dispatches that blank
Identification tags were found on
the bodies of "A American soldiers
washed ashore.
Even IL the men had not been def
nitely assigned to an organization
the army regulations require that
the tag bear on one side the full
name Of the wearer When the sol
der is assigned to the number of his
regiment the designation OF his COM
pany and his individual number in
that company are supposed to be add
ed Immediately to the other side of
the tag.
The organization commander is
held responsible by military regula-
lions for the completion of these
tags, the purpose of which is to pre-
vent just such a situation as is de-
scribed in the dispatches from
abroad.
When the Truscania was struck by
the German torpedo the American
soldiers went calmly to their posi-
tions. AS they lined up on one side
OF the deck, with the crew, all Brit
ishers, on the other. the national an
thems Of the Anglo-American allies
were sung. The lack of panic facili-
tated the work OF the British destroy
ers. who braved danger by coming up
to the side of the sinking liner and
taking off the soldiers. The Tus-
cania remained afloat two hours.
Reports of some survivors that the
submarine fell a victim to the swift
vengeance OF the British destroyers
lack official confirmation. One Am
erican officer has related that the
U-boat attempted to sink the rescu-
ing destroyers, and that n pursued
the submarine and dropped depth
bombs. ~silencing ii probably for all
time.
Cable press dispatches say that o.
296 persons have been landed and are
being cared for In Irish villages and
cities.
No official story of the sinking has
reached the department and press
stories Of the cool behavior of the
troops, some of them partially train
ed boys. who lined the rail singing
national airs, have been read with
interest by army officers.
Reports that the British destroyer
which was conveying the Tuscania
pursued and sunk the submarine. also
lack confirmation, and the report oil
the British admiralty is eagerly
awaited.

To MAKE TRAMPS WORK.

Sioux Falls, Feb. 9.-The enact
ment of a law by the state legislature
which will be designed to mobilize
labor and make it unlawful for a ply
sically capable individual to be idle

dents of the north central portion of
the state. The movement for the en-
actment of such a law has just been
a%ugurated by the Mobridge Tribune.
While such an act of the legisla-
ture will affect a few resident of the
state who have means of support in

South Dakota and remain in compar-
alive idless until cold weather sets in
during the late fall months.
1T is proposed that the legislature
shall enact legislation which will en-
able the state and county authorities

Of the River Lys. The British have
advanced to the north of Hill 63 to
lie Rossignol.
The Germans are reported to be
working rapidly on their lines around
Armentieres, and in their hurry to
get the positions here prepared they
are even requiring French civilians to
work on the defenses. Repairs are
being made and concrete dugouts are
reported to be under construction.
1t Is quite likely the resistance
which has been developing here and
there along the line is made SO as to
give the Germans time to prepare
lines which they intend to try to hold
in the rear.

court wood. of which the British
occupy virtually one-half. runs

REPUBLICANS LIKELY TO WIN
MONDAYS MAINE ELECTION
Indications Are That G. O. p Senatorial Congressional ant
Cubernatorial Candidates Will Be Returned
in Pine Tree State

The Republicans have displayed very
little outward activity. and the Demo.
Gratis but a shade more. The Republican
argument is that the record Of the corr
gressional representatives in standing by
the Administration in every war move
and the like attitude of the Governor
and Legislature stand Of themselves as
suf1cient recommendation for reelection
OF the party's candidates. Many Demo
Gratis hopeful OF electing. at best, only
their gubernatorlal and Second District
congressional candidates. are outspoken
In argument that this Republican slogan
is trap sprung by National Chairman
Will H. Hayes to influence patriotic SEN
timent among Democrats. On the other
Rand. there are many leading Democrat !
whn have refused to get into the fight
this year because they argue that two
years hence Republicans will be asked
to retain President Wilson. and they
will wish to be consistent In their argu-
ment therefor as far as any action they
might take at this time would obtain.
