The Tuscania, it was announced, carried 119 United States army ofli-
tg and iVM men. ui tnese, it omcers ana imi men were rcpiiricu

leers saved and decrease the number of men, it was declared.
The Tuscania floated for nearly an hour after she was torpedoed. It
kg stated mat "Americans aDoarn oincr csscis vvimcssca inc iurpc-

The fact the Tuscania remained afloat for a considerable period after
attack is believed to account for the large number of lives sacd.

krthips or was one of an armada of transports carrying American troops.

The Tuscania, warned by another csscl that had spotted the torpedo,
a in the act ol turning wncn inc missne sirucK, an cjc-wiiness
clared today.
The eye-witness, a passenger on one of the crscIs near the transport.
Hd the captain of his uhlp saw the wake of the torpedo and diverted
i course of his own steamer successfully.
The Tuscania was signaled: "Torpedo coming! Dodge!"
the transport started to turn, but was caught broadside, not hating
time to swerve into the clear.
The Tuscania was hit a little astern of amidships.
Most of the passengers on board the other es,scl were not aware of
hat happened. They spent a merry evening and continued their customary
Itcrtainmcnts.
Another eve-witness stated that the Tuscania sank' within forty-eight
mules after she was struck.
DESTROYERS AND OTHER BOATS PICKED OP SURVIVORS
He said that destroyers and other vessels had surrounded her, picking
the sun Ivors from the sea and from lifeboats.
lie said that it was Tuesday evening when the Tuscania was struck,
heard two explosions, the latter apparently caused by the explosion
the boiler. He said he saw the Tuscania's lights, which previously
Id been darkened, suddenly flash on; that the Tuscania sent up rockets,
rned red flares and that her lights then went out.
Survivors arriving at a Scottish port said that trouble in lowering
: lifeboats, owing to the list of the damaged transport, caused a number
casualties.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.
A complete report dealing with the attack on the transport Tuscania,
Irrjing American troops to Franve via Great Britain, has been
cetved by the Navy Department. It will not be made public at this
ne. It is understood, however, that the report shows that the Tuscania,
I British vessel, was under the direction of the British Admiralty when
n and was under convoy of British destroyers. The excellent work of
: destroyers is declared to have been directly responsible for the com
batively small casualty list.
Naval officials refused to comment on the loss of the Tuscania. They
tie it plain, however, that the vessel was sunk, thus disposing of the
irlier reports that she might still be afloat. They also said that they
laced no reliance in rumors that a floating mine and not a submarine
as responsible for the loss of the vessel. Asked directly about whether
le convoy was entirely British, officials would not reply, holding that
would be injudicious to discuss the convoy question in any way.
up to 1:45 this afternoon the army was still without any positive
jtures of the American lives lost. British Admiralty reports received by
fcble said 168 American officers and men had been lost. The official
jures here made the number 231 if a cabled list of thirty sunivors landed
Scotland was not included in the original list prepared. War and
ivy Department officials, however, said they were very hopeful that
m British Admiralty figures were accurate and that een this, number
Mid be further reduced when all of the saved had reported.
'A brief message from Admiral Sims at London early today said
It was believed" that the Tuscania was still afloat. He mentioned nothing
a convoy, but navy officials said either American or British destroyers
td conveyed her. )
Six hundred survivors of the transport Tuscania have been landed
Lame, Ireland, War Department dispatches this morning announced.
Names of 30 survivors, landed at Fort Ellen, Islay, Scotland, also
lere forwarded.
