An Irish Port, Feb. 7.-—The bodies of 44 of the missing 101 victims of the Tuscania disaster were washed up today on the rocks fifteen miles from the scene of the torpedoing. All were Americans and their bodies were mutilated beyond recognition. A pathetic feature is that, although all the victims wore tags, no identification numbers had been put on them because these Americans had not as yet been assigned to definite army units. Therefore there is no way to identify them and they will be hurried in one grave.
