BORDER OUTRAGES
A REPUBLICAN PURGE. FREE STATE ACTION LIKELY. CO-OPERATION WITH ULSTER. (United Prass Association —Copyright.) (Received This Day, 9.5 a.m.) LONDON, July 29. The Daily Telegraph’s” Dublin correspondent says that the border outrages are expected to result in the Free State Government instituting a new purge of the Irish Republican Army. Most of the leaders were imprisoned by special tribunals during the Cosgrave and De Valera, regimes, for which reason the Government is surprised that an active organisation apparently still exists. The Government is expected to co-operate with the authorities in Ulster in an effort finally to uproot political crime. SYSTEMATIC INQUIRIES BEGIN. . (Received This Day, 9.15 a.m.) LONDON, July 29. A systematic inquiry has begun by the Belfast Police and border authorities into the origin of the outrages. More than a dozen men are already in custody. There was a state of tension and uneasiness in Belfast all night long, but the only violence was tbei hold-up of a constable at Deville Park, by six men who appropriated his revolver. Two suspects have been arrested.
