(Received 30, 11.30 a.m.) LONDON,. July 29. A systematic inquiry has been begun by Belfast police and border authorities into the .origin of the outrages in Ireland. Over a dozen men are already in eustody, There was a state of tension and uneasxness in Belfast all night, but the only yiolence was the holding up of a constable, at Deville Park by six men, Who appropriated his revolver. Two suspeets have beexx arrested. The Paily Telegraph 's Dublin correspondent says that the hor&er outrages ara expected to result in the Free State Government instituting a new purge of the I.R.A. Most of the leaders were ixnprisoned by special tribunals during the Cosgrave and De Yalera regimes, for which reason the Government was surprised that an active organisation apparently still exists. The Government is exp6cted to cooperate with the Ulster authorities in an effiort finally to uproot political crime.
