MORE FREE STATE SUCCESSES. MANY REBELS CAPTURED. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received Aug. 1, 5.5 pan. London, July 31. Free Staters captured Westmeath and a party of rebels, including Commander Larry Killeavey, author of a recent notorious order to shoot at sight all uniformed Free Staters. Others taken prisoner included some escapees from Dundalk Gaol. Rebels have been troublesome in Connemara, where they have been laying ingenious traps for Free Staters, hampering the latter’s movements and destroying com- 1 munications. The concentration of rebels at Kiimal- I lock has temporarily checked O’Duffy’s March on Cork; but as the town is now ■ surrounded on three sides by his troops, its fall is inevitable, leaving capture or | flight to the hills as the rebels’ only alternative. The Belfast commission sentenced to varying terms of penal servitude rebels convicted for being in possession of arms, ammunition and bombs. Nine were ordered floggings. • A SHOOTING AFFRAY, London. July 31. Mr. Boland, a member of the Dail Eireann, who is a colleague of Mr. de Valera, wa« dangerously ehot in Sherrie’s Hotel, Dublin. Mr. Bolland was shot while attempting to evade arrest. He was seriously wounded in the stomach.
