BEATING THE REBELS. CLEARING COUNTY CORK. Received Oct. 3, 8.10 p.m. London, Oct. 2. Free Staters have practically cleared County Cork of rebels, who are retreati.ig towards the Kerry border. Ballyvourney, the rebels’ last stronghold in West Cork, is surrounded and its fall is imminent. HUNT FOR DE VALERA. London, Oct. 2. Messrs, de Valera and Childers are now hunted men. Their peace proposals are well designed to save, not only their faces, but their fives. Mr. Mulcahy is showing determination in stamping out the rebellion. It is humorously significant of the new situation that the old-time Dublin placards “Up de Valera; up Republic” have been replaced for “Fight fair Mulcahy; call off your murder gang.”
