Dublin, July 24.-National army
troops have gained fresh victory in
west Ireland by capturing Ballyhau-
mis-, county Mayo, from the Repub-
lican irregulars, it was announced
today.
The Free State triumph in the cap
ture of Limerick was swiftly follow
ed by successes in the surrounding
district. A number of minor positions
in this area have been added to the
list of Free State victories according
to today's official bulletin.
The total number of casualties in
the Limerick fighting has not been
accurately estimated, although it is
known that at least fifteen of the ma
tional troops we're killed and 81
wounded. 1t is generally believed that
at least thirty of the irregulars lost
their lives. The total number of cas-
ualties suffered by Free State forces
during the capture of Waterford
was nine killed and nineteen wound

INSURGENTS BURN BARRACKS

London, July 24.-Unconfirmed re-
ports received in London today said
the Irish irregular forces were re-
treating with all speed into the Gal
tee and Knockmealdown mountains.
harassed by Free State troops who
are pressing them hard and prevent
ing them from concentrating for re-
sistance. VI.
A Waterford dispatch to the Daily
Express says the irregulars have
burned the barracks at Clonmel and
Tipperary, which had long been held
as garrisons and it is believed the
national army forces have occupied
these places. This however is not
claimed in any official report.
The express correspondent says it
is believed the pressure being exert
ed by the national troops upon both
flanks of the Republicans will COM
pei them to make stand, perhaps
their last, in these mountains. Some
of the other correspondents doubt
whether they will be able to make a
stand anywhere, although they do not
draw the conclusion that an early
end of resistance can be expected.
The various views however, obvious
ly are largely speculative, since none
of them can be verified except by the
general turn of events. er
