BALTIMORE, September go
A disastrous fire which broke out
at o:45 o'clock this morning at the
Red c Oil Works, in HighlandtoWn,
inst outside of Baltimore, now
threatens the destruction OF that
place. The entire plant, which COW
ers eight blocks, is blazing, and
burning oil is running down the
cutters of the town, communicat-
ing the flames to stores and resi-
dences. The origin of the fire is
mystery. All of the county engines
in the vicinity, as well as several OF
the city engines, are at work, but
they seem powerless to cope with
the raging flames. The smoke from
the burning oil is SO thick and suf-
locating that it is as much as life is
worth to get into it.
