SUEZ CANAL.
Statement Issued in Paris by the
Company.

PARIS. September 3O.-The Suez Canal
Company today made public the following
statement:
The soundings taken after the blowing
up OF the British steamer Chatham show
that the channel has filled in to a depth of
hve meters across the entire width for
distance of eighty meters. 1t seems that
the debris projected on the western side can
be removed with shears without having re-
course to explosives. Draggings establish
that the channel is entirely free at the
north from kilometer 1S and at the south
from kliometer 10. We expect day transit
to be resumed October at the latest

Attracted Much Attention.

The great volume of smoke attracted at
tention In all parts of the city. From every
high window. from the tops of office build
ings and other points of vantage crowds of
spectators viewed the huge black column
which rose symmetrcally to an unusual
height and then spread out toward the
north.
- The rapidity with which the fire gained
headway caused alarm throughout the east
ern suburbs Persons living near the Red
c Oil Company's plant began CARRYING their
effects from their homes, and in short
while general exodus was in progress
The tremendous volume of smoke could
be seen from all over Baltimore and the
roofs OF many of the high buildings were
covered with spectators.
The suffocating smoke completely envci-
oped Bay View Asylum. which is some dis
tance east of the site of the oil plant. The
dense clouds were sitting, and were so
thick as 10 cut of any view of the flames.
-Four OF the city fire engines and truck
were rushed to the scene and aided the
county engines.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, Md, September 30.-A fu-
rous conhagration resulting from a fire
which started in the Red c oil works at
Highlandtown at 9:45 o'clock this morning
row threatens the destruction of the entire
town.
The plant of the Red Oil Company, at
Highlandtown, bounded by Sth and 9th and
Cough and Bank streets, has been entirely
destroyed. 1t consisted of number of
tanks, distributing shed, etc. Eight build
ings on the north side of Eastern avenue,
including residences, stores and saloons,
were burned down.
Sherwood Bros. plant, grease and lubri-
eating oils, at the corner of Bank and Sth
streets, was totally destroyed, with loss
of $780, 600.
Several firemen have been overcome by
the smoke, which is greatly hampering the
work of the fire fighters
A trolley car is blamed as the cause of
the fire Some oil was being transferred
street. and sparks from a passing trolley
car falling the leaking oil, it is said,
caused an explosion of the tank car,
which started the fire. Three horses attached
to the tank wagon were killed by the ex-
plosion. As soon as the extent of the fire
became known two engines were rushed
from this city, and those on guard at build
ings in the neighborhood of the blaze be-
lieved that the flames could be checked. A
row of houses on Eastern avenue was at
that time within dangerous proximity of
the fire.

FROM SAME BOX
Where the Foods Come From.

Look here waiter, honest now, don't you dip every one of these fiaked breakfast foods out of the same box?" We'll, yes, boss, we dug, all 'cept Grape-Nuts, cause that don't look like the others and people know 'zackly what Grape-Nuts looks like. But there's bout a dozen different ones named on the bill of fare and they are all thin rolled flakes so it don't make any difference which one man calls for we just take out the order from one box
 This talk led to an investigation. Dozens Of factories sprung up about three years ago making various kinds of breakfast foods, seeking to take the business of the original prepared breakfast food - Grape-Nuts. These concerns after precarious existence, nearly all failed, leaving thousands of boxes of their foods in mills and ware houses. These were in several instan- ces bought up for a song by specula- tors and sold out to grocers and hotels for little or nothing. The process of working off this old stock has been slow. One will see the names on menus of f1aked foods that went out of bus mess a year and a half or two years ago. In a few cases where the aban- doned factories have been bought up, there is an effort to resuscitate the de- funct, and by copying the style of ad- vertfsing of Grape-Nuts seek to inf1u- ence people to purchase. But the public has been educated to the fact that all these thin haked foods are sim- ply soaked wheat or oats rolled thin and dried out and packed They are not prepared like Grape-Nuts, in which the thorough baking and other opera tions which turn the starch part of the wheat and barley into sugar, occupy many hours and result in food so digestible that small infants thrive on it, while it also contains the selected clements of Phosphate of Potash and Albumen that unite in the body to pro- duce the soft gray substance in brain and nerve centres. There's a reason for Grape-Nuts, and there have been many limitations. few of the article itself. but many more of the kind and character of the advertising. mitators are always counterfeiters and their printed and written statements cannot be expected to be different than their < goods. .@

ENTERTAINMENTS.
New Haven Theater.

The Russell Stock company gave a
 fine presentation of the beautiful rural l'comedy North Carolina Folks" at the New Haven theater last night. The rough edges have all been smoothed,
 and the company is now in splendid working order. Mir. Russell as Abner l Granger again distinguished himself in E this difficult role. Charles H. McGrath as Steve Langdon was excellent; he has splendid stage presence and a goo voice. Miss Hendrie as the ambitious toverbearing wife was also good. III
 play will be presented again to-da. matinee and night.
 The last three nights this week 'ane at the Saturday matinee the beautiful play, Under Two Flags" will be the
 bill. This play is dramatized from oui-
 da's celebrated novel and is one of the strongest drawing cards on the stage to-day. The story relates to an English officer accused of forgery of which he is mot guilty but. knowing his brother is, he accepts the disgrace to shield him. He leaves England and goes to Algiers and enlists as common soldier under the assumed name of Victor. He ex-
 cites the animosity of his colonel, who 1 is jealous of his gallantry and many acts of bravery. The colonel places every obstacle in his way to prevent him from advancing in his regiment. Victor is loved by a vivandiere, Cigar rette, who is the pet of the regiment, and she champions his cause because l she loves him. Haunted and insulted, l Victor strikes his commanding officer and is tried and sentenced to be shot at sunrise. g Hr, .
 I Cigarette, knowing it would be no good to plead to Black Hawk, resolves 1 to get pardon from the field marshal, 1 to do which she has a long distance to lride, but she resolves to attempt. She l is successful. In the meantime the pris- loner is brought out to be shot. The sol
 diers are formed in line and the corl-
 mand is given to fire, which they do as l Cigarette arrive swith the pardon, and
 the bullet finds a, home in Cigarettes heart. She dies for the man she loves.
