Especial to News and Observer
Apex. N. c., April about three
O'Clock this morning the plant of the Apex
Canning Company was found to be on
fire, and owing to the lateness of the hour
the whole plant was entirely consumed by
the flames. The origin is not known, but
must be incendiary, as no fire had been
there since the close of last canning sea-
son. Two tramps were seen in town late
Wednesday evening, and it might be pos
sible that they lodged" about the fac
tory, built fire and the plant could have
caught while they slept, as they have
not been seen since. Inventory assets
footed up to $500; insurance $4,000. Ii
is hoped that the owners will rebuild the
plant in time for the coming tomato crop
