$1OO,OOO FIRE LOSS
PLANT OF COLUMBUS GUANO C0M- PANY DESTROYED.
Believed That Spark From Engine Ig- Dited Birds Nests and Set Fire To The Building-Insurance
 &7O.OOO.

Columbus. Ga. April 21.-(Special)-- Fire wiped out the aoid department of the Home Mixture Guano Company this afternoon causing loss estimated at one hundred thousand dollars. The buildings composing some two-thirds of the plant were saved by the city fire department.
 The origin of the fire is not definite ly known. Fire was observed breaking out under the caves of the building and the theory is advanced that spark from the engine room fell in nests that had been built there by birds and started the conflagration.
 The building which was forty-two feet wide was burned foH distance of 3l4 feet, the flames being finally arrested by fire wall which saved Il portion of the structure The insurance on the property destroyed was about vided among thirty-thfee companies
 The burned portion of the plant will be rebuilt immediately.
