In the worst fire in Utah county in four years, the Geneva Canning company plant near the old Geneva resort was demolished by flames in. the early morning hours Monday. The fire, believed to have started from a bolt of lightning, razed the plant and brought a loss estimated at nearly $100,000. Two-thirds of the tomato pack and all of the shoe string potato pack were lost. Lightning striking the catsup room of the plant was the cause of the fire, according to the theory of Frank A. Juglcr of Ogden, owner of the plant, and resident manager Flames quickly spread, and by the time the Provo and Pleasant Grove fire departments had responded to the alarm, turned in at 1:30 'a. m., the roofs had caved in and . the blaze was raging furiously and was beyond control. The fire was discovered by two girl employees of the company, and the alarm was turned in by one of them. The two fire departments suc ceeded in saving the boiler room, office, home, nearby sheds, and three refrigerator oars of the Denver Den-ver & Rio Grande Western rail road on a siding near the plant. Efforts to save the canned goods In the warehouse were fruitless. Mr. Jugler estimated the loss at $95,000, allowing $50,000 for the plant and $45,000 for the canned products In the plant A Denver & Rio Grande Western railroad car, valued at $6,000, also was destroyed. and another one damaged. The car which was burned contained empty cans, which were destroyed. The warehouse at the plant was filled to capacity at the time.

The plant had been canning tomatoes to-matoes for a month and a half, and had expected to continue the. campaign cam-paign for some time. The plant was built 20 years ago for the purpose of canning fish from Utah lake. When the lake level fell and fishing became impossible, the cannery was converted into a Last Rites Honor John A.
