Tony found out that Uncle Junior was going to kill "Little Pussy" Malanga at the restaurant. Since Tony was friends with Artie since childhood he sent Silvio to torch the building so Junior could not do it there, thus saving Artie bad publicity created by a mob hit on the premises and getting the insurance money for Artie.

To stop Junior from setting up a hit at the restaurant. And to help Artie's business out by having Artie collect on the insurace money.

if i remember correctly, artie owned tony's "family" some money and in order to pay the money back he "gave" tony free meals and stuff and when artie started complaining he had the restaurant torched for the insurance,w/o artie's knowledge. that's when their "friendship" soured.

Uncle Jr. was going to have Pussy Malanga not Big Pussy Bonpensiero whacked at Vesuvios and he new it would ruin Artie's business. Tony tried to convince Uncle Jr. not to but Uncle Jun wouldn't listen.

I think he thought he was doing him a favor to collect insurance money. The business wasn't doing that well.
