0aak In the River as Alexandria
The steamer Armenia burned this morning
at her moorings, foot Of Wolfe street. Alexan-
dria. and was sunk at O'Clock In order TO ex-
unguish the flames that still burned in her
hold. The Armenia was taken to Alexandria
some weeks ago to be laid up for the winter and
was moored at the "Iron Boom" wharf. near
Pioneer mills. The steamer was In charge OF
Watchman Layman, who, with his little SOM
lived on board. Shortly before three O'Clock
this morning the watchman heard the crack
ling OF fire and as soon as he opened the door
found the steamer in flames. The fire seemed
to come from the hold and soon covered the
boat on the starboard, which, as the steamer
faced up the river, was furthest from the wharf
The alarm was given and a fe " minutes after

however, worked steadily on until daylight
and drove the fire below. There IL defied all
efforts 10 disiodge Il, and at O'Clock a hole was
opened In the hull and the boat was sunk I'm

fire on the boat, the conflagration is attributed
to incendiarism, but may have proceeded from
the spontaneous combustion of the waste
which so often collects on steamers Ii is I'M
derstood that the steamer was fully insured.
The Armenia was owned by the Inland and
Coastwise Transportation company, of Balti-
more, Md. The original cost to the company
was $50, 000 but the boat cost them In repairs
Improvements and OUTFIT about s55,oO0.
The insurance on the boat is stated by one OF
