Sturdy and energetic all her life and at the age of 89 years Btill clinging to the lifelong habit of rising at dawn and helping to get the breakfast of the members of the family who went out to dally toll, Mrs.

Susan Langville, 209 West Jephson street, clung to her busy habits until her very death, dying on a couch on the first floor of her daughter's home yesterday. During the last few months she had been bo feeble that it taxed her strength to the utmost to merely get up and down stairs, yet she continued to rise with the other members of the family. Born on a small homestead on Hill street, April 7, 1816, Mrs. Langvllle had never been 10 miles away from the spot, never been outside Baltimore city, never ridden on a street car, never talked through a telephone, nor known the need or felt the craving for any of the advantages for widening her mental horizon, which are now within the reach of the poorest- and as a rule so eagerly sought. For the last IS years she had not been north of Baltimore street.

She was fond of telling stories of the time when Hill street was practically the southern boundary of the city, her husband hunting over the fields south of it. Mrs. Langville's husband, Owen Langvllle, a laborer in the brickyards which abounded in South Baltimore during his life, died 28 years ago, and since then his widow had made her home with one or the other of her children. She had lived with Mrs. Dorothea Tormollan, at whose home she died, for 18 years.

Always fond of chickens and geese, a flock of the latter which has guarded for years has grown to number 40. When not busy at her household tasks her chief delight was in tending these, and she was never happier than when on a warm summer afternoon she was seated knitting on some one of the few spots of green the growth of the city has left near her home, with her white-feathered charges cackling not far away. Mrs. Langvllle remembered when Har mon's Bridge was built, over 60 years ago. It furnished the first means of direct com munication between Baltimore and the territory south of the Patapsco.

Her fa ther, Mr. Althauser, was one of the defend ers of the city at the battle of North Point. Mrs. Langville also remembered the visit of Lafayette. The fact that she had done so little traveling she always attributed to the few opportunities when she was young and a natural timidity, despite her mental and physical vigor, about venturing untried things after she had reached a mature age.

Her health began to fail about three months ago. Although she was short and probably never weighed more than 100 pounds, her vitality was the wonder of the physicians who attended her. Mrs. Langvllle was the mother of 10 children. Three survive her.

besides 2S grandchildren, 52 great-grandchildren and 5 great-great-grandchildren. The children are Mrs. George Schuman, Mrs. Francis C. Tormollan and Mr.

This examination, it will be remembered, was made and th suggestions of these gas experts were carried out. A new plant was erected at a very large ex penditura and the whole property was placed in flrstclass condition, and aU of the estimates 01 Messrs.

Humphreys Glasgow were made upon the hypothesis that the price of gas would be reduced to $1 per l.ooo cubic feet. The property "has now been placed upon a basis of producing a very large income, and the time having arrived wnen tne plaos of the recent lnt the mrectors have announced that th, pHce wiU be reduced. The Consolidated Gas Company Is now domi nated by the same parties who control the United Electric Light and Power Company, and while there is no official connection between these com panies the management is the same and they will no doubt be worked to the mutual advantage of each other. In this connection a banker who has close affiliations with some of the New York interests which now have a voice in the management of the local gas company says that he believes a further reduction will, sooner or later, be made. "I cannot say how soon this may be done," he continued; "in fact, it may be a long time before another, radical reduction is announced.

"It was also said to me that the New York bankers do not fear competition in the electric field. The multiplication of electric light companies, they thought. could have no material Influence on the gas situation, and the fact that a rival electric company was about to be started here gave them no apparent concern whatever.

I was asked the polntblank question if there was not sufficient room here for two electric light companies, as electricity is used for so many purposes other than lighting. city the size of Baltimore, the New York ers believe, can support profitably two elec trie light corporations."

Baseball Macrnato A Victim Ot Heart Failure. END CAME AT BROOKLYN HOME Foneral Will Take Place Here Mrs. Von Iler Horst 111 In Maine And Unable To Come. Mr.

Harry It. Von der ITorst, president of the Baltimore Baseball Club at the time the Orioles won three pennants and for the last six years secretary and part owner of the Brooklyn Club, died yesterday morn ing at his home in Brooklyn. After Mr. Von der Horst secured an in terest in theTJrooklyn Club he made his home in Xew York and Brooklyn, but his family continued to keep a residence in this city at 747 West North avenue, and fre quently was here for weeks at a time. It was while in this city last winter that he was taken critically ill with heart trouble, and for a few days he was at the point of death.

Ater recovering from that attack seemed to be completely restored to health before he left for Brooklyn. The dispatch from New York says that death resuirea irom heart failure, due to nn an eurism. Mr. Herman Von der norst. r.12 Tvnrth Carrollton avenue, a cousin of the dead man, received word from Brooklyn that the body would be sent to Baltimore and would probably arrive here this morning.

Mrs. Von der Horst and her two daughters, who are spending the summer at Echo Lake, West Mount Vernon, Maine, were also Informed of the death, and Mr. Her man Von der Horst received a telezram stating tbat Mrs. Von der Horst was too in to start for Baltimore. Miss Louise Von der Horst started fof Baltimore as soon as the message was received, and the other daughter.

Miss Charlotte Von der Horst, remained at the bedside of her mother. Undertaker George Schilling has been en gaged to attend to the funeral arrangements, which will be completed as soon as the daughter arrives in this city. The body will be taken to the Kortb. avenue address. "Was A Native Of Baltimore.

Mr. Von der Horst wajs the eon of John H. Von der Horst, and was born in Baltimore 54 years ago. At his death, July 4, 1894, he inherited a large share of the brewery, which was founded by his father in 1SG6. He retained a large share of the business until it was absorbed by the Gottlieb Bauernschmldt Straus Com pany.

It was in 1S94 that Mr. Von der Horst. with Mr. Edward C. Carrington and Mr.

T. R. Clendinen, formed the Von der Horst Brewing Company. About five years later the Maryland Brewing Company was formed. wnicn represented a consolidation of about 17 breweries.

When these were combined the Von der Horst Company went Into the combine at a valuation of $600,000. The new company was not so prosperous, and In 1892 Mr. Von der Horst, as well as the other partners, sold out their interest to the Gottlleb-Bauernschmldt-Straus Com pany. In his youth he was an athlete and took great interest in all sports. From childhood he was a baseball enthusiast, and early in his manhood he became a familiar figure at'the professional ball grounds.

He would always occupy the best box in the stand and showed his appreciation of the merits of the players by giving them presents. The late William Barnie was then the manager of the local team, and between him and Mr. Von der Horst sprung up a friendship which lasted until the death of the latter. He had Invested money in the club for a few years prior to 1887, when he became a partner of Barnie, whom he gradually succeeded as head of the club. He was president of the club in 1890, when the Players' 'Co-operative League, called the Brotherhood, was formed.

Baltimore at that time was In the American Association, which was the rival organization of the National League. Kilroy, the star pitcher Tucker, the first baseman; Griflin. center field, and other leading players of local team took places with the Brother hood, and for a time it seemed as if Baltl more would be left without a team. Molding: The Pennant Winners. Those were busy days for Mr.

Von der Horst. After an altercation with Von der Ahe, a prominent "magnate" of the association, Barnie and Mr. Von der Horst withdrew the Baltimore team in Septem- oer, at the time when it was at the head of the list and seemed likely to win the pennant, and entered the Atlantic Associa tion, which included minor cities Washington, Newark, Jersey City, New Haven, Hartford, Worcester and Frovidence. The following year a reconciliation was effected and Baltimore returned to the American As sociation. In 1892 Baltlmore got in the National League, but made little showing until Mr.

John William Waltz, who was then asso ciated with Mr. Von der Horst in its management, called attention to the possibilities of Mr. Hanlon as a manager for the team. As captain of the All-American team Mr. Hanlon sprung into wide repute, and he could be gotten from the Pittsburg team only on the condition that he could be called back.

The Baltimore team had won 1 gama out of 17 at that stage of the season when the contract with Mr. Hanlon was signed at Chicago. At first he had trouble with the players, who appealed to Mr. Von der Horst and Mr. Waltz.

Mr. Hanlon was given full swing, promising young players were worked into the team, and in 1S94 the famous three-time pennant-winner was the result. Each year the team cleared nearly $40,000. During the two years following the winning of the pennants Mr. Von der Horst continued at the head of the club, although it ceased to be a profitable investment.

In 1899 the consolidation with Brooklyn was effected for the purpose of using the choice players in Brooklyn and the other available men in Baltimore. Since then Mr. Von der Horst has been secretary of the Brooklyn Club. Father Opposed His Ventures. Mr.

Von der Horst was known as a man of keen judgment. His father intended that he should be the head of the brewing company, and when a young man he was sent to study the methods of the leading breweries in this country and in Europe. Few men knew more about every phase of the business than he. Ills knowledge of brewing stood him in good stead while his father was living, and the business prospered under the partnership, in which the son had a considerable share. The father was opposed to the 6on's Investments in baseball and had the courts restrain him from putting more of his money into such ventures.

He was cut off from his revenue at a time when his only possibility of making any money out of the Baltimore team depended upon his ability to buy more high-priced players. Through his counsel, Mr. Clendinen, Mr. Von der Horst succeeded in having restored to him the money he formerly had at his disposal. It was by the generous use of this money that he finally got together the pennant-winning team, which brought him back all he had invested with a margin of profit big enough to enable him to withstand several years of reverses.

It is known that his fortune has lessened and increased often, and that in one year he has been worth less than one-third of what he had the previous year. After a period of loses his luck would come back to him. A year after he left Baltimore he began to speculate in Wall street, where for a short time he had dazzling luck. It is thought that he leaves a large sum. Ills closest friends know that he was not the kind of man to talk of his losses, and even those closest to him do not know how near he went to the bottom of his resources when he had big margins to meet.

Some years ago he had a deed of trust made out to the credit of the members of his family, so that no turn of fortune would leave them unprovided for. Mr. Von der Horst made friends by the hundred. For some years before he severed his business connections In this city he spent much time in New York, and there he had many friends, with whom he had become more closely associated since he has been a part owner of the Brooklyn Baseball Club. All of them remember him with affection for his kindly manner and good nature.

MRS. REBECCA CIRLEY. The funeral of Mrs. Rebecca Curley, wife of John Duncan Curley, took place yesterday from her home, 419 East Biddle street. She was the daughter of the late James and Mary Stuart Michael, of Scotland, who came to this country and settled in Shepherdstown, W.

then in Virginia. Her grandmother was a native of the town of Ayr, Scotland, the birthplace of Robert Burns. Her great-uncle, John Struthers, presented Lawrence Washington, nephew of George Washington, the sarcophagus in which the coffin containing tha body, fif Senator Brewinffton Thinks It Was 4 Unintentional What Mr. J. Charles Lliitliicum Says.

That the appropriation in the State printing bill was Increased from $18,000 to $23,000 without the authorization of the General Assembly is apparent from statements made by Mr. J. Charles Linthicum and Senator Ml V. Brewington. Both declare that the original bill called for an appropriation of $18,000 and they are equally certain that no amendment increasing the amount to $25,000 was passed.

Governor Warfield is not inclined to allow the matter to rest with the throwing out of all the printing bids. He Is of the opinion that there are grounds for suspicion that the bill has been tampered with, and he purposes to set on foot the most rigid Inquiry. It is his declared Intention to prosecute the offender should the Investigation prove the guilt of any man. Senator Brew ingrton's Statement. Senator Brewington, who was chairman of the Engrossing Committee In the Senate last winter, through which committee the bill for public printing passed, says "I am at a loss to understand how the figures in the printing bill could have been altered, except that it is possible that some amendment was offered in the House, which was adopted and which failed to be concurred in by the Senate, or else in the rush of business in the House it i3 possible that an amendment was offered, which was rejected and which appeared indorsed as adopted.

I am sure there was no amendment passed in the Senate raising the price to over $18,000. "I remember the fight over the bill very well in the Senate. Senator John Gill offered the bill, fixing the price to be paid for the State printing at $18,000 and making some very stringent points as regards the delivery of the Journals within 24 hours after being received by. the printer. Knowing that some of the demands could hardly be met I offered an amendment, raising the price to $30,000.

This amendment was voted down and was never adopted In the Senate. As the bill left the Senate it contained no provisions for a higher price than $18,000, but I believe when it reached the House It was reported unfavorably by the Printing Committee, the bill being substituted for the unfavorable report. There were several amendments offered In the House one, I understand, by Delegate Gill, of Howard county, for $25,000, which, the Journal shows, was never adopted, and it Is barely possible that in the great rush of business "the indorsement on this amendment might have been instead of in which case, when the bill was returned to the Senate and reached the en grossing room, the clerk who enrolled it for the Governor's signature followed the copy in hand and probably failed to notice the indorsements as closely as he might, and the examining committee may have made the same mistake. "It is very easy to find the original bill, with all the indorsements and amendments, which will show just who the examining committee was, and if there was such an amendment attached to the bill, and what the indorsement is across the face of same. The idea that the mistake is an intentional one is most absurd, unless It was perpetrated by a novice, for no man with any legislative experience would have so little sense as to change the figures or wording of a bill, especially adding an amendment, unless there was some opportunity to have tha Journal correspond with it, and unless the face and back of the original, or the engrossed bill, at any rate, showed the proper indorsements." Speaking of the Senate engrossing room, Senator Brewington said "I have been at Annapolis for several years, and ever since I was first elected have had charge or have been a member of the Engrossing Committee, and I can say.

with all due respect, and I believe I will be backed up by all the Senators at Annap olis last winter, that the room was almost absolutely free of mistakes. There was not a bill lost or misplaced, and this is the first mistake of any character which I have discovered. I attribute all this carefulness and system to the fact that the chief engrossing clerk, Mr. Llewellen Ker, of Wicomico county, was one of the most efficient men I have ev-r seen at Annapolis." Says Bill Wa "Sot Amended. Mr.

J. Charles Linthicum, a member of the House of Delegates of 1904, in speaking of the Printing bill, said "I remember very distinctly when the bill came up in the House. It was advocated most vigorously by several members, including the Speaker, who called another member to the chair while he advocated the bill on the floor of the House. It was also advocated by Mr. Kirbin.

myself and other members, and I am positive that no amendment was adopted. The bill was reported unfavorably by the Printing Committee and. on motion of Mr. Kirbin, substituted for the unfavorable report. After a vigorous contest its adherents succeeded in having it placed on its second reading in its original shape, without any amendments, and in that way It passed the House."

William II. ETans Takes Them Out On Yacht. The inmates of the German Orphan Asylum were given a pleasant day's outing yesterday on Commodore William H. Evans" yacht Chilhowee as the guests of Mrs. Evans.

The children were taken from the asylum at Alsquith and Orleans streets in a large omnibus to the foot of Wolfe street. The start was made shortly after 9 o'clock in the morning and after a delightful sail down the bay they landed at the Crescent Club shore, which was kindly given over to the exclusive use of the children by Mr. Frank Morrison, president of the club.

IMMIGRANT IN PULLMAN CAR A Sick Woman Being: Brought To Baltimore For Deportation. A special dispatch to The Sux from Pittsburg last night says: "Miss Xannie Irvine, matron of the Immigration service at the port of Baltimore, arrived this morning to take back Mrs. Vara Pulez, a Croatian woman, who is to be deported from Baltlmore on the Xorth German Lloyd steamer Chemnitz. "Mrs. Pulez is 35 years old and arrived at Baltimore May 25.

She got on a train on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad for Braddock, but became so ill on the train that at McKeesport she was taken off and was sent to the McKeesport Hospital, where she remained until July 3, when sha was removed to the County Home at Wood-ville, suffering from tuberculosis. "She said at the time of her arrival that she had a sister at Braddock, but this sister is said to be dead.

Telephone Co. Contends That Wrong Wires Were Cat. In cutting overhead wires connecting the buildings on the west side of Eutaw street, between Pratt and Lombard streets, the wlrecutters have involved the city in a legal entanglement with the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company. Lnder an agreement, the company is com pelled to put its wires underground only between Gay nnd Eutaw streets. As the subway feeding the west side of Eutaw street is in an alley in the rear of he build ings, the company holds that it is not re quired to bury its wires.

The city contends that the boundary line Includes both sides of Eutaw street A truce has been de clared and the wires will be restrung pend ing a decision of the company as to whether it wants to contest the matter in court or go into the subway. The wire crusade was continued yester day, and, as In the case of the day before, no exceptions were made, several com plaints of Interrupted telephone and tele graph service were made to the Mayor. and he said that he would grant hearings on Monday to protestants. It is his opin ion that the various companies alone are at fault, as they have had amnle notice of tne city's intention to clear the subwav district or an overhead wires. Mr.

For each mosquito as It metamorphoses from the larva Is pure and uninfected. This means that If all yellow fever patients all over the world were cured (or dead), yellow fever would pass into the extinct diseases.

But thre are always some central foci In exist- ence where the disease Is endemic, such as Central Africa and South America, es peclally among uncivilized tribes.

MAilUU-Li Uit MA I UK irn vswaav FViend Of CItr Councilman Says Ife "Won Id Ilefnse Nomination. Although the election is a year and a half off, the friends of Mr.

J. Barry Ma hool, Tresident of the First Branch of the City Council, are booming him for the Mayoralty nomination. They are confident that he could be easily nominated and that lie would be a fitting antagonist to Mayor TImnaus, who Is generally considered to be certain of the Republican nomination. Of Mr. Mahool his friends say that his rocord makes him the man for the place nad that he would be more- certain of elec tlnn than any man no before tie public; conservative, honest and capablef they argue that be has every qua iflcatlon for the place.

Although his public life has 1 I boon of brief duration, the claim is made that It has been of such a character as to tain the confidence and good wishes of the people, In constructing this Mayoralty fence his friends, it is authoritatively stated, have not taken Mr. Mahool into consideration. In this connection a close friend of his says: "Mr. Mahool will not be a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Mayor in I can say this with every confidence. Mr.

Mahool is not after the place and would not take It under any consideration, He takes a common-sense view of the situ. ation. Only 34 years old, he feels that he has not sufficient municipal experience to warrant an able and efficient administration of the office. He believes that to serve the people well be roust have a more ex tensive experience In municipal affairs. For this reason I can say that he will not be a Mayoralty candidate in 1907.

"ino nomination as President of the Second Branch of the City Council Is an. other office for which he is being consid ered ry nia party. I believe that he could be induced to become a candidate for this position. It would be in line for the May oralty. As a member of the Boards of Estl mates and Awards he would have an accurate knowledge of business pertaining to in municipal departments.

This experi- would DO invaluable to him as Mayor, ind I have no doubt that in 1911 he would te in a receptive mood for the Mayoralty nomination. Portrait Of S. IX.

The meeting called last night by the Bo- land Park Company to discuss the assess ment laid by the County Commissioners upon the residents of Roland Park, Tuxedo Park and Normandy Heights in the maca damizing of the proposed boulevard to Cold Spring lane and Roland avenue was a stormy one from beginning to end. Fully 300 taxpayers were present and filled the Woman's Club Building, Roland Park, to overflowing. Mr. Edward EI. Bouton, president of the Roland Park Company, called the meeting to order and attempted to explain the part that the company was playing in the proposed development.

It was apparent from the first that the people were embittered against the company because of what they believed was a low tax levied on the prop erty of the company. All through his re marks Mr. Bouton was cross-questioned and he could make little advance in his discus sion. He said, in part "This meeting is opportune because the property holders wish Information. The people are In the dark as to the method of assessment and are surprised that the boulevard should cost $30,000.

"It seems to me that the road should be macadamized with the very best material, which, according to Road Engineer Shirley, will cost $30,000, for on this strip of land, which is some 1,000 feet long, lying between the northern boundary of the city and Cold Spring lane and Roland avenue, there Is no maintenance fund to keep the road tn repair. "If the people want a cheaper road we will concur in their expression of opinion, but we would regret such a course. "As to the part that our company had in the assessment I would say that all I did was to furnish the value of the Roland Park property, which we know from having sold the land and built most of the houses, at the request of the board of assessors. Land Divided Into Three Zones. "The board divided the property of this vicinity into three zones, according to the benefit they thought the people would receive from the opening of the road.

Zone No. 1 would receive the most benefit, and extends from Roland avenue and Cold Spring lane to TVydnhurst avenue on the north and on the east to Woodlawn avenue. On the west of Roland avenue is a small strip of territory. This property was assessed at full value. "Zone No.

2 takes in Good Wood Gar dens, the country club on the west side of Roland avenue, and on the east Bide from Woodlawn back to Oakdale road. To the north it extends from Wyndhurst avenue to Belvedere. This property was assessed at two-thirds its value. "The third zone takes in the outlying territory of the other zones, and is assessed at one-third value. "To show you that my company perfectly fair In the transaction, I suggested even larger zones, which would have taken in much of the unimproved land of the company, but the assessors did not see fit to tax that land." At this point a volley of questions were fired at the speaker.

Amid the confusion someone suggested Mr. Albert Miller for chairman, and he was elected. Dr. M. G.

Potter was elected secretary. Other Roads Cost 75 Then Roads Engineer Shirley explained that the road would cost $2.25 a square yard, according to the present plans, but that If the people wanted a cheaper macadam he could furnish it. Someone in the rear remarked that roads of the same type as the proposed boulevard had been constructed on both sides of the debatable land at a cost of 75 cents a square yard. He referred to the road that the city is constructing and to Roland avenue. The people think that the strip of only a fifth of a mile should be of the same material and at the same cost.

This was expressed in a resolution adopted, which will be referred to a committee of five to bo appointed by the chairman. The committee is to make a careful study of the whole situation and report at the general meeting, August 10. Mr. Osborne I. Tellott, attorney of the County Commissioners and the Roland Paxk Company, was called to the stand.

He explained his relations with both parties and the method of assessment, which was 1.27 per cent, of the value of the improved property, according to the zone in which it was located. As to the legal side of the question, he said that the people were perfectly secure. What the Commissioners had done was not binding, he said, and if on August 17 the taxpayers would appear before the Com missioners and show Just reason why such an expensive road should not be constructed, and that there was general dissatisfac tion with the present arrangement, he was sure a satisfactory conclusion could be reached. This Information seemed to quiet the property-holders, and the committee of five was appointed by the chairman to look Into the matter of cost and the method of assessment. It is composed of Messrs.

C. Ober, H. R. Mayo Thom, John T. Hill, Chas.

Minnigerode and E. E. Price. It was after 11 o'clock before the meeting adjourned, as many of the men still poured in question after question upon Mr. Bouton, Mr.

Shirley and Mr. Yellott. Many of the residents have already signed an agreement not to pay anything on tne roaa li tne plans are carried out as at present proposed, but all are in favor of improvements on what they term an equitable basis.

Success and glory were the drydock Dew ey's share in the third and most difficult test at Solomons Island yesterday. As the great floating masterpiece of Maryland skill lifted from the water a battle so did it accomplish the more critical task of lifting itself out of the water.

All three tests were made without a hitch. Several days ago the center pontoon of the drydock floated successfully the two end pontoons. Yesterday the end pontoons accomplished a like task with the center pontoon. This was done by submerging the end pontoons under the center pontoon, or vice versa, and then pumping out the water from the sunken pontoons. The test Is considered necessary, as at Manila, the dry dock's destination, there will be no docking facilities whereby it can be painted or re paired.
