NEW STEEL PLANT.
Ferry Steamers Will Stop There on
Certain Trips.

Operations at the big steel plant which
is in process of erection in the District
south of the Anacostia river will, it is
stated be begun within the next month or
six weeks and within the next three
months more than one thousand men will
be employed there. An these operatives will
have their homes here or in Alexandria,
and to get to and from their work the ferry
steamers will be used. The manager OF the
new plant was in conference with Mr.. John
Callahan, general manager of the ferry,
yesterday in regard to the stopping of the
ferry boats at the plant wharf, and it was
arranged to have them stop there on GER
tain trips early in the morning and again
in the afternoon, but this service is not to
be started until the water in front of the
pier is deepened to about fifteen feet
The buildings of the plant rapidly
approaching completion, and within the
next two or three weeks will be finished,
with considerable machinery in position.
There are now about 400 men employed on
the works, and as operations are
started this number will be increased. A
large proportion of the skilled workmen
will be brought here from Pennsylvania,
but it is understood that as far as possible
natives of this section will also be given
employment in the new works.

Jury Declared Countess Insane.

The Countess Mankowski, daughter of
John NJ. Bixby and wife of Count Casimir
Ignace Mankowski, was adjudged by a

incompetent to manage either herself or her

pronounced insane by the English court
of chancery, and her husband named as
committee of her estate She was sent to
an English sanitarum, but three years ago
she left there to return to her husbands
home, the count having been named as COM

examined in person. Grace Sterling Bixby
married the Count Mankowski in 1919 three
years after the death of her father who
made fortune by the sale of shoe black

Church. Hampden. Baltimore. to which
place they were going when the fatality
occurred.
Mr.. McLaren and his wife arrived unex-
pectedly in Anacostia Monday last and
went to the residence of Mrs Eliza P. Wal
son, the sister of the dead woman, at 1855
Maple avenue. 1t was the practice of Mr..
and Mrs. McLaren to visit the suburb reg
ularly, Mr. McLaren had served two
terms as pastor of the Methodist Episcopal
Church in the town. and they had numer-
Gus pleasant associations there. Mr.. Nc
Laren called upon many members of the
Methodist Church, and Wednesday after
noon, just before leaving for home, took
luncheon with Rev. Charles o. Isaac, the
present pastor of the church.
Mr.. and Mrs. McLaren left Anacostia for
Baltimore in the afternoon after o'clock.
Their relatives and friends were shocked
to learn of the result of their pleasure trip
to this city, the first intelligence of which
came to Mrs. Watson by telephone about
o'clock in the evening. She was told her
sister had been badly hurt and that her
presence was necessary. Following the de-
parture Of Mrs. Watson and Mrs. George
o. Watson for Baltimore came the an
nouncement by telephone of Mrs. McLaren's
death. The news did not reach her friends
generally until it was read II The Star
yesterday evening. Mr.. George o. Wal
son, who was in New York, was notified of
the death, and made arrangementsto go to
Baltimore last night.
A letter was received in Anacostia yester-
day from a relative of the family in Balti-
more telling of the circumstances of the
case, the details being practically the same
as printed in The Star yesterday. 1t is be-
lieved that Mrs McLaren would not have
made her sudden leap from the street car
had she not feared her husband had been
seriously hurt by falling while trying to
reach the same car in order to provide her
with fare. When the car appeared 1t
was well filled, and after seeing his wife
secure a seat Mr.. McLaren called to her
that he would follow on the next car. Then
it was that she recalled having no car fare,
fact Mr.. McLaren was made acquainted
with by hearing her cry out to him. He
endeavored to board the car. but was
thrown to the Maryland avenue bridge,
while his wife, startled at the accident,
jumped from the car, with the result
stated She lived but ten minutes after
falling it was stated, her death occurring
on one of the Roland Park cars as she was
being taken to a hospital. Mrs. McLaren
had been a sufferer from heart trouble for
a long time, her friends say, and the shock
proved too much for her. Mr.. McLa1en
was not seriously injured.

probable that it will be left for the West
chester Racing Association to make an offer
for the match at Belmont Park, where
Roseben with 147 pounds hung up worlds
record for three-quarters of a mile last
fall. The question of supremacy has caused
world of discussion among turfmen, who
want to have it definitely settled while both
sprinters are fit and ready. The West
chester Racing Associat ton can offer a purse
for race at exactly six furlongs, straight
away, in which event Roseben and Lady
Amelia, picking up weight for age would
each carry $50 pounds. The owners of
Roseben said yesterday that they would
accept such a proposition from the Belmont
Park management, but at present the at
titude of Lady Amelia's handlers is not
known. E. r. Thomas and Sydney Paget,
however, are noted sportsmen who do not
believe in lodging an issue, and if Trainer
Joyner's consent can be secured the Ben
Brush mare will be ready to measure
strides with Roseben under suitable con-
ditionS.
