I notice you have made an error in the command-line parameters of ssh;
the "-l" option tells ssh that the next option is meant as a username;
you want to omit it. I'm also not sure it's possible to include the
password on the command line. if you are using X forwarding, you should
not change the value of the environment variable "DISPLAY", and you
should not be using xhost to open up your X server; the ssh setup would
work for you.
That said, the other person to comment was correct, saying that OS X
Cocoa applications do not run over X; only X clients can run remotely.
To run a remote calculator app, you should try:
ssh -v -X -l username 111.111.1.111 xcalc
Good luck!
