Baltimore, Sept. 12.—Old Defend-
ers’ Day, the anniversary of the bat-
tle of North Point in defense of Balti-
more against the British ln 1814, was
generally observed in Baltimore and
throughout Maryland today. By proc-
lamation of the mayor and governor
it is a legal holiday in the city and
state, all the banks, exchanges and
public institutions being closed. Com-
mercial business was partially sus-
pended and several celebrations of a
patriotic character were held.
A project has been set on foot to
hold an international exposition in this
<jit,j; In 1*14, the centennial of the de-
fense of Baltimore, which marked the
climax of the war of 1812 and the
birth of tlte "Star Spangled Banner.”
Preliminary steps have been taken to
put the plan Into effect.
Five thousand British soldiers, 2000
sailors and 2000 marines under Gen-
eral Ross and Admiral Cookburn, took
part ln the attack on Baltimore. Many
of the troops had been with the Duke
of Wellington ln his victories over Na-
poleon’s armies ln Spain and were
styled “Wellington’s invlnclbles.” They
were defeated by the untrained de-
fenders of Baltimore In a desperate
battle on September 12, 1814. General
Ross and 700 British troops were kill-
ed, while the toss to the American
fortes was only twenty killed.
It was this victory and the sight of
“Old Glory*’ floating over Port Mc-
Henry, after the terrible bombardment
to which It was subjected the follow-
ing, pUbt, that Inspired Francis Scott
Key to compose t he American national
anthem, the “Star Bpangled Banner."
