CUBANS SOLID FOR WINS.
Remember zoith Gratitude His

There about a thousand Cuban voters in New
York City. and they solidly for William NJ. Ivin.
for Mayor Aside from the Importance of thou
sand votes in this election. the reason for the sup
port of Mr.. WINS by the Cubans is their desire
show their gratitude for the patriotic services
dered by the Republican mayoralty candidate IN
the time of the Cuban revolution when assistance
appreciated
This service which Mr.. WINS ably rendered
well illustrates the type of man whom the Repub-
icans have chosen their standard bearer.
1t about ten years ago that the Cuban fill
clustering steamer G. W. Hawkins foundered and
sank off the Long Island coast Several of the pa
triots were drowned. and the survivors ar
rested for violation Of the neutrality laws Among
the latter were General Carlos Roloff and Ben
,smin j Guerra treasurer of the Junta in this
city.
Mr. WINS was engaged by the Junta as counsel
for the prisoners His able conduct of the case be-
fore Commissioner Shields obtained the acquittal
Of the expeditionaries.

and then head of the Junta asked Mr.. WINS 10

Although about years have passed since MI
