No Cuban Soldiers Attend Havana Arm-Surrender Pay
Havana May 27. Not a Cuban soldier appeared to claim the $75 share of a $3,000,000 pay-out for surrendering arms. Major George brought gold and silver with guards, while Cuban officers and reporters watched. Officials admitted many Cubans were not in Havana, and few appeared as the noon deadline passed. Some officers mocked the process, and a lone unarmed Cuban in uniform turned out to be a camp follower, dismissed from the pay table.
