The brethren in Port of Spain, Trinidad, report that the port is under a yellow-fever quarantine, a number of deaths having occurred. They therefore advise the General Conference to delay sending help forward for the printing office and treatment rooms. Brother S. A. Wellman writes:—
As soon as the danger is over, we will write, but until then we would advise a delay. We will hold the ropes as best we can till such time as matters clear up. We believe that with careful living, by the blessing of God, we shall be all right.
Our New York Branch
By Editor
A stock of all the publications of the Review and Herald Publishing Association is now on hand at the New York office. The publications of our other denominational publishing houses will also be kept on hand, and can be supplied as fast as the stock arrives.
The Maine, Vermont, Central New England, Southern New England, Western New York, Eastern New York, and New Jersey Conferences can now be most promptly served from New York. All the other conferences in the Atlantic Union will order from Washington as heretofore.
Brother L. W. Graham, the manager of the New York office, has had several years’ experience in our publishing houses, and will take special pains to look after the interests of our customers.
It is expected that the New York office will carry a more complete stock of all the publications issued in foreign languages than any other house. In this respect the establishment of this new office will be of deep interest to all our foreign-speaking people throughout the United States.
The Review and Herald in New York will look after the comfort of our incoming and outgoing missionaries, and the shipping of supplies to mission stations for the General Conference, thus taking the work which Brother J. M. Calvert has been doing for the last few years. Brother Calvert is now connected with the New York office.
The office is in the Reliance Building, 32 Union Square, East, Corner Sixteenth St., and is convenient to subway, elevated, and surface cars.
When our people are passing through New York, we invite them to make the office their headquarters. Mail can be addressed in our care. We have a telephone. Remember the address, and write it in full, as follows: Review and Herald Publishing Assn., Room 404, 32 Union Square, East, New York City.
