Yesterday's STau told of the demon strationmade by quite a large number of negroes Wednesday night in their zeal to protect the office and editor of the Daily Record, the negro daily, from the attacks of assailants who did not exist save in the healed brain and misguided imagination of the crowd. And how the office was garrisoned by Editor Manly and quite a number of his friends during the whole night. By early dawn yesterday drays were drawn up in j front o' the office and office furniture and compos ing room fittings were loaded on. and before noon the whole Record plant had been moved from the corner of Water and I Princess streets to a frame building on Seventh street be tween Ann and Nun. They had in tended to move into Ruth Hall but a movement to make the insurance rate considerably higher on account of the Record's occupancy of the building caused the trustees to reconsider their contract to rent to the Record people. No paper was issued yesferday on ac count of moving. There was talk around town yester day about the paer'a suspending, but Editor Manly fold u Stak reorter that the Rrconl would 'con tinue to do business in the same old way if not at the same old sland." The building tlie Record occupied, on Princess street is owned by Mr. M. J. Ileyer, who notified them to move several days ago. The viciuity in which the plant has been moved was very quiet last night. Manly ami his friends were of course on guard and the police thereabouts were more than usually alert.
