CONTEMPT OF CoURT.-Some commoicn
was created in St. Louis, yesterday, by tho 10
generation of Morrison RsnshaW, a reporter
of tho Globe. Democrat. for contempt of court.
RenshaW wrote an article giving some iniorua
ton touching the investigation BY the Grand

PoWell's carpet house. Renshaw was sum-
moned, and refused to reveal the name OF his
informant. He was committed 10 all 10

Globe Democrat, and the question whether
newspaper reporter can be compelled by grand
Jury to violate pledge Of secrecy vii! be coI-
tested to its fullest limit.
