English

"It is at the entrance of a small passage which is in Berner Street that the last body was found. I saw the place of crime. The murderer attacked his victim near a place with dark recesses where are held the meetings of an international club.

This international club is composed of a heap of robbers watched closely by the police. At the time when the blow was made, the patrons of the establishment were awakened, but they preferred listening and saying nothing. If they would come to say to me tomorrow that these people are accomplices, I would not be surprised at all."

From "La Presse", lundi 15 octobre 1888 :

"C'est à l'entrée d'un petit passage qui se trouve dans Berner Street que le dernier cadavre a été trouvé. J'ai vu l'endroit même du crime. Le meurtrier a frappé sa victime tout à côté d'un café à allures louches où se tiennent les réunions d'un club international.

Ce club international est composé d'un tas de bandits surveillés étroitement par la police. A l'heure où le coup a été fait, les patrons de l'établissement étaient éveillés, mais ils ont préféré écouter et ne rien dire. On viendrait me dire demain que ces gens-là sont des complices, que je ne serais nullement étonné."
