Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

Cry Murder! in the market place, and each Will turn upon his neighbour anxious eyes That ask Art thou the man? RuDYARD Kipling. A WHISPER went through the Quarter; at first formless, undefinable, and thin. It penetrated the walls of the gambling-houses, siftingly, like dry cold. The men at play lifted their heads listened; silently pushed their stacks of chips toward the dealers, shoved back their chairs; without a woi dwent out into the street. It crept between the swinging-doors of the saloons like an ugly presence. Men with glass on lips paused, waited, put down their drink untasted quickly left these places. It permeated the dance-houses; women shivered and paled without knowing why; checked the ravings of the pianos; looked at one another with vague awe, then stealthily barred the windows and doors.
