| Texte du contenu : | L'affaire Caruso, chanté par Madame Gaudet à l'Eldorado, record Edison
Caruso l'ténor italien Un jour chez les américains Aperçut devant la cage des singes Une femme qui avait du beau linge Et puis Caruso s'dit : - Cette femme s'rait très bien dans mon lit Voyant qu'la belle ne répondait rien L'ténor employa l'grand moyen Et dit : Madame mes bras fascinent Et je possède une très bonne mine Une mine d'or au Pérou Aimez-moi ma mine est à vous ! Devant cette proposition La belle réplique : - vous êtes un cochon Mais Caruso l'coeur en flamme S'approcha tout près de la dame Fortement la pinça Pas dans l'dos mais un peu plus bas Relevant sa voilette elle lui dit : - Je te prends en flagrant délit Et Caruso vit, ô supplice, Que c'était un agent de police Qui avait, le malin, Revêtu un costume féminin. Quand devant les juges ils ont paru L'policeman le chargea tant et plus Que Caruso, c'est triste à dire, Pour s'être comporté comme satyre Fut condamné sans retard À une amende de 10 dollars. Si en France on faisait c'truc-là Notre budget serait gros et gras Car dans l'intérêt du service Tous nos braves agents de police Se feraient pincer pour de bon Afin de dresser contravention. - - - Écrite d'après un réel fait divers, la chanson se résume ainsi : accusé d'avoir accosté une jeune femme dans un zoo à New-York, Caruso est condamné à une amende de 10 dollars. La jeune femme est en fait, un policeman travesti. L'histoire du policier travesti est fausse, mais l'affaire a réellement existé, alimentant la presse copieusement, en particulier le New-York Times durant plusieurs semaines. Il semble que Caruso, effectivement arrêté le 16 novembre 1906, puis condamné à une amende de 10 dollars, ait été innocent, entraîné dans un procès inique. Emma Eames, Mary Garden, Jean de Reszké, Giacomo Puccini, Jules Claretie... ainsi que l'ancien chef de la police de New-York ! ont soutenu Caruso publiquement à cette occasion. Bien plus tard, ce honteux procès a été vu comme résultant d'une bataille entre des forces de police très largement issues de l'immigration Irlandaise et un éminent représentant de l'immigration italienne concurrente. En 1906 à New-York, Italiens et Irlandais étaient les deux grands groupes de nouveaux arrivants, antagonistes dans leur lutte pour le travail et la représentaiton politique.

They were locked up in the Arsenal Station charged with endangering the morals of five young boys. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Autre version de cette anecdote, absolument fantaisiste, et non sourcée : quoique chanteur, Caruso fumait des cigares, une douzaine d'immenses cigares de La Havane par jour, particularité étrange pour un ténor. Caruso se trouvait à New-York, il traversait Central Park, quand une jeune américiane peut-être un peu exaltée l'accuse de lui avoir tenu des propos inconsidérés, et de l'avoir embrassée de force. La foule new-yorkaise grouille autour, on ne sait pas que c'est Caruso, on le désigne aussitôt comme un infâme suborneur, et le policeman l'accuse : « - alors vous vous êtes jeté sur elle - Monsieur je pense que c'est impossible, et je crois que j'ai une preuve. Il montre son cigare en désignant les 3 cm de cendre restés sur le cigare : - avouez dit Caruso, que si j'avais dû embrasser cette jeune fille, ces 3cm de cendre ne seraient pas restés en place... ou alors, c'est que cette demoiselle aurait été consentante. » |
