Dear Yuri,
I believe it is from_The Hound of the Baskervilles_ by Arthur Conan
Doyle. It is from the scene in which Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson and
Mr. Baskerville discussing the editorial from the Times, which gives an
important clue.
By the way, one certain Sherlockian attempted to locate the very
editorial, with no avail.
