"Yes; an' so does Skip Jellison."
"How'd you hear of it?"
"Reddy saw him down on Fulton Street, an' Skip's just wild. Says he's goin' to thump the head off er Carrots if he shows hisself 'round this town to-day. You'd better come right up to City Hall an' see if you can't help him!"
"Help who?"
"Why, Carrots, of course. Sid Barker said he told one of the fellers that he was goin' up there to work, this forenoon, an' if somebody don't stop him, there'll be trouble."
"Skip won't dare to do any fightin' after the fuss with me."
"He says he will; an' he's goin' to smash Carrots's box, so you'd better go up."
"It seems as if I'd only make the matter worse," Teddy said half to himself. "I don't b'lieve Carrots'll be fool enough to show his nose round where Skip is, an' if I go there'll be some kind of a row sure. Why can't you manage this thing, Teenie?"
"What could I do?"
