"You mean the Quatrones may try to break you?" "Something like that." "Suppose Narcone er resists?" Donnelly shrugged, "We can't very well kill him, That's what makes it hard. I knew you had as much at stake as I, so I felt sure you'd help."

I've never had a chance before, but now I'm going after this Vito Sabella and land him. Will you look him over, Norvin, and see if he's the right party?" "Of course. I owe Narcone a visit and I'm glad of this chance. But granting that he is Narcone, how can you get him out of New Orleans? He'll fight extradition and the Quatrones will support him." "I'm blamed if I know.

"I tell you I don't know. But I can guess pretty closely. It was one of the Pallozzo gang. This Narcone he calls himself Vito Sabella, by the way is a leader of the Quatrones. The two factions have been at war lately and some member of the Pallozzo outfit has turned him up." The light died out of Norvin's face, his body relaxed.

"The Pallozzos and the Quatrones," Donnelly explained, "are two Italian gangs which have come into rivalry over the fruit business. They unload the ships, you know, and they have clashed several times. You probably heard about their last mix-up one man killed and four wounded."

He had followed so many clues, his quest had been so long and fruitless, that he met disappointment half-way. Up to this moment Bernie Dreux had listened without a word or movement, but now he stirred and inquired, hesitatingly: "Pardon me, but what is this Pallozzo gang and who are the Quatrones? I'm tremendously interested in this affair."
