Synopsis
When the K & A Railroad is subjected to a series of mysterious robberies, detective Tom Gordon is detailed to uncover the mystery. Disguised as a bandit, Tom boards the train of K & A President Cullen; but Cullen's daughter, Madge, senses that Tom is not a criminal and soon falls in love with him, though she is sought after by Burton, her father's secretary, who is in league with the bandits. Ultimately Tom discovers his duplicity, and with the aid of Tony, his horse, rounds up the villains, thus winning the hand of Madge.
