Synopsis
A banker successfully places the blame for his own embezzling on one of his cashiers (thereby collecting from the bonding company), but he is finally caught in the act by another cashier, the sister of the imprisoned cashier, and Champion, a dog. While Champion keeps the banker busy, the hero goes for the police; and there ensues a long chase, which ends with the capture of the banker, the release of the girl's brother, and her happy embrace of the hero.
