the office boy, Jimmy Callaghan. One
day in the corridor adjoining the of

his daughter Dorothy.
Too close application to business
forces Huldcman to go away for a
rest. He gives instructions to his
broker, Jerrold Burnes, regarding the
handling of his affairs during his ab
sence Burnes has the confidence of
Haldeman despite the fact that he is
known to be a schemer. After the
older man's departure Burnes pre-
parcs a list of names and orders Scott
to summon them to a conference.
When Scott reads the list, which con
tnisn the names of some of the shadi
est manipulators in the market, he
becomes suspicious. Haldeman has
given Burnes an invitation to a dance
to be given that evening by Dorothy.
The man summoned to the confer

plan. He showed the other how Big
Five can be hammered down.
This is enough for Scott. (With a
borrowed dress suit he arrives at the
Haldeman home just as a jeweled

checks to a large amount, Dorothy and
Scott start for the mart of high
finance.
In the meantime Haldeman, on his
arrival at his camp in the mountains,
has been kidnapped by thugs in the
employ of Burnes, and is a prisoner.
But Burnes has reckoned without
Dorothy and Scott. The former clerk
becomes a trader of the exchange and
holds Big Five steady. But he gets
to the end of his "roll" at the close
of the day. That night, with Jimmy
Callaghan and Dorothy, Scott speeds
to the mountain camp in the big Hal

Haldeman and Scott dash into the ex

and Dorothy that's a closing chapter
by itself.
