01:55
The president's private car roamed the rails on an inspection trip to end at his western home.
02:10
President of the road.
02:19
Cullen's secretary. If he's a college man—it must have been Vassar.
02:33
"We can't afford to handle any more bank shipments with our trains continually held up by bandits!"

REWARD
03:47
"Train robbers got you scared?"
03:56
"Who, me? No suh—this here cullud boy is all set. Hold me up an' Ah'll germinate—"
04:20
"If Ah pull dis string once more—WHAT PRICE GLORY!"
04:43
Who wouldn't think of riding under anything less than the president's car.
04:51
A meeting place of the gang near the secret entrance to their underground lair.
05:03
Whose gang has defied the rifles of the K & A and outwitted its best detectives.
05:22
"No word from Cullen's secretary in a week—what does he think we're paying him for?"
06:04
Dropped down from the rim of the world——a stranger——asking no questions——giving no answers.
06:19
"If Holt double-crosses us, we'll save Cullen the trouble of firing a crooked secretary."
06:35
Tony—
Whose human intelligence aids his master in his perilous work.
07:02
"There's Cullen's daughter. She's been on a dude ranch up the river and is probably going to meet her father."
07:26
"She's a richer haul than the K & A ever carried. The old man would pay plenty of ransom for her!"
07:48
Would do anything in the world for her father——except marry Holt.
08:01
"Get your men down in the cut."
10:42
"Better not struggle—you might get hurt!"
11:40
"Some girl being kidnapped—that's the sheriff's posse after them—"
11:52
"Come on, boys—get him!"
13:04
"Take care of Madge, Holt."
13:25
"Stop the train, Holt—I'm going to turn this bandit over to the posse!"
14:08
"Sorry I can't stop for tea—or whatever your father drinks."
17:09
"Hold everything, whiskers, until I can get you."
19:02
"Captain! Don't you remember when we were in the Signal Corps at Verdun—"
19:15
"—how you saved me from taking out that French girl and spending fifty dollars—"
19:28
"—and how you borrowed my fifty and bravely took her out yourself?"
19:54
"I'm trailing train robbers for Cullen, president of the K & A——but he doesn't know it."
20:05
"I've just learned that Holt, Cullen's confidential secretary, is one of the crooks. That's why I'm keeping my identity secret."
20:17
"You never did like a quiet job!"
20:27
"How would you like to work with me?—you look like a bandit."
20:46
"Right at your back, Sir—but don't lose me."
21:09
That Night—
At the railroad president's western residence.
22:14
"Watch Tony—he thinks he has to go wherever I go."

"That Arizona bank wants to know why we don't deliver their gold bonds and I can't tell them we're afraid of hold-ups—"
24:07
"We'll send the strong-box on the Special No. 10 tomorrow—take a chance that the news doesn't leak out—"
26:55
"Don't be alarmed, Miss Cullen, I'm just a young bandit trying to get along."
27:28
"You might get nervous and swallow that little cannon!"
27:45
"Remember, mum's the word—and I'll tell you a little secret tomorrow."
28:29
"No, Dad, I haven't seen anyone."
29:34
"I didn't do it for you—it was for my father. Excitement is bad for his—heart."
29:50
"This kind of excitement is good for my heart."
30:43
"Are you with me?"
30:48
"Right at your back, Sir."
32:05
"That bandit probably overheard our plan to ship those gold bonds on No. 10."
32:25
"Why not send fake bonds with armed guards on that train and—"
32:37
"—carry the real treasure with us on our train."
33:00
"She's a great girl! I sort of hate to have her think I'm a low-down train robber—"
33:14
"Stick around the private car and watch Holt. I'll be up the road."
33:59
"I fooled Cullen easily. He's carrying the bonds on his own train."
34:10
"We'll hold you up after the second tunnel."
35:56
"Holt, you're a great help to me!"
37:53
"I believe you're thinking about that bandit."
39:01-39:05
"Money—is—on—Cullen's—train—"
39:19-39:24
"Holt—has—tipped—off—robbers—to—hold—up—engineer—after—second—tunnel—"
46:25
"He's in with the train robbers, Mr. Cullen—I heard everything—"
46:38
"Surely, you don't believe this tramp!"
46:49
"You oughta believe a man when he tells th' truth fer the first time in his life!"
48:07
"I'll go back and flag No. 10."
49:24
"Tom trusted me—an' I failed him—"
49:33
"Tom—you mean that highwayman?"
49:39
"Tom Gordon—a bandit! Why, he's the detective your father sent for!"
50:16
"Well, Miss Cullen, everything's all right, and now I can tell you that little secret."
50:31
"I know everything—he just told me."
50:52
"What's the matter, Buddy?"
51:07
"Never mind, old pal, I'll bring you the box—"
51:17
"—I'll bring you the bandits, sweetheart!"
53:45
"Better put this on, Holt—you might catch cold."
55:33
"If you don't quit drinkin' that stuff, you'll drown yet."
57:55
"Just a minute, Miss Fortune—where you goin'?"
1:01:00
"The helpful young man on the end of my rope, used to be your secretary."
1:01:54
"Two souls without a single thought!"
