Word is flashed ahead to Helen, who in turn notifies Bowring, a railroad detective. The train is flagged. The crook's suspicions are aroused, however, and they escape a second time. The jewelry bag is dropped by one of the men and comes into Helen's possession. The girl is ordered to guard the bag until a couple of detectives come for it. Fate directs the footsteps of the jewel thieves to a station further down the line. To elude pursuit, the men board the local from the city. The detectives sent to get the jewel bag are seated directly in front of the crooks and the latter thus overhear them talking of their errand. By a clever ruse, Ella and his pal throw the sleuths from the train and hoodwink Helen into turning the bag over to them, instead. Once the bag is in their possession the thieves board an outgoing freight. Her suspicions aroused by their conduct, Helen commandeers a high-powered auto and goes in pursuit. A short cut enables her to reach the Leering Cross ahead of the train. Waiting for the freight to pass, Helen leaps from the auto to one of the flatcars as it flashes by. She then rushes forward, informs the engine crew as to what has transpired and brings about the capture of the thieves. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
