He treats Helen as a small child and she resents it, although she really loves him without knowing it. Herbert is the moving spirit of the Iota Mining Company, which must buy an ore railroad to increase its profits. Jack Deerforth, an unscrupulous but brilliant manipulator, secures the railroad needed by the Iota Company for the purpose of holding up the company. He makes use of Soper, Ralph's secretary, to do this. Helen Sinclair is a frivolous young married woman. Her husband gives her some bonds to put away and she borrows $10,000 from Deerforth on them. This gives Deerforth a hold on her cousin, Helen Vincent. He uses the lever to get Helen Vincent to his house. Ralph finds her there. Instead of losing faith in her he corners Deerforth, having had advance information from Soper, whom he caught robbing his safe. Deerforth is defeated in a terrible fight between the two men. Helen Sinclair is saved from her folly. Deerforth also is defeated in his plan to hold up Ralph, and Helen Vincent comes to the knowledge of her love for Ralph.
