Wayne is startled because he has gambled away the company's money and realizes that his books will not balance. Fortune appears to favor him when Grey is carried into the station unconscious as the result of an automobile accident. He extracts Grey's wallet from his pocket but Cole, the gambler, who has trailed Wayne gets a photograph of him in the act. With the photographic evidence, the gambler tries to blackmail Wayne. Helen and Edith who suspect Cole and have followed him to the gravel plant, see the men fight and seize the evidence with Wayne in close pursuit. Helen climbs to the top of a steam shovel to elude Wayne and falls through it into an open dump car and from that into a car loaded with dynamite. Unconscious of her danger she releases the brakes on this car from which she leaps to another train just before the wild car crashes into the Lone Point Station, blowing it to smithereens.
