Plot

James Trevlyn's father, who is battling profiteers working to corner the wheat market, is murdered. James leaves his mine work out west to pick up where his father left off on wall Street. The profiteers foment a Bolshevist strike at Trevlyn's mines in his absence. Eleanor locates a James Trevlyn look-alike at a mission house who takes his place on Wall Street to allow the real James to travel back west to take control of the mines. James is kidnapped and his look-alike is bribed and changes sides. James is mistaken for a wanted murderer and has to re-establish his identity.
