He is given a one hundred thousand dollar bill by the superintendent. The news spreads and Soapy Smith and his gang get busy. Roberts takes passage on the "Circle City" for Seattle. Soapy and his pals dope some of the sailors from the ship, change clothes with them, and go aboard. They drug Roberts, but cannot find the bill. Later he pretends to give the money to Ruth Duncan, the skipper's daughter, with whom he has fallen in love. The crooks get the girl in their power, but again are baffled. They then determine to torture Roberts, but Ruth calls the crew to the rescue. The crooks are captured, and Roberts has the satisfaction of showing them where he has concealed the one hundred thousand dollar bill under the steamship label on his trunk.
