King of Wireless Wiretappers Outsmart a Michigan Lumberman
Gideon Collins, a Michigan timber magnate, travels to New York and in a string of poker games and a crooked bookmaking scheme with W S Galloway, a real estate broker, loses and regains $51,000 while exposing a wireless betting scam and a con artist. Collins defeats the crook Tracy, recovers his money, and ends with Thompson’s cautionary tally amid a final sting.
