new YORK GUN GANG
NAbS MILLIONAIRE
Police Uncover Plot to Marry
Heiress and to Spend
Her Money.

Plot upon plot follow each 9TH
er closely in "The Fight for Mil
lions" which is just about the
cleanest, unique, old-fashioned
melo-drama that has been booked
at the Melbourne theater in
months. With scenes laid along
New York's famous waterfront
and in that city's millionaire
row" along Fifth avenue there
is plenty of opportunity for a
background of mystery. The
drama will be on the screen to-
day and tomorrow.
1t is a story of a wicked "gun
gang" which kidnapped one of the
city's richest millionaires because
the leader had matrimonial de-
signs on his daughter, and Incl
dentally, on his bank-roll. The
plot works splendidly, and were
1t not for Darwin Russell the
sweetheart of the heiress, and
the cunning of Delaney, a. detec-
tive, Sorenti, the villain, might
today be enjoying the charms of
the beautiful young woman and
spending her money.
The plot is ingenuously work
ed out as it doubles back and
forth, leaving the spectator in
suspense guessing as to how II
will turn out. The end comes
in a thrilling motorboat chase
by the police after the gang, in
and out of the crowded harbor
when the arm of the law finally
conquers.
Another big feature Is an
actual head-on collision between
two trains. Never before has
this feat been attempted by mo-
tion picture manufacturers. This
collision was actually staged by
the Gaumont company for their
news film and it provides about
as much excitement as could be
gathered together in Is minutes
any place. Whether the specta-
tor has been in a train wreck or
not, the sensation of seeing two
giant locomotives running at each
other at top speed and finally
meeting in deafening crash
that can easily be imagined, If
not heard, is indeed a novel one.

the body was found, discovered a
piece of window curtain, on which
there was blood. The curtain was
of the kind used in first class COM
partments of the railroad.
The police looked again at the
mysterious car. This time, on the
inner handle of the door, they dis
covered faint marks of bloody
hands.
Now Lepine's men began to seek
clues leading to the criminals.
The first one came from the man
who had been in the compartment
next to Madame Gouin. This man
said he had seen two soldiers who
got onto the train at Melun walk
ing in the passage-way of the train
near Madame Gouin's compar.~1ent
WHO WERE THOSE SOLDIERS
The police secured all the rail-
road tickets which had been used
by passengers on Train s26 on ths
day in question. Their object wal
to, find special tickets which had
been issued to soldiers.
What soldiers bought tickets al
the little station of Melun on that
day?
Grady and Michael, privates al
the army post there!
Secretly the police searched the
rooms of the two soldiers. In the
room of one they found bloody
bayonet. In the apartment of o
girl who was friendly with them
they found one of Madame Gouin's
rings.
