01:26 Pedro! Pedro!
01:28 What happened?
01:30 My back. She hurt so.
01:33 Where's Sally?
01:35 [Music]
01:39 Tom, the locker and the tool shed.
01:42 [Music]
02:03 Help!
02:05 [Music]
02:08 Help!
02:10 [Music]
02:18 Help!
02:20 [Music]
02:25 Sally!
02:27 We've got to get out of here. The whole building's on fire.
02:30 [Music]
02:38 [Music]
02:46 [Music]
02:49 Help!
02:51 [Music]
03:00 Here, get into this.
03:02 [Music]
03:13 Are you game, Sally?
03:15 [Music]
03:25 [Music]
03:35 [Music]
03:58 Feeling better, Pedro?
04:00 Much better, thank you.
04:01 Senorita Sally?
04:02 I'm all right, Pedro.
04:03 Take Pedro into town. I'll stay here and help fight the fire.
04:06 [Music]
04:10 [Footsteps]
04:19 And because of Ranger King's prompt action,
04:21 the fire was confined to a small portion of the field, doing comparatively little damage.
04:25 How do we know other attempts won't be made?
04:28 We've been working on that, Barton.
04:29 The oil companies will pool all their explosives, and the Rangers will take complete charge of the supply.
04:34 If it's agreeable to you, Mr. Crawford, none will be released without your signature.
04:39 I'll be glad to take that responsibility.
04:42 And now I'm going to tell you, gentlemen, something in strict confidence.
04:46 This telegram is from the Council of Defense in Washington,
04:49 notifying me that Professor Nelson is arriving on the Limited this afternoon.
04:53 And who is Professor Nelson?
04:55 He's a scientist who's developing a formula for aviation fuel which will revolutionize long-distance flying.
05:01 Sounds interesting.
05:02 His process will enable bombers to fly twice the distance with half the usual gasoline load.
05:08 Any man that can accomplish that should be guarded while traveling.
05:11 He is carefully guarded.
05:13 What worries me is making sure nothing happens after he gets here.
05:16 Well, gentlemen, I think that's all.
05:19 Miss Prane?
05:20 No, Tom.
05:21 Do you mind waiting here a few minutes?
05:22 Of course not.
05:24 How about you and me figuring out some means of protecting him?
05:30 I'll be glad to.
05:32 You've got to move fast, Lynch.
05:45 What's up?
05:46 There's a man arriving this afternoon on the Limited.
05:48 He's an important man, and I don't want him to arrive.
05:51 We'll take care of him on the train.
05:53 He's too heavily guarded for that, and we won't have a chance once he gets here.
05:56 Well, how will we handle it?
05:57 The Limited reaches mile-long tunnel this afternoon at 4.43.
06:01 Will he have any soup?
06:03 I've thought of that.
06:05 Get a hold of Shorty and Nick.
06:08 Have them go to the warehouse.
06:11 We're from the El Monte outfit.
06:20 Got an order here for some explosives.
06:23 I'll bring it out to you.
06:35 A couple of men from the El Monte outfit are waiting.
06:42 Four cans.
06:46 That's a heap of explosives.
06:47 Crawford's signature is on the order.
06:50 It must be okay.
06:52 Here they are.
07:05 We'd better handle this stuff carefully.
07:10 We sure will.
07:13 [Hooves clopping]
07:15 Hiya, Pedro.
07:39 Buenos dias, muchacho.
07:41 Everything quiet in town?
07:43 Oh, pretty quiet.
07:45 Look.
07:47 This is the signature of Senor Crawford.
07:49 No explosives are to be given anyone without it.
07:52 Well, you're a little late, but I guess there's no harm done.
07:55 What do you mean?
07:56 The El Monte people just picked up four cans.
07:58 Here's their order signed by Crawford.
08:00 But how could that be?
08:03 Hey, look.
08:05 This one looks what you call a little fishy.
08:10 Yeah.
08:12 King is with Crawford right now.
08:14 We'd better phone him right away.
08:16 Just in case they get suspicious.
08:24 Operator.
08:28 Hey, the line is dead.
08:31 Which way did these men go?
08:34 East.
08:37 Get for the King right away.
08:39 I'll trail them and mark the way with strips of this.
08:41 Right.
08:43 [Hooves clopping]

09:15 [Hooves clopping]
09:17 [Hooves clopping]
09:34 [Hooves clopping]
09:36 Boys are late.
09:51 You think we ought to get that stuff over to Mile Long Tunnel?
10:03 My orders were to bring it here.
10:05 There won't be much time before that limit is due.
10:07 Ah, stop worrying. There's time enough to blow off that train.
10:10 [Hooves clopping]
10:12 Why don't you take a load off your feet? You're making me nervous.
10:38 That Mexican Ural is running away with our explosives.
10:41 Don't shoot. You'll hit that explosive.
10:48 We'll follow him.
10:51 Those shots are coming from the shack.
11:04 Those shots are coming from the shack.
11:06 He's got the explosives.
11:29 We can't take a chance shooting.
11:32 Yeah, I'll stop him.
11:34 [Hooves clopping]
11:36 [Gunshot]
11:41 [Hooves clopping]
11:43 Lucky you came along.
12:09 Take care. We gotta get the tunnel ahead of the limited.
12:12 Get his horse.
12:16 You're King's Mexican pal, ain't you?
12:20 Busquen sabe, senor.
12:23 You'll talk plainer than that later on.
12:26 [Hooves clopping]
12:28 [Hooves clopping]
12:30 [Hooves clopping]
12:32 [Hooves clopping]
12:34 [Gunshot]
12:55 [Hooves clopping]
12:57 Get your hands up, ranger, and drop that gun.
13:14 We sort of thought you'd show up to join your pal.
13:22 Now get moving.
13:25 [Hooves clopping]
13:27 Now you two wise guys can sit down in here and think this thing over.
13:42 Get over at that table.
13:45 [Gunshots]
13:48 [Hooves clopping]
13:50 [Gunshots]
14:04 [Hooves clopping]
14:16 [Gunshots]
14:18 Where'd they explode it?
14:30 Four of them left with it.
14:32 They're going to blow up the limited train at the mile-long tunnel.
14:34 The person else is on that train.
14:36 Caramba, we must get there quick.
14:38 [Hooves clopping]
14:40 [Train whistle]
14:52 [Train whistle]
15:04 [Train whistle]
15:06 Coming through in five minutes.
15:17 Well, there's the tunnel.
15:21 Here!
15:27 Rangers, there they are!
15:29 Keep on working, Kramer. We'll hold them off.
15:32 [Hooves clopping]
15:34 [Gunshots]
15:42 [Gunshots]
15:54 [Train whistle]
16:00 [Train whistle]
16:02 That's the limited. I'll try to stop it before it gets to the tunnel.
16:06 Cover me.
16:07 Well, I'll keep them busy.
16:09 [Gunshots]
16:11 [Train whistle]
16:18 [Train whistle]

16:27 [Gunshots]
16:46 [Gunshots]
16:50 [Explosion]
16:53 [Explosion]
16:55 Fire off the second one. It's to get to the other end of the tunnel.
17:01 [Explosion]
17:05 [Explosion]
