THE TOAST OF NEW YORK.

Jim Fisk (Arnold) and Nick Boyd (Grant) talk tight-fisted businessman Daniel Drew (Donald Meek) into selling them his shipping company. Drew seeks help from Fisk, only to have him turn the situation to his own advantage. Fisk's greed grows beyond all reason and he tries to corner the market in gold. The federal government finally intervenes by releasing its gold reserves, bankrupting Fisk in the process.
