    Desc: Double Adventure: Directed by W.S. Van Dyke. With Charles Hutchison, Josie Sedgwick, Carl Stockdale, S.E. Jennings. Bob Cross is a newspaper reporter who, in trailing "Painter" Paul, a notorious crook, gets wind of a plot to kidnap Martha Steadman. The girl is grandniece of a millionaire named Biddle. Bob invades the Biddle premises, just in time to discover the body of Mr. Biddle after he has been murdered by his business associate, named Jules Fernol, who is in reality leader of a gang of crooks. Fernol has embezzled Martha's fortune and is trying to cover up one crime by committing another. Bob is so like the dead man's son, Dick Biddle, that the gangsters charge the crime to him, thinking to get him out of the way. Bob, realizing that he has been mistaken for another, allows himself to be sent to jail, but later, through collusion with the police, makes a getaway. He then begins an effort to rescue the girl from her danger and find the real murderer of Biddle.
