You Said a Hatful!
When he learns the secret news that it will be sold today at 4pm in Kansas City, international banker J.P. Anderson sets in motion a plan to purchase the Tippycanoe Tuckahoe & Tehachapi Railroad. He will arrive in Kansas City prior to the meeting with an offer the current owner can't refuse. He will go with his hapless secretary, Charley Chase, with the two switching places - Charley will pretend to be J.P., and J.P. will pretend to be Charley - so that J.P. can maneuver into the deal without attracting the attention of the other buyer who may want to kill him.

Third, Charley's banker's hat, which is really a magician's hat, displays its full magical capabilities. Fourth, they learn about their estimated time of arrival into Kansas City. And fifth, telegrams to J.P. and Charley respectively get crossed between the two.
