Stolen Secrets is a 1924 American silent mystery film directed by Irving Cummings and written by Rex Taylor.
That night the Eel pulled two more sensational jobs, both of them within the political group declared by the former police chief to be shielding criminals.
The mayor’s daughter Cordelia (Myers), blonde, pretty, intelligent and adventuresome, took the matter of helping her father into her own hands and an interview was arranged with the Eel through the personal columns of the morning paper.
The Eel desired certain papers, he told the girl, which should present a clear expose of the mayor’s opposition and the graft involved.
Three men stepped into the room and he and the girl were trapped on a neat count of burglary and in a wonderful position for a blackmail shakedown.
