   up. Many of Chicago's criminals are arrested, but Tintin
   pursues Bobby Smiles out west, where he and Snowy meet
   cowboys and Indians, strike oil, and get in a train wreck,
   a prairie fire, and get captured by a lynch mob. Smiles is
   captured, but then back in Chicago Snowy is kidnapped, and
   rescued, and a capitalist tries to grind both of them into
   corned beef, but a strike stops the factory. Tintin is
   kidnapped again from a banquet celebrating the victory over
   crime, dumped again in Lake Michigan tied to 400-pound
   dumbbells, which turn out to be made of wood. 355 suspects
   are then arrested, and Chicago's underworld is out of
