SYNOPSIS
Burgess and Greeley are rustling horses and shooting Indians. When they kill Manuel, they frame Lieutenant Allister. His older brother John now attempts to defend him at his murder trial.

Captain John Allister of the United States Cavalry discovers Deputy Sheriff "Red" Greeley and four companions in the act of attacking a group of Indians. Through a ruse, John proves that their accusation that the Indians were rustling horses was merely an excuse to steal the gold that the Indians were transporting to El Rio.
