Drama, USA, 1914



Andrews, a former shipping clerk, has amassed a fortune in cocaine and therefore discourages his daughter May's romance with Joe, a policeman. Andrews prefers socialite Roger Hastings, whom May marries but soon discovers is a drug addict. While May is recovering from a nervous breakdown precipitated by the knowledge of Roger's addiction, he slips some cocaine into her medication. Soon she also is addicted, a fact which Roger delightedly reports to Andrews. Andrews then commits May to a sanitarium and Roger becomes a procurer for a gang of white slavers. His sister Julia is abducted by the gang and taken to Roger's brothel, after which he attacks his employers. Julia is released, but after many complications Roger kills Andrews and then is killed himself in a fire. Finally, Joe rescues a newly cured May and the two are reunited.
