Synopsis
Count Boris escapes from Russia during the Revolution with the crown jewels, intending to use them to aid his starving countrymen. Three international crooks--Carstock, Hansen, and Fogarty--plan to steal the jewels, but Hansen meets Marie en route to Yokohama and decides to go straight. They are all engulfed, including Boris, by an earthquake and trapped in a bank vault. Boris is slain. Hansen gets the jewels, which he promises to use helping the poor. He and Marie are rescued, and they plan to marry.
