Fighting Destiny

On the eve of his wedding, reform politician Larry Cavendish sees his fiancée, Caryl Rundlege, emerge from a wrecked automobile and disappear with notorious one-armed political crook Dan Levarro. That night, Larry receives a note from Caryl canceling the wedding because she has a higher duty to perform. With a little help from the police, Larry disguises himself and locates Levarro and Caryl at a beggar's lodge. During a chase along the rooftops, Caryl is shot dead by a stray bullet and Larry pushes Levarro to the pavement. Larry carries Caryl's body through the underworld until he is captured in a Chinatown opium den. When the police arrive and save him, Larry discovers that the dead girl was Caryl's twin sister, an opium addict whom Caryl was trying to help. The couple are reunited and the criminals are arrested.
