The spy gains the friendship of the Indian hillmen. Count Savanoff learns that Lieutenant Maxam has invented a powerful explosive. He plans to steal the formula. Savanoff discovers that Messiah, the commandant's servant, is the hillmen's spy. He secures the man's aid in an effort to steal the secret. The first attempt fails. Zurah, Maxam's servant, accidentally spills coffee on the Russian's coat. Maxam saves his servant from a beating at the hands of Savanoff. Zurah is grateful. The Russian spy and Messiah are searching for the formula in Maxam's room, when the lieutenant discovers them. They overpower the officer. Savanoff succeeds in finding the paper. He and Messiah kidnap Maxam and take him to the retreat of the hillmen, Zurah, suspecting something wrong, follows the men and learns of his master's predicament. The servant hastens back to the post and gives word of the abduction. Savanoff and the chief of the tribesmen plot the death of the British soldiers. The Russian prepares a quantity of the explosive and places it near the path along which the troops are to be lured. The hillmen encounter the soldiers who have been sent to rescue the lieutenant. A terrible battle takes place. The natives are driven back at the point of bayonet. In the rout that occurs, the hillmen forget the trap prepared for the English, and cross over the spot where the explosive is planted. A terrible upheaval wipes out the natives to the last man. A huge boulder strikes Savanoff, killing him instantly. Faithful Zurah leads the troops to Maxam's prison and the young lieutenant is released. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
