Synopsis:
Congo Bill is sent into the jungle to arrest Louie Logan for conducting illegal trade with the natives. Louie has been selling them whiskey which, when consumed, causes the tribesmen to turn violent. Aided by a local witch doctor, Louie escapes Bill's custody and flees into the jungle. Bill is then led into a trap and presumed dead. Louie then flees the area by boat. However, Bill survived the trap and meets up with Louie on the boat. Louie falls overboard and is eaten by crocodiles.
