Crimes At The Old Brewery

An unscrupulous villain calling himself Jack O'Lantern ruled a community of murderers, robbers and assorted cut-throats in a notorious tenement house, the Old Brewery, in New York's toughest crime area. True to history, this tale recounts events in its tunnels and shadowy passageways that made the crusading newspaper, the Police Gazette, write, "No crime is too vile, no tenant unwilling to participate." A reporter infiltrates and inflames public opinion with his news stories just before Jack makes a big mistake by kidnapping beautiful socialite Irene Felton. The vice squad prepares to demolish the structure, but its dangerous tenants have no intention of living elsewhere. Irene escapes with the help of the reporter just as Jack, attempting to solve the problem to his own advantage, destroys himself and the Old Brewery.
