Attorney General Parsons
to Prosecute Cold
Storage Men.
PLANS CRIMINAL AND
DISSOLUTION SUITS
Exchange and Refrigerating
Plants Cooperating In Manip-
ulation of Supply In City.

Albany. Sept. 6.-The new Attorney
General, James A. Parsons, is about TO
begin wholesale prosecutions against
food sharks who have made the pres
emit war in Europe and other causes the
excuse for exorbitant increases in
prices. He charges that there Is 8
rigantic conspiracy to make food prices
soar, with which a large number OF
the cold storage and refrigeratlng
plants Of the state are connected. The
evidence was gathered by expert in
vestiagtors, who began their work un-
der Attorney General Thomas Car
mody, who has just resigned.
Mr.. Parsons declares that the md
ings Of the Investigators show that at
least one food exchange and number
Of cold storage plants in New York
City are cooperating in scheme to
manipulate prices. It is charged that
foodstuffs are higher when larger
quantities are stored in the food ware
houses, and that the recent rise IN
prices, which WAS attributed 20 the war
scare, in reality was caused by the food
shark combination.
The Attorney Generals investigators
have found that instead Of there being
q scarcity during the last two months
there have been boarded in the store
houses millions Of pounds Of food
tufts, which, il unlosded, would send
prices tumbling downward. The rule,
{ is said, has been to store quantities
far IN excess Of the current demand
and then to regulate the output in a
manner which would apparently Justify
The soaring Of prices.
To Dissolve Combination.
Attorney General Parsons intends TO
make the parties TO the alleged com
binRtion defendants in a proceeding
soon to be instituted, but he said to-
night that he was not ready to make
public their names. Besides bringing
criminal prosecutions, it is the inten-
ton Of Mr.. Parsons to dissolve the al
legged food combination.
$50 far as the inquiry Of this office
has proceeded" he said, at has devel-
oped that when food prices are high
est there are unreasonable quantities
OF foOdstuffs in storage. Naturally,
the high prices would force this food
out into the market, but this is not the
case. The law of supply and demand
does not figure, as far as my investiga
tors have been able to discover The
fact that at least one or two dealers
do not take advantage of the higher
prices in times like these and unbur-
den themselves Of the larger quaint
ties stored away, indicates to me that
there is an agreement between the
cold storage plants. propose to press
this investigation to the point where
The true facts will be brought to light.
There is ample power for this in the
laws OF this state
Attorney General Parsons, who as
deputy to MIR. Carmody handled the
food investigation. pointed out that at
one time during his investigation he
came upon a fragrant example Of the
price manipulation. His Investigators
brought to him information that when
eggs were selling at 45 cents dozen
IN New York City there were approx |
mately $4,000 cases in storage; when /
butter was at its highest price there
were 100000 pounds in storage; when

ALLIED ARMIES IN
 CLOSE FIGHTING RANGE.

PARIS, Sept 15.-An official com. munication issued by the French gov. ernment tonight says that the allied armies are in close contact with the Germans everywhere and that the forward movement continues between Mouse and Argonne.
 The text of the communication is as follows: "On our left wing our armies are in close contact with the enemy on the whole front from the heights north of the river Aisne and west and south of Rheims. On our center our forward movement be. tween the Argonne district and Mouse continues. It is absolutely untrue. as has been published, that army crown prince is besieging or bombarding Verdun. This city has never been at. tackled Only Fort Troyon, which is not part of the defense of Verdun. but protects the heights of Mouse has been bombarded"

BATTLE OF MARINE DRAWS TO CLOSE.

LONDON, Sept. 15.-The battle of Marne is about to come to an end although. the allied armies are keep ing in close touch with the retreating Germans. It is evident the latter are taking up positions to stay the north ward advance of the British and French.
 General Won Kluck with his army has made a stand north of the river Aisne or a line marked by the Forest L Aigle and Craonne. while the Ger man armies under Generals Won Bue. low. Von Hauser the Duke Wuertem- burg and the crown prince are falling back to straighten out a front on which the next big battle will likely be fought
 Although the Germans have been badly punished in their long retreat and have lost many guns and men, they maintain Cohesion and unless the French succeed in their attempt to get between the army of the crown prince, and those operating to the west of him, Emperor Williams forces will present a solid front when the time comes for another clash which will be fully as important as the recent battle.
 If the Germans can gain the new position it offers better opportunity for defense than the ground they have passed over during the last ten days Their right apparently extends as far west as St Quentin through a country intersected by river and streams that will embarrass the at- tacking forces.
 The main German armies under Generals Von Buelow. Von Hausen. the Duke of Wuertemburg and ths crown prince stretch along the river Aisne to the hills behind Rheims, then north to Verdun, thus securing the roads and railways running north from Rethal to the Belgian frontier and eastward to Luxemburg and Metz in Lorraine and thus by Boinglng the army of the crown prince of Bavaria more into line they will be covered on one wing by one of their own fortress at Metz.
 Some military experts are of the opinion the Germans win offer their next big resistance on the Mouse and that another battle of Sedan will be fought Lefore many days, Much must pass before this takes place. however.
 The allies at the last reports were keeping up keen pursuit with prob ably fresh troops. The French left with large forces of cavalry, some where reported as far north as the Belgian frontier, continue to harass the German right while the British and French forces which gained e passage over the Aisne, two days ago, are now somewhere between that river ard the river Oise, trying to repeat an outhanking movement which they carried out on the Ourcq last week
 Rheims has been reoecupied by the allies. but reports make no mention of the neighboring fortresses Lafere and Laon, the recapture of which should not be difficult as they are constructed to resist an attack from the north and the south front Is re- latively weak.
