His report provides an overview of the operations of the Attorney General's office, including investigations into the American Ice Company and proposed telephone monopolies. The author describes the legal work his office undertook with respect to forest preservation, and discusses the need for a thorough investigation into the matter by a nonpartisan legislative committee. The report also provides insight into the ongoing prosecution of election crimes in the New York City metropolitan area, and criminal proceedings undertaken at the request of the governor. Jackson's report goes into detail on tax cases his office has handled, and provides updates on special franchise tax litigation. Of note is the discussion of cases involving charitable institution tax exemptions, and efforts to push delinquent corporations to pay taxes owed to New York City. Finally, the report covers the standing of the many receivership proceedings that the Attorney General's office was involved with.
