New York summary,

The following summary of the New
York list was telegraphed w. B.
Htbbs & Co. after close yesterday by
their New York correspondent:
Under the stimulus of an improved
demand for rails prices were gem
orally higher. The Hill issues and
the coalers were actively absorbed at
advancing prices without there being
anything special IN the news to ac-
count for the rise. The coppers were
sluggish, and the industrials. aside
from a few specialties, did not dis
play much animation.
Gold continues to be received from
Canada for the account of London. and
so far the selling of American issues
by the British as a result of the new
tax proposals, has not been very
great. The Mexican note for a time
provoked some uncertainty. owing TO
its curt tone; it seems quite likely
that the conditions in the South may
have to be reckoned with later on as
a disturbing element.
The approaching convention is, of
course, the chief topic of discussion.
If, as a result of the selection that
ts made, IL may be concluded that the
Progressives will unite on the same
candidate. then, in all probability a
strong incentive will be provided for
demonstration in the better class
of securities, but as far as the gen
eral run of industrials are concerned.
notably the Coppers. we believe that
the same should be liqUidated during
all periods OF firmnesS, rails being
substituted therefor"

DR.. KEMP'S LICENSE
REVOKED BY BOARD
Physician Convicted in 1913 Loses
Right to Practice After Investi
cation by Officials.

The board OF medical supervisors of the
District announced yesterday that it had
revoked the license of Dr. Thomas ]
Kemp to practice in the District. "A COPY
OF the resolution of the board has been
hied with John R. Young, clerk of tn.
District Supreme Court and with Health
Ofcer William c. Woodward
The action of the board was based on
the conviction OF DR.. Kemp for violation
of the postal laws in 1913 His sentence Of
two years in prison was commuted by the
President TO a fine of $500. Under the law
Dr. Kemp may appeal direct TO the Dis
trict Court OF Appeals.
-Four members of the board-Dr Greg.
[. Birdssll. DR.. Edgar P. Copeland. Fred
ertck \. Fonning and Walter B. Guy
voted to revoke the license. DR.. L D
Walter. the remaining member, opposed
the motion. DR.. Kemp was defended be-
fore the board by Attorneys Henry =
Davis and Rice Hooe. The case was
argued for the board by ATTORNEY H
Ralph Burton, OF the firm of McLanahsn
& Burton.
The board explained that its action was
not IN the nature Of an additional punish
ment for the physician. but is the result
OF an inquiry conducted TO determine the
htness of DR. Kemp to practice The
board decided that person convicted of
a crime Involving moral turpitude"
should not be allowed to practice.

STOCK TRADING
Norfolk and Western Takes
Lead, Supported by Lehigh
Valley and Others.

New York, June I.-Although there was
no stock market change today in respect
to an increase of activity, the total of
transactions being maintained at about
the average OF recent aggregates, there
was a continuation OF the display of
animation in special quarters which has
characterized the dealings lately. At
the same time the list exhibited frmer
strength jim practically ali directions with
a good deal of advancing aggressiveness
IN some descriptions. Except for a lit
Tie early heaviness when selling pres
sure was applied and resisted at slight
declines, the market throughout the day
evinced underlying stability which proved
somewhat disconcerting to the profess
sional trading element.
The leading feature of the day was the
rising leadership asserted by railroad
shares headed by Norfolk and Western,
with support from stocks like Lehigh VAL
ley, st. Paul. Great Northern. and North
ern Pacific. Norfolk and Western made
a large advance to a new high figure.
The course of railroad stocks seemed to
imply confidence that the conferences
which have started in the railroad labor
controversy. would have no disturbing
outcome Incidentally the remarka BILE
rate OF improvement in railroad earnings
was emphatically illustrated by the state
ment Of the Pennsylvania lines for April.

TRADE MOVEMENT
STANDS AT HIGH
Federal Reserve Board State
ment Shows Unfavorable
Crop Outlook.

Continued and widespread unrest on the
part OF labor, together with indications
that business activities in this country
have reached their high mark in the
present movement, are remarked on in
the monthly report of the Federal Re-
serve Board, made public here today.
A slightly less favorable outlook for some
growing crops in another comment of
what in many respects, is a publish
review OF conditions.
Reports TO the board show that mines
and oil wells are exceptionally active
that there is great activity in lumber
and building, and that except where con-
gestion at seaports is a factor, railroad
earnings are generally excellent. More
than an ample supply of loanable money
is reported.
The boards summary for the Richmond
district follows:
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS conditions are
reported fair. Cotton acreage has in
creased probably about 10 per cent To-
bacco manufacturers report an increase
in business. Lumber dealers report only
fair condition. Woolen mills are busy
Cotton mills are running at capacity,
