WFEKSORDFRS TROOPS READY
 FOR MINC0 co,
(By the Associated Press)


 Washington, Aug. 25.-An urgent apeal for federal troops to restore order and prevent further lawlessness upon the part of striking miners in Mingo county, West Virginia, was re- ceived today by the United States war department from Governor Mor- gan of West Virginia. The governor in his appeal declared that not less than 1000 men are needed to insufe tranquility in the Mingo region.
 Secretary of War Weeks immedi- ately issued orders for troops at Fort Benjamin Harrison to be in readi- ness. An order for them to proceed to Mingo county, however, had not been issued this atternon, so far as could be learned.

RISE COTTON
 UP S5 POINTS

Continuing the bouyant ascent which begun on Monday morning, the cotton markets scared again today, the fourth successive day of the up- ward movement. At the high mark today prices stood more than 100 points over yesterdays close and had attained advances of $10 and more per bale over the close on last Sat urday. The close was slightly off from the best of the day, the net gains averaging around 85 points.
 Alarming reports of crop dete2io- ration, especially in Texas, the pas sage of the war finance boards ex- port bill and big demand for cotton goods which has sprung up suddenly and unexpectedly are factors said to be responsible for the most preten- tious bull movement in cotton that has been since last January. It ap- pears to be the antithesis of the situ- ation of about one year ago, when precipitate declines were daily oc- currences in cotton.
 New York October and December contracts each registered net gains of S3 points today, the former clos ing at 14.95 cents and the latter at 1929 cents. New Orleans October gained S9 npints, closing at 14.6S cents, and @sDecember advanced 81 points to 14.91 cents at the close.
 Spots in New York were marked up S5 points to 15 cents, and in New Orleans spots advanced 100 points to 1413 cents.

Announcement of Release.
The Senator. in spite Of the condi-
ton which had been made when he
had entered Russia, had insisted on
discussing Mrs. Harrison's case. had
seen Lenine himself and had literally
worn down the opposition by the per-
sistence with which he argued for her
release. 1t was impossible to imagine
he told The Russian officials, anything
which would do more to make for
good relations between Russia and
America than the release of this wom-
an on whose behalf a United States
senator from her own state appealed,
and the release of other American
prisoners. So the railroad journey
out Of Russia began, the former pris-
oner hardly able to believe her good
fortune.
And sc finally the cable from Mr..
Watson that the senator and Mrs.
Harrison had arrived in Riga and then
a cable direct to The Sun from Mrs.
Harrison herself. with all it meant
to her friends in this country. Her
own story is that she was always
treated with respect and that, whine

as the authorities had I give. Even

lease. The Senator had. from the
earliest days of the Soviet republic,
been its most conspicuous friend in
America. He was the only United
States Senator, who advocated the
opening OF trade relations with that
government. In the senate and out
he had fought for that end. When
Ludwig C. X Martens. unofficial

came here. Senator France befriended
him. When he was deported Senator
France delivered a speech in Madison
