Firm on a Moderate Volume of Buying Bit D J crease in the World' Available Supply. i'iiinr.n t.. -1. Confidence came hack today to buyers of wheat.

Cash sales here and assertions that-recent optimistic views as to improved crop ap pearance In the Central States were not fully borne out had considerable Influence.
