IRON MARKET.

Cincinnati. May 25.-There is nothing the matter with the iron market, from the producers standpoint Things are going along quite as fast as is healthy and wholesome. Pittsburg has broken out into something of a speculative spirit but the conservative habit of the Pennsylvanians will prevent their do- ing anything that afterward they might be sorry for Bessemer is up fully S1.65 from the lowest point, mill iron $1; bar iron s, steel billets, $2@2.5O: skelp iron. $5; and other manufactured forms in proportion. Much of this advance is taken up by the increased cost growing out of the advanced wages to miners, coke makers, puddlers and steel workers. It is stated, with a good deal of confi- dence, that furnace coke will be s1.50 ton at ovens after July l. This would add another 25 to 35 cents a ton to the cost of iron.
 In southern irons there is just now less disposition to push an advance than among Pittsburg and valley furnaces. The 50c advance holds solid, and sales are being made nearly up to current out put of furnaces. There is no very large buying going on, however, and the feel ing of both makers and melters is that it is best to go a little slow and see what the country is going to do. Advances built on permanent gain in consump- ton will hold. Those based on Specula- tive sentiment will not. The increase of melt is unmistakable. It remains to be seen whether it is greater than the pros pective increase in production which the little rise will stimulate.
 The week closes with an active run of inquiries and orders, representing all kinds of iron. It should not be forgot ten, however, that many of the largest buyers have covered their wants for months ahead, and will not figure much in the market until fall.
