Item 1.  Financial Statements

The unaudited Financial Statements of Atlas-Energy for the Nineties-Public
#5Ltd. (the "Partnership") for the period April 1, 1997 to June 30, 1997

Item 2.  Description of Business

The Partnership has drilled and completed approximately 35.91 net wells to
the Clinton/Medina formation in Mercer and Venango Counties, Pennsylvania.
As of June 30, 1997 , all 35.91 net wells were in production. The first
quarterly distribution was on June 9, 1997 for natural gas production during
January, February and March 1997. 

Net Production revenue was $ 337,882 which  includes pumpers fees of $275.00 per
month per well  Expenses for this period include $75.00 per month per well
for administrative costs.

For the next twelve months management believes that the Partnership has
adequate capital.  No other wells will be drilled and, therefore, no
additional funds will be required. 

Although management does not anticipate that the Partnership will have to
do so, any additional funds which may be required will be obtained from
production revenues from Partnership wells or from borrowings by the
Partnership from Atlas or its affiliates, although Atlas is not
contractually committed to make such a loan.  No borrowings will be
obtained from third parties.

             NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

          ATLAS-ENERGY FOR THE NINETIES--PUBLIC #5 LTD.
                   A PENNSYLVANIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

                           June 30, 1997

1.      INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The financial statements as of June 30, 1997 for the six months then
ended have been prepared by the management of the Partnership without
audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Partnership believes that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  
In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
presentation have been included.

2.      SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Partnership uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil
and gas activities.  Costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas
properties, drill and equip wells and organizational and syndication costs
are capitalized.  Oil and gas properties are periodically assessed and when
unamortized costs exceed expected future net cash flows, a loss is
recognized by a charge to income.

Capitalized costs of oil and gas wells, leases and organization and
syndication costs are depreciated, depleted and amortized by the unit of
production method.
