                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
                    ----------------------------------------


To the Central Illinois Public
Service Company:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of the CENTRAL ILLINOIS PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY MASTER LONG-TERM
SAVINGS TRUST (which includes the Central Illinois Public Service Company
Employee Long-Term Savings Plan and the Central Illinois Public Service Company
Employee Long-Term Savings Plans, IUOE No. 148 and IBEW No. 702) as of December
31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements of changes in net assets avail-
able for benefits for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1993.  These financial statements and the schedules referred to below are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and the schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Central
Illinois Public Service Company Master Long-Term Savings Trust as of December
31, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedule of allocation
of changes in net assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial
statements.  The supplemental schedule of reportable transactions and schedule
of assets held for investment purposes are presented for purposes of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974.  The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                    NOTES TO COMPARATIVE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1)  Summary of Plans' Provisions
     ____________________________

     - Description of Plans

          The Central Illinois Public Service Company Master Long-Term Savings
          Trust (the "Master Trust") was established April 1, 1985 to serve as
          the funding medium for the Central Illinois Public Service Company
          Employee Long-Term Savings Plan (the "Executive and Wage and Salary
          Plan"), the Central Illinois Public Service Company Employee Long-
          Term Savings Plan - IUOE No. 148 (the "IUOE Plan") and the Central
          Illinois Public Service Company Employee Long-Term Savings Plan -
          IBEW No. 702 (the "IBEW Plan") (collectively, the "Plans").  The
          Plans, defined contribution plans subject to the Employee Retirement
          Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), were adopted to provide a
          systematic means by which certain eligible employees of Central
          Illinois Public Service Company (an Illinois corporation and a
          subsidiary of CIPSCO Incorporated) (CIPS or the "Company") and
          affiliated employers adopting a Plan (collectively, the "Employers")
          may adopt a regular savings program and to provide federal income tax
          benefits resulting from participation in the Plans.  Except for
          eligibility requirements and Participants' ability to make rollover
          contributions under the Executive and Wage and Salary Plan effective
          January 1, 1993, the Plans are substantially identical.  Participants
          should refer to the appropriate plan agreement for a more complete
          description of the plans' provisions.

     - Plan Administration

          The Plans are administered by separate committees (the "Committees"),
          which currently consist of five members approved by the Company.  The
          Committees have the power to adopt rules and regulations as deemed
          necessary or advisable to carry out the Plans in accordance with
          their terms.  No member of the Committees who is an employee of the
          Company may receive any remuneration for services in the capacity as
          a member of the Committees.  The Boston Safe Deposit and Trust
          Company, (the "Trustee") acts as trustee under the Master Trust.













                                      4<PAGE>
          All expenses to administer the Plans, including the fees and expenses
          of the Trustee, are paid by the Company, except as provided in the
          Plans.  All transaction fees of an investment fund are paid from the
          assets of that investment fund.

     - Investment Funds

          The Plans provide for the following Investment Funds (the "Funds"):

          The CIPSCO Common Stock Fund invests in CIPSCO common stock which it
          purchases on the open market from time to time.  The Boston Safe
          Deposit and Trust Company, as Trustee, handles the purchases and
          sales of CIPSCO common stock.

          The Bond Index Fund invests in the Wells Fargo Bank Bond Index Fund,
          which is a stratified sample of bonds from the Lehman Brothers
          Government/Corporate Bond Index (the "Bond Index").  The Bond Index
          is comprised primarily of U.S. Government, U.S. Agency and corporate
          bonds.

          The S&P's 500 Equity Index Fund invests in the Wells Fargo Equity
          Index Fund.  The objective of this fund is to match returns of the
          Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Index with a high degree of accuracy.

          The Money Market Fund invests in the Boston Safe Deposit and Trust
          Company's Daily Income Fund, which provides for investment and 
          reinvestment in short-term marketable, fixed-income obligations. 
          Investments consist primarily of repurchase agreements backed by U.S.
          Government guaranteed collateral, high grade commercial paper,
          certificates of deposit, bankers' acceptances and U.S. Treasury and
          Government Agency short-term obligations.

          The Growth Equity Fund invests in a separately managed portfolio
          consisting primarily of diversified stocks and cash equivalents
          managed by Investment Advisers, Inc.

          The Participant Loan Fund consists of amounts loaned to participants
          as provided for in the Plans.

     - Employee Eligibility

          Each employee of the Employers receiving regular salary or wages who
          has completed one year of service (defined as a twelve month period
          during which an employee has completed at least 1,000 hours of
          service) and has attained the age of 21 is eligible to become a
          Participant.  Eligible employees who are part of the Local 148 or
          Local 702 bargaining unit may participate in the IUOE Plan or IBEW
          Plan, respectively, and all other eligible employees may participate
          in the Executive and Wage and Salary Plan.






                                        5<PAGE>
          As of December 31, 1993 (1992 and 1991), each fund had the following
          number of participants:  CIPSCO Common Stock - 1,656 (1,579 and
          1,052), Bond Index - 686 (621 and 429), S&P's 500 Equity Index -
          1,214 (1,129 and 803), Money Market - 710 (765 and 737), Growth
          Equity - 1,303 (1,196 and 754).

     - Plan Contributions

          The Plans permit a Participant to make contributions to the
          applicable Plan through payroll reductions from 1% to 15% of the
          Participant's compensation (as defined) from the Employers.  The Tax
          Reform Act of 1986 limited the maximum annual amount that may be
          contributed by a Participant to $8,994 in 1993.  In 1994 the maximum
          amount will be $9,240.  The Employers transfer to the Master Trust
          the amount designated by the Participant as the payroll reduction
          from compensation.  The amount so designated is credited to an
          account established for the Participant (the "Participant's Account")
          and is invested as directed by the Participant in one or more
          investment funds.  Contributions made are transferred at least semi-
          monthly to the trustee.  The Plans have no provisions for matching
          funds from the Employers.  Effective January 1, 1993, employees
          eligible to participate in the Executive and Wage and Salary Plan may
          make qualifying rollover contributions of amounts received as a
          distribution from a prior employer's plan.  Such contributions are
          also credited to the Participant's account and invested in accordance
          with the Participant's directions.

          The amounts in a Participant's Account are fully vested at all times.

          By filing written instructions semi-annually (quarterly effective
          April 1, 1993) with the respective Committees in accordance with the
          Plans, a Participant may suspend contributions to the Plan, change
          the percentage of payroll reductions, or change investment elections
          among the Funds for amounts already contributed to or on deposit in
          the Participant's Account and/or for future contributions.

     - Plan Withdrawals/Loans

          No withdrawals from a Participant's Account are permitted while the
          Participant continues to be employed by the Employers except that,
          upon compliance with the provisions of the Plan, one withdrawal may
          be made each year in limited cases of financial hardship.  In
          addition, Participants in the Executive and Wage and Salary Plan may
          make quarterly withdrawals of their rollover contributions and
          earnings thereon.

          Upon the application of a Participant, the applicable Committee may,
          in its discretion and in compliance with the Plan, direct the Trustee
          to make a loan to the Participant from the Participant's Account upon
          such terms as the Committee shall specify.  Participant loans are
          maintained in the Participant Loan Fund.  As of December 31, 1993
          (1992 and 1991), 328 (311 and 243) Participants had loans
          outstanding.



                                        6<PAGE>
     - Participant Distributions

          Upon termination of employment for any reason, a Participant will be
          entitled to receive the balance in the Participant's Account less the
          unpaid amount of any loan to the Participant (including accrued
          interest).  Generally, distributions will be made in a lump sum. 
          Certain qualifying Participants may receive their distribution in
          installments.  Certain distributions may be deferred until the
          Participant reaches age 70 1/2, dies, or requests earlier
          distribution (whichever occurs first).

          Amounts to be withdrawn by participants, but not yet paid by the Plan
          are included in net assets available for benefits.  Amounts to be

(2)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     __________________________________________
     
     The financial statements of the Master Trust are prepared on the accrual
     basis of accounting.

     Payroll withholdings represent contributions and employee loan repayments
     which are owed to the Plans as of December 31 resulting from accrued
     payroll.

     Investments in the CIPSCO Common Stock Fund are valued at the year-end
     published market prices.  Investments in the Equity Funds and Bond Index
     Fund are valued at net asset market value including accrued income on the
     last business day of each month.  Investments in the Money Market Fund are
     valued at cost plus accrued income.

     The change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments
     represents the difference between market value as of the valuation date as
     compared to the value of the assets at the beginning of the plan year or
     at time of purchase during the year; no actual sales have taken place. 
     Realized gains (losses) result from actual sales of investments in excess
     of or below the value of the assets at the beginning of the plan year or
     at time of purchase during the year.

(3)  Tax Status of the Plans
     _______________________

     The Plans are intended to qualify as deferred compensation plans under
     sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. 
     Qualification of the Plans means that a Participant will not be subject to
     federal income taxes on amounts contributed to the Participant's Account,
     or the earnings or appreciation thereon, until such amounts either are
     withdrawn by the Participant or are distributed to the Participant or a
     beneficiary in the event of the Participant's death.  Contributions to a
     Participant's Account reduce the gross income of the Participant for
     federal income tax purposes to the extent of the contributions.  The
     Company received favorable determination letters from the Internal Revenue
     Service dated March 7, 1986 concerning qualification of the Plans
     (Executive and Wage and Salary Plan and the IUOE Plan) under federal
     income tax regulations.  In addition, the Company also received a
     favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated
     December 8, 1986 concerning qualification of the Master Long-Term Savings
     Trust under federal income tax regulations.  The Company will apply for a
     determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service concerning
     qualification of the IBEW Plan under federal income tax laws and
     regulations by December 31, 1994.  The Company will also apply for new
     determination letters by December 31, 1994 for the other plans due to plan
     amendments required by changes in the law.  However, management believes
     that the plans are currently designed and being operated in compliance
     with requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and that the trust is tax
     exempt as of the financial statement date.

     Discussions of the federal income tax consequences of the Plans, including
     consequences on distribution of a Participant's Account, are contained in
     the Company's Employee Long-Term Savings Plan Prospectus (dated August 24,
     1992).

(4)  Investments
     ___________

     The following table presents investments.  Investments that represent 5
     percent or more of the plan's net assets available for benefits at year
     end are identified separately.
