Item 1.     Security and Issuer.

            This statement relates to the Common Stock, no par value per share
(the "Common Stock"), of Allstate Financial Corporation, a Virginia corporation
(the "Issuer"). The Issuer maintains its principal executive office at 2700
South Quincy Street, Suite 540, Arlington, Virginia 22206.

Item 2.     Identity and Background.

            (a) This statement is filed by (i) C. C. Partners Ltd., a Texas
limited partnership (the "C. C. Partnership") with respect to shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock held by it, and (ii) Raffles Associates, L.P., a Delaware
limited partnership (the "Raffles Partnership") with respect to shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock held by it. The C. C. Partnership and the Raffles
Partnership shall sometimes be collectively referred to herein as the "Reporting
Person."

            (b) The Reporting Person filed an initial Schedule 13D for an event
of November 13, 1998 and an Amendment No. 1 for an event of June 24, 1999 (the
"Prior Schedules"). Except to the extent set forth in this Amendment, the
information in the Prior Schedules remains unchanged.

Item 3.     Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

            The Reporting Person beneficially owns less than 5% of any class of
equity securities of the Issuer and is therefore at this time terminating its
reporting obligations under Section 13 (d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of
1934.

Item 4.     Purpose of Transaction.

            The Reporting Person beneficially owns less than 5% of any class of

reporting obligations under Section 13 (d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of
1934.

Item 5.     Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

            (a) The number of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock and the
percentage of the outstanding shares (based upon 2,324,216 shares outstanding as
reported in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended
March 30, 1999) directly beneficially owned by each Reporting Person is as
follows:
