1)  Discontinued Operations
    -----------------------
     In September 1994, the Corporation announced plans to
seek offers for the purchase of its Finance business
segment, comprised primarily of its Financial Corporation
subsidiary.  Proceeds of the sale are expected to exceed the
carrying value of the Corporation's investment in this
segment.  The net assets, results of operations and cash
flows of the Finance segment have been reflected as
"Discontinued Operations".  The Statements of Income and
Cash Flow for the three months ended March 31, 1994 have
been restated to conform with the 1995 presentation.

Summarized financial information for the Finance segment is
as follows (in millions):

   In January 1995, the holders of $3.4 billion in ITT
Financial term debt consented to a merger of ITT Financial
with the Corporation.  The merger was completed on May 1,
1995. ITT Corporation is the surviving corporation and is
the obligor on the debt.

   In late March, the Corporation completed the sales of
certain assets of ITT Financial for $4.1 billion. Proceeds
were used to repay Financial debt. The remaining assets of
ITT Financial are expected to be disposed of in the 1995
second quarter.


2) Acquisitions
   ------------
   A cash tender offer for all outstanding shares of Caesars
World, Inc. for approximately $1.7 billion was completed in
late January 1995.  The acquisition was accounted for using
the purchase method.  Accordingly, the purchase price was
allocated to assets acquired based on their estimated fair
values.  The purchase price exceeded the fair value of the
net assets acquired by approximately $1.1 billion.  The
Consolidated Income Statement includes the results of
Caesars World from February 1, 1995, the date of
acquisition.

   The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative
of results that would have occurred had the acquisition
taken place at the beginning of the respective periods.

   The Corporation, in a partnership with Cablevision
Systems Corporation, completed the acquisition of Madison
Square Garden Corporation (MSG) on March 10, 1995 for
approximately $1 billion.  The acquisition of the
Corporation's 50% interest in MSG required initial funding
of $610 million.  The Corporation's share of the results of
MSG are included in the Consolidated Income Statement from
the date of acquisition.

ITEM 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of
          Financial Condition and Results of Operations



     Net income for the first quarter of 1995 was $228
million or $1.91 per fully diluted share ($2.05 per primary
share) compared with $202 million or $1.54 per fully diluted
share ($1.63 per primary share) in the 1994 first quarter.
After-tax portfolio gains in the 1995 first quarter totaled
$13 million or $0.11 per fully diluted share compared with
$33 million or $0.26 per fully diluted share in the 1994
quarter.  Sales and revenues for the first quarter were $6.5
billion, a 26% increase over the $5.2 billion in the 1994
quarter (both periods exclude ITT Financial which has been
treated as a Discontinued Operation).

     Income from ongoing segments for the first quarter rose
by $86 million (28%) compared with the 1994 quarter.

     Operating results in the Insurance segment rose (4%)
over the 1994 quarter reflecting reduced catastrophe losses.
When excluding the effects of extraordinary catastrophe
losses and capital gains, results were down 10% from 1994.
The 1994 quarter benefited from unusually good results in
the workers compensation line of business, due to
legislative reform and managed care initiatives.  Revenues
in the segment rose by 14%.  Excluding operations in runoff,
the worldwide combined ratio improved to 102.0% compared
with 104.7% in the 1994 quarter.

Insurance operating costs and expenses were as follows:

</TABLE>


     ITT Automotive operating income increased 60% in the
quarter, reflecting in part the contribution of the
Electrical Systems, Inc. acquisition which was completed in
the 1994 second quarter.  Excluding this acquisition,
operating income rose in the quarter reflecting higher
volume in several product lines and the continuing benefits
from cost reduction programs.  The improved results were
registered despite pricing pressure and higher material and
labor costs.  Sales increased 53% compared with the 1994
quarter.

     Operating income at Defense & Electronics increased 45%
in the quarter reflecting growth in Electronics and higher
margins at a number of Defense units.  Sales and revenues
approximated the 1994 quarter.  Order backlog was $2.4
billion at March 31, 1995 compared with $2.1 billion at
March 31, 1994.

     Operating income at Fluid Technology was up 6% for the
quarter when compared with the prior year, mainly the result
of higher volume at ITT Flygt and lower operating costs.
Sales improved 16% for the period, primarily the result of
higher volume.

ITEM 2.  (Continued)


     At ITT Sheraton, operating income improved
significantly from the 1994 quarter as a 58% improvement at
the hotels was partly offset by a $3 million decline in the
gaming division.  Average rate at ITT Sheraton's owned and
leased properties (excluding the newly acquired CIGA hotels)
rose 16% to $124 compared with the 1994 first quarter
accompanied by an occupancy improvement of three percentage
points to 71.5%.  ITT Sheraton generated operating cash flow
(earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization) of $73 million in 1995 compared with $48
million in the 1994 first quarter.

     The results of Caesars World have been included in the
1995 quarter for the two months since the date of
acquisition.  Caesars World generated revenues of $171
million, operating cash flow of $35 million and operating
income of $21 million in the months of February and March,
1995.

     Operating income and sales and revenues at
Communication and Information Services for the first quarter
were ahead of the 1994 quarter.  The improvement in results
was due to the acceleration of the publishing schedule in
Holland and higher royalties in Japan at ITT World
Directories and higher student enrollment and tuition price
increases more than offsetting the operating costs of newly-
opened schools at ITT Educational Services.

     Dispositions and Other reflects the sales and operating
losses of companies previously divested as well as ITT
Community Development.  The 1994 quarter includes losses on
the sale of several non-strategic Electronics businesses.

     Interest expense, net of interest income, increased
from $20 million in 1994 to $86 million in 1995, the result
of higher debt levels related to 1994 and 1995 acquisitions
and share repurchases.  "Other" consists of corporate
expenses, minority equity and non-operating income and was
essentially flat when compared with the 1994 quarter.

     Income taxes increased in the first quarter of 1995
versus 1994 due to an increase in pretax income from
continuing operations.  Income taxes related to Discontinued
Operations and Cumulative Effect of Accounting Changes are
reflected within those captions separately on the income
statement.  The Corporation's effective tax rate was 34% in
the quarter compared with 33% in 1994.

     Discontinued Operations related solely to the Finance
segment in the 1995 quarter and to both Finance and Forest
Products in 1994.  The first quarter results at ITT
Financial were above those of the prior year.  The Forest
Products segment (ITT Rayonier) was spun-off to shareholders
on February 28, 1994.  Net income for the quarter in 1994
included $12 million ($0.09 per fully diluted share) of
earnings prior to the spin-off.

ITEM 2.  (Continued)


     The comparison of net income with 1994 is impacted by
certain unusual items.  While both the 1995 and 1994 quarter
included capital gains in the insurance portfolio, results
for the 1995 quarter are adversely affected $18 million or
$0.15 per fully diluted share for losses on the
Corporation's 70% interest in CIGA, SpA as well as
acquisition financing costs.  This is the first full quarter
in which CIGA operated under the Corporation's control and
the losses are not expected to continue.  Results for the
1994 quarter included three cumulative catch-up adjustments
for accounting changes; (1) a favorable adjustment of $42
million after tax or $0.33 per fully diluted share for a
change in the discount rate used to determine certain
workers' compensation liabilities at the Insurance
segment,(2) a charge of $36 million after tax or $0.29 per
fully diluted share for the adoption of SFAS No. 115 related
to accounting for certain investments in debt and equity
securities, and (3) a charge of $17 million after tax or
$0.13 per fully diluted share to expense certain marketing
and start-up costs at ITT Educational Services which were
previously deferred. The 1994 quarter was also unfavorably
impacted by $40 million after tax or $0.31 per fully diluted
share for catastrophe losses in excess of expectations at
the Insurance segment related to the California earthquake
and winter freezes.  Excluding these items and discontinued
operations, net income and earnings per share rose 9% and
20%, respectively, in the 1995 first quarter compared with
the 1994 first quarter.


 Cash Flow

     The Corporation completed the acquisitions of Caesars
World and 50% of Madison Square Garden in the first quarter
for $2.3 billion.  Temporary financing was provided through
the Corporation's commercial paper program.  In addition,
the completion of the sales of certain businesses of ITT
Financial in late March, April and early May generated gross
proceeds of $10.2 billion, all of which was used to repay
Financial debt.

     During the 1995 first quarter, the Corporation
generated $371 million of cash from operating activities, up
from $310 million in the 1994 quarter.  The increase is due
primarily to the timing of cash flows and lower working
capital requirements.  Cash was used for capital additions
($169 million) and to pay dividends to shareholders ($66
million and $140 million for the first three months of 1995
and 1994, respectively).  The 1994 dividend payment included
the payment of the 1993 fourth quarter and the 1994 first
quarter.  Both quarters also included repurchases of common
stock of $34 million and $28 million, respectively.

     Cash expenditures for plant, property and equipment,
including insurance activities, are projected to approximate
last year's level of $727 million for the full year.
Depreciation for the first quarter of 1995 was $138 million
compared with $113 million in the corresponding 1994
quarter.  Accumulated depreciation amounted to 36% of gross
plant at March 31, 1995, compared with the 39% at December
31, 1994.

ITEM 2.  (Continued)

Debt and Liquidity

     The Corporation's outstanding debt, with the Insurance
segment reflected on an equity basis and excluding
discontinued operations, was 52% of total capitalization at
March 31, 1995 (before recognition of the unrealized loss on
investment securities as required by SFAS No. 115) compared
with 41% at December 31, 1994.  The increase is reflected in
borrowings which total $7.8 billion at March 31, 1995
compared with $4.9 billion at year-end 1994.  Borrowings
increased primarily due to the acquisition of Caesars World
and a 50% interest in Madison Square Garden Corporation.
Proceeds from the sale of ITT Financial assets in the second
quarter as well as cash generated from operations are
expected to reduce debt as a percentage of total
capitalization in subsequent quarters.  Insurance debt at
March 31, 1995 of $1.5 billion remained unchanged from the
December 31, 1994 level.  When fully consolidating the
Insurance segment, debt was 56% of total capitalization at
March 31, 1995 compared with 47% at December 31, 1994.

     Stockholders equity increased $.9 billion during the
first quarter of 1995 due principally to a reduction in
unrealized losses on securities of $.6 billion and net
income of $.2 billion.  Under its share repurchase program,
the Corporation repurchased approximately 336,000 common
shares in the first quarter of 1995 at an average price of
$91.80 per share for a cash cost, including commissions, of
$31 million.

                PART II.    OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     Reference is made to Item 3 of ITT's Form 10-K Annual
Report for the year ended December 31, 1994, in which ITT
reported that Hartford Fire Insurance Company, a subsidiary
of ITT, together with other companies, associations and
organizations involved in the business of property and
casualty insurance and reinsurance, was named as a defendant
in a group of lawsuits filed by Attorneys General of 20
states and by various private parties in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of California.  All
of the suits, which were filed in 1988, 1990 and 1991, were
based upon allegations that the defendants violated federal
and/or state antitrust laws by reason of their activities in
connection with the development of new standard commercial
general liability policy forms by the Insurance Services
Office, an industry organization.  In June 1991, the Ninth
Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals reversed the United States
District Court for the Northern District of California which
had granted summary judgment in September 1989 in favor of
all defendants, including ITT Hartford.  On June 28, 1993,
the Supreme Court reversed the Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of
Appeals, holding that the domestic insurers, including ITT
Hartford, had not lost their McCarran-Ferguson Act exemption
from the antitrust laws generally, as a result of activities
alleged in the complaints, but remanded the case for further
proceedings to determine if certain of those activities came
within the "boycott" exception to the McCarran-Ferguson Act
exemption.  On October 3, 1994, ITT Hartford announced that
it, along with the other 31 defendants, had settled this
lawsuit.  The settlement provides for a payment of $36
million, the majority of which funds will be used to create
a public entity risk institute and national public risk
database.  It also calls for changes in control of Insurance
Services, Inc., a nationwide organization which develops
standardized policy language and compiles information
insurers use to determine their own insurance rates.  The
settlement agreement was given preliminary approval by the
U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
Following notice of the settlement to all class members in
the private actions a hearing on final approval of the
settlement was held on March 29, 1995 at which time the
Court granted its approval.

Notes:

a)   The adjustment for distributions in excess of (less
  than) undistributed equity earnings and losses represents
  the adjustment to income for distributions in excess of
  (less than) undistributed earnings and losses of companies
  in which at least 20% but less than 50% equity is owned.

b)   The interest factor attributable to rentals was
  computed by calculating the estimated present value of all
  long-term rental commitments and applying the approximate
  weighted average interest rate inherent in the lease
  obligations and adding thereto the interest element assumed
  in short-term cancelable and contingent rentals excluded
  from the commitment data but included in rental expense.

c)   The dividend requirements on preferred stock of ITT
  have been determined by adding to the total preferred
  dividends an allowance for income taxes, calculated on the
  effective income tax rate.
