INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Amended and Restated Crane Co. Savings and Investment Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets
available for benefits of the Amended and Restated Crane Co.
Savings and Investment Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 1995
and 1994, and the related statements of changes in net assets
available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements 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, such financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the
Plan at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the changes in its net
assets available for benefits for the years then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion
on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The
accompanying supplemental schedules of (1) assets held for
investment purposes as of December 31, 1995 and (2) reportable
transactions for the year ended December 31, 1995 are presented
for the purpose 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 Employment
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These schedules are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. Such schedules have
been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of
the basic 1995 financial statements and, in our opinion, are
fairly stated in all material respects when considered in
relation to the basic 1995 financial statements taken as a whole.

AMENDED AND RESTATED CRANE CO. SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 1995 and 1994
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The following is a brief description of the Amended and
Restated Crane Co. Savings and Investment Plan ("the Plan").
Participants should refer to the Plan agreement and amendments
for more complete information.
A. General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering
certain United States employees of Crane Co. and its
subsidiaries (the "Company"). The Plan is subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974 (ERISA).
B. Administration of the Plan
The authority to manage, control and interpret the
Plan is vested in the Administrative Committee of the
Company. The Committee, which is appointed by the Board of
Directors of the Company, appoints the Plan Administrator and
is the "named Fiduciary" within the meaning of the Employment
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (the "Act").
C. Participation
Subject to certain conditions, U.S. employees of
Crane Co. and three of its subsidiaries, Huttig Sash & Door
Company, UniDynamics Corporation, and effective January 1,
1995, Mark Controls Corporation, are eligible to participate
in the Plan following completion of one year of service, as
defined in the Plan document.
D. Contributions and Funding Policy
Participants may elect to contribute to the Plan from
two to sixteen percent (up to 10% pre-tax) of their annual
compensation (employees earning in excess of $66,000 are
limited to 6% of pre-tax and/or after-tax contributions) to
be invested in short-term, stock equity, bond, company stock
or fixed income funds selected by the participant. The
Company contributes on a matching basis an amount equal to
50%, of up to the first 6% of each participant's deferred
savings, which is invested in Company common stock. In
accordance with the Internal Revenue Code, participant pre-
tax contributions could not exceed $9,240 in 1995.
E. Expenses
Administrative expenses of the Plan are paid by the Employer.
In addition personnel and facilities of the Employer used by
the Plan for its accounting and other activities are provided
at no charge to the Plan.
F. Vesting
Employee contributions are 100 percent vested.
Vesting for employer contributions are as follows:
Years of Service Vested Interest
Less than 1 year None
1 year but fewer than 2 20%
2 years but fewer than 3 40%
3 years but fewer than 4 60%
4 years but fewer than 5 80%
5 years or more 100%
Participants whose employment terminates by reason of
death, permanent disability or retirement are fully vested.
Participants are fully vested upon the attainment of age
sixty-five (65).
G. Distributions
A participant whose employment with the Company
terminates can elect to receive all vested amounts, subject
to applicable tax law.
A participant may apply to the Administrative Committee
for a distribution in cases of hardship. The Committee has
the sole discretion to approve or disapprove hardship
withdrawal requests, in accordance with the Internal Revenue
Code.
Any part of a participant's Company contribution portion
which is not vested at the time of termination of employment
is forfeited and used to reduce future Company contributions.
H. Plan Termination
The Company expects to continue the Plan indefinitely,
but reserves the right to modify, suspend or terminate the
Plan at any time, which includes the right to vary the amount
of, or to terminate, the Company's contributions to the Plan.
In the event of the Plan's termination or discontinuance of
contributions thereunder, the interest of each participant in
benefits accrued to such date, to the extent then funded, is
fully vested and nonforfeitable. Subject to the requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code, the Board of Directors shall
thereupon direct either (i) that the Trustee continues to
hold the accounts of participants in accordance with the
provisions of the Plan without regard to such termination
until all funds in such accounts have been distributed in
accordance with such provisions, or (ii) that the Trustee
immediately distribute to each participant all amounts then
credited to their account as a lump sum.
I. Tax Status
The Plan received a determination letter dated March 3,
1995, in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the
Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable
sections of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, no
provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan's
financial statement.
J. Rollovers and Transfers from Other Plans
Rollovers and transfers from other qualified plans are
accepted by the Crane Plan. Rollovers and transfers
represent contributions of assets from other qualified plans
of companies acquired by Crane Co. and participant account
balances of new employees from other non-company qualified
plans.
K. Participant Loan Fund
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of
$1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50
percent of their account balance. Loan transactions are
treated as a transfer to (from) the investment fund from (to)
the Participant Loan fund. Loan terms range from 1-5 years
or up to 10 years for the purchase of a primary residence.
The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's
account and bear interest at a rate commensurate with local
prevailing rates. Interest rates range from 6 percent to 10
percent. Principal and interest is paid ratably through
monthly payroll deductions.
2. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

of Medusa Corporation on the date they were allocated to

the trustee based on the quoted market price of the
underlying securities. Guaranteed investment contracts are
stated at contract value, which approximates market value.
