REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Participants and Administrator of the Savings and
Investment Plan of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company
In our opinion, the financial statements listed in the
accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects,
the net assets available for plan benefits of the Savings
and Investment Plan of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company
at September 30, 1994 and 1993, and the changes in net
assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
These financial statements are the responsibility of E. I.
du Pont de Nemours and Company as the Plan's Administrator;
our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these statements in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards which 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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.
As discussed in Note 8, the Plan changed its method of
accounting for benefit obligations related to distributions
currently payable to employees who withdrew funds from the
Plan.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on
the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The
additional information included in schedules 1 and 2 is
presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements but is
additional information required by ERISA. The Fund
Information in the statement of net assets available for
benefits and the statement of changes in net assets
available for benefits is presented for purposes of
additional analysis rather than to present the net assets
available for plan benefits and changes in net assets
available for benefits of each fund. Schedules 1 and 2 and
the Fund Information have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits 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.

SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT PLAN
OF
E. I. DU PONT DE NEMOURS AND COMPANY (THE "COMPANY")
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 -- DESCRIPTION OF SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT PLAN:
THE PLAN
The Savings and Investment Plan of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and
Company (the "Plan") is a defined contribution plan which was established by
the Company's Board of Directors and became effective September 1, 1955.
The purpose of the Plan is to encourage and assist employees in
following a systematic savings program suited to their individual objectives,
and to provide an opportunity for employees, at no cost to themselves, to
become stockholders of the Company. The Plan is a tax qualified contribu-
tory profit sharing plan. Any employee of the Company or its subsidiaries
(including Du Pont Merck Pharmaceutical Company (Dupont Merck), a general
partnership which has adopted the Plan) who has completed at least one year
of continuous service, as determined in accordance with the Company's service
rules, or who has been compensated for 1,000 or more hours in a period of
twelve consecutive months is eligible to participate in the Plan.
An eligible employee may authorize the Company to make a payroll
deduction under the Plan ranging from 1% to 22% of monthly pay. The amount
deducted can be deposited into a before-tax or after-tax account or some
combination thereof. Any amounts in excess of 16% are considered to be
cash supplemental deposits and must be deposited in the after-tax account.
The before-tax provision is permitted under Section 401(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code. Nondiscrimination rules of the Internal Revenue Code require
that the average savings rates in both the before-tax and after-tax accounts
of "Highly Compensated" employees (as defined by the IRS) should be limited
by the average savings rates of "Nonhighly Compensated" employees. At
September 30, 1994 and September 30, 1993, there was no limitation on the
after-tax savings rate (other than the plan limit) for the "Highly
Compensated" employees and the allowable before-tax savings rate was 13% in
both years. At September 30, 1994 and September 30, 1993, the allowable
before-tax savings rate for the "Highly Compensated" employees at Dupont
Merck was 12% and 11%, respectively. In addition, in accordance with
Internal Revenue Code, the Plan limited contributions by any employee to the
before-tax account to $9,240 in 1994 and $8,994 in 1993. The Company will
contribute an amount equal to 50% of the participant's savings deductions
during a month except that no company contribution will be made for any
participant's savings in excess of 6% of monthly pay. In addition, subject to
certain limitations, a participant is allowed to make lump sum savings
deposits in cash or through payroll deduction to the Plan at any time.
A participant with less than five years of participation credit,
who withdraws any matched before-tax or after-tax savings will forfeit a
portion of related company contributions in accordance with specific plan
provisions. Company contributions will be suspended for six months if a

participant withdraws any matched before-tax or after-tax savings or com-
pany contributions contributed to the account during the last two years
of participation or any earnings in the before-tax or after-tax accounts.
A participant who retires from active service may elect to make a full
account withdrawal in the later of the month in which employment was
terminated or March of the calendar year following the year in which the
participant attains age 70 1/2.
Participants may borrow up to one-half of their nonforfeitable
account balances subject to certain minimum and maximum loan limitations.
The loans are executed by promissory notes and have a minimum term of 12
months and a maximum term of 60 months, except for qualified residential
loans which have a maximum term of 120 months. The loans bear an interest
rate equal to the average rate charged by selected major banks to
prime customers for secured loans. The loans are repaid over the term in
monthly installments of principal and interest by payroll deduction. A
participant also has the right to repay the loan in full at any time without
penalty.
INVESTMENT FUNDS
The following investment funds have been established with trustees
for the investment of employee savings and company contributions. The nature
of the investments maintained in each fund is described below:
U.S. Savings Bond Fund -- United States Savings Bonds, Series EE in
$100 denominations. This fund was
eliminated as of May 1, 1993.
Fixed Income Fund -- Investments under agreement with one or more
financial institutions, including insurance
companies, banks and other investment
companies which provide for the return of
principal in full plus the payment of
interest at a predetermined rate for a
specific period of time. The fund's blended
rate of return for the 12 months ending
September 30, 1994 and September 30, 1993
was 8.7% and 9.3%, respectively.
Family of Mutual Funds -- A group of seven different mutual funds, each
with its own investment objectives, offered
through Fidelity Investments Institutional
Operations Company. As of January 13, 1993
these funds were transferred to similar
mutual funds at Merrill Lynch with the
exception of Magellan and Retirement Growth
which were combined into the Magellan fund.
The Magellan Fund continues to be shown under
the caption Family of Mutual Funds.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)
3-Way Asset Allocation Fund -- 3-Way Asset Allocation Fund with money
invested by Wells Fargo Nikko Investment
Advisors among stocks, bonds, and cash
(money market).
DuPont Common Stock Fund -- DuPont common stock.
Loan Fund -- Participant loans--amounts transferred from

DuPont Common Stock Fund and/or the 3-Way
Asset Allocation Fund that are loaned to

Merrill Lynch Funds -- A group of 5 different mutual funds each with
its own investment objective offered through

Participants may allocate their before and after-tax savings
deductions and company contributions among all funds at their discretion.
Amounts contributed by the Company were not used to purchase U.S.
Savings Bonds but could be allocated to any of the other funds at the
participant's discretion.
TRASOP transfers represent transfers to the Plan from the Tax
Reform Act Stock Ownership Plan sponsored by the Company. Acquisitions
(divestitures) represent transfers between the Plan and other qualified
trusts as the result of the purchase (sale) of certain Company businesses.
Affiliated company transfers in (out) represent the net movement of
participant account balances between the Plan and other Company sponsored
defined contribution benefit plans.
At September 30, 1994 the Plan participants directed their savings
and the related matching company contributions be invested in the following
funds (approximate number of participants in each fund): Fixed Income Fund
(82,400); Family of Mutual Funds (15,500); DuPont Common Stock Fund (49,600);
3-Way Asset Allocation Fund (6,600); Merrill Lynch (ML) Global Holdings
(5,700); ML Balanced Fund(2,300); ML Equity Index (8,200); ML Capital Fund

ADMINISTRATION
The designated trustee of all the aforementioned funds is
Merrill Lynch Trust Company of America (Merrill Lynch). The administration
of the Plan is vested in the Company which may designate one or more persons
to operate and administer the Plan. The Company has the responsibility of
appointing the trustees and the Vice President, Pension Fund Investment,
has the authority to designate the Plan's investment options. All
recordkeeping and trustee fees of the Plan are paid by the Company.
The administrative fees for the Fixed Income Fund are netted against the
investment income of these funds.
While the Company has not expressed any intent to terminate the
Plan, it is free to do so at any time. In the event the Plan is terminated,
all participants become vested and the distribution of all account balances
will be made based upon the valuation of the participant's account.
NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
For financial reporting purposes, the assets of the Plan are
reflected on the accrual and fair value bases of accounting. The provi-
sions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) require
presentation based on fair value. The fair value of the United States
Savings Bonds Fund is based on the redemption values for U.S. Savings Bonds
which are published by the Department of Treasury. U.S. Savings Bonds are
nonredeemable for a six month period subsequent to purchase. Such bonds
purchased within six months prior to the September 30 period-end are valued
at cost. The Fixed Income Fund guaranteed investment contracts, separate
account portfolios and synthetic guaranteed investment contracts are fully
benefit responsive and thus, are stated at cost plus accrued interest, using
the contracted interest rates applied to the daily account balances.
Investments in the Family of Mutual Funds, the DuPont Common Stock Fund, and
Merrill Lynch Mutual Funds, except for the Equity Index Fund, are stated at
fair value based on publicly quoted market prices. Investments in the
Merrill Lynch Equity Index Fund and the 3-Way Asset Allocation Fund are
stated at the fair value of all underlying assets as reported by the
applicable custodian. The fair value of loans to participants in the Loan
Fund represent the outstanding principal balances of the loans.
The unit value or price of the Fixed Income Fund, the 3-Way Asset
Allocation Fund, Merrill Lynch Mutual Funds and the DuPont Common Stock
Fund, reflect the prices at which participant's accounts are valued at the
end of the period reported. The "Net Asset Value" per share, or NAV, for
each Fund in the Family of Mutual Funds is computed by adding the value of
all portfolio holdings and other assets, deducting liabilities and then
dividing the result by the number of shares outstanding at month end.
Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company calculates each of
these Funds' NAV at the close of each business day of the New York Stock
<PAGE>

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)
Exchange. There is no unit value for the United States Savings Bonds Fund
and the Loan Fund since U.S. Savings Bonds and loans are identified directly
with participants' accounts. The Company may, at its option, issue DuPont
common stock in lieu of cash contributions to the DuPont Common Stock Fund
and also in lieu of cash dividends on DuPont common stock. The number of
shares issued is based upon the cash value of the contributions and dividends
divided by the market value of DuPont common stock at the end of the month
of issue. Shares of DuPont common stock are allocated to participants in
the DuPont Common Stock Fund based on the ratio of the amount deposited to
each participant's account to the total amount contributed to the Fund.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Gains and losses on the sale of
the DuPont Common Stock Fund investment securities are based on average
cost of the securities sold and are recognized on the trade date. Monthly
sales and purchases are netted to minimize brokerage fees.

NOTE 4 -- REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES
Realized and unrealized gains and losses are calculated based upon
historical cost of assets. Such gains and losses are computed on a current
value basis for Form 5500. The difference may result in a differing classi-
fication between realized and unrealized but the total gain or loss will be
unaffected.
NOTE 5 -- INCOME TAX STATUS
The Savings and Investment Plan is a qualified plan pursuant to
Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and the related Trusts are
exempt from federal taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code. A favor-
able tax determination letter has been received by the Plan. Accordingly,
no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying
financial statements. The Plan has been amended since receiving the
determination letter. However, the Plan Administrator and the Plan's tax
counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in
compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.
Participants in the Plan are not subject to federal income taxes
on account balances arising from employer contributions, tax-deferred
employee deposits, or accrued income until distributions or withdrawals
are made.
NOTE 6 -- CHANGE OF TRUSTEE AND RECORDKEEPER
Effective January 1993 the recordkeeping of the Savings and
Investment Plan was transferred to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
Incorporated. Concurrently with this move, Merrill Lynch became the Trustee
for the Fixed Income, Family of Mutual Funds, 3-Way Asset Allocation, DuPont
Common Stock, Loan and the Merrill Lynch Mutual Funds. Wilmington Trust
Company remained Trustee of the U.S. Savings Bond Fund until its elimination.

NOTE 7 -- WELLS FARGO CONVERSION
In November 1992, the Plan's position in the Wells Fargo 3-Way
Asset Allocation Fund was converted from Monthly (U.S. Tactical Asset
Allocation Fund) to Daily (U.S. Tactical Asset Allocation Fund E). This
conversion resulted in a change of the base unit value to $10 per share with
a relative change in shares held to ensure no gain or loss for participants.
The conversion was necessary to allow daily trading of the Wells Fargo Fund.
NOTE 8 -- ACCOUNTING CHANGE
The Plan changed its method of accounting for benefit obligations
related to distributions currently payable to employees who withdrew funds
from the Plan to comply with recently issued guidance for accounting and
disclosure by employee benefit plans. The 1993 financial statements have been
restated to reflect this change. Accordingly, net assets available for
benefits at September 30, 1993 and October 1, 1992 have been increased from
those previously reported by $2,019 and $4,392, respectively, and withdrawals
have been increased from those previously reported by $2,373 for the period
ending September 30,1993 (dollars in thousands).
Benefit obligations currently payable are as follows:
