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

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Operating revenues for the first quarter of 1995 were 2% higher than for
the first quarter of 1994 due to rate increases authorized for certain
subsidiaries.

During the first four months of 1995, two regulated subsidiaries received
rate orders which are expected to provide approximately $1.5 million in
additional annual revenues.  Twelve subsidiaries have rate increase
applications on file before regulatory agencies which, if granted in full,
would provide approximately $100 million in additional revenues.

The 51.9 billion gallons of water sold in the first quarter of 1995 was 3%
less than the 53.3 billion gallons sold in the first quarter of 1994.
Residential, industrial and other customers accounted for 31%, 33% and 35%,
respectively, of the 3% decrease.

Operating expenses for the first quarter of 1995 remained at essentially
the same level as a year ago. Lower operation and maintenance expenses were
the result of significant efforts to improve productivity and milder winter
weather conditions.   Depreciation expense was higher due to growth in
utility plant in service. Higher general tax expense reflects higher
property values and increased gross receipts. Income taxes increased as a
result of increased earnings.

Income deductions, primarily interest, were 2% higher for the first three
months when compared to 1994.  This increase can be attributed primarily to
an increase in debt.

Net income to common stock was $12.6 million for the first quarter of 1995
compared with $9.4 million for the same period in 1994.

Capital Resources and Liquidity
- --------------------------------
During the balance of 1995, the Company plans to issue shares of common
stock through its Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan, the
Employees' Stock Ownership Plan, and the Savings Plan for Employees.
Proceeds from the issuance of common stock will fund additional equity 
investments in subsidiaries.

One regulated subsidiary issued $3.0 million of long-term debt during the
first four months of 1995.  In addition, the Company invested $2.0 million
in the common stock of the subsidiary.  The proceeds from these financing
arrangements have been used to fund construction programs and repay bank
borrowings. It is anticipated that some subsidiaries will sell long-term
debt to institutional investors and common stock to the Company during the
remainder of 1995, with the proceeds used to repay bank loans and fund
construction projects. 

In late April, the Company announced that its subsidiary, Pennsylvania-
American Water Company (PAWC), has agreed to purchase the water utility
operations of Pennsylvania Gas and Water Company(PG&W), a subsidiary of
Pennsylvania Enterprises, Inc.(PEI), for approximately $409 million. The
acquisition is contingent on, among other things, the approval of the
Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission and the stockholders and certain
debt holders of PEI and PG&W.  The acquisition will serve a population of
approximately 400,000 people in 62 communities in northeastern
Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania-American Water Company will fund the acquisition of the water
utility operations of Pennsylvania Gas and Water Company, if approved,
through short-term debt. The short-term debt will be refunded through the
issuance of long-term debt and the sale of common stock to the Company.
