          NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.   The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, which
reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) that
management believes necessary to present fairly results of interim
operations, should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements included in the Company's audited consolidated
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1994, which are
included in the Company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for such year
(1994 10-K).  Results of operations for interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of annual results of operations.  The balance sheet
at December 31, 1994 was extracted from the audited annual financial
statements and does not include all disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements.

2.   Claim liabilities (unpaid losses and unpaid loss adjustment expenses)
are periodically reviewed.  Any adjustments to claim liabilities are
reflected in current operations.  Liabilities for newly reported losses
have generally been provided based upon averages for claims reported
within the most recent 12 months; for other unpaid losses, case basis
estimates and calculated estimates for incurred but not reported losses
are used.  Liabilities for unpaid losses are stated net of estimated
salvage and subrogation.

3.   Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with
the 1995 presentation.

4.   On January 1, 1996, a New York Insurance Law will become effective
and is expected to impact the operating results of the Company.  Under the
new "Increased Limits Law", the minimum statutory limits for all
automobile insurance policies will be increased.  As a result of the
increased statutory limits, claims costs are expected to be higher and
premium rates will be increased.  The Company is currently unable to
estimate the impact, if any, that the increased statutory limits will have
on results of operations.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
        Results of Operations
     The following should be read in conjunction with Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
contained in the 1994 10-K.

     For all periods presented in this report, the Company has operated
profitably and net cash was provided by operating activities.

     Revenues for the nine month and three month periods ended September
30, 1995 increased by $10,673,000 and $2,217,000, respectively, over the
comparable 1994 periods principally as a result of increased earned
premiums, investment income and service fees.  The increases in earned
premiums stems from the combination of increased premium exposures,
principally in the assigned risk automobile and commercial lines, as well
as rate increases in assigned risk automobile.  The increases in
investment income are mainly attributable to the growth in invested assets
resulting from continued profitable operations and positive cash flows. 
Service fee income is higher than the comparable 1994 periods as the
Company has realized additional earned fees from the substantial increase
in service contracts which became effective in 1994. The net securities
losses in 1995 stemmed from the Company's strategy to shorten the average
duration of its investment portfolio.

     Losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred for the nine month and
three month periods ended September 30, 1995 increased by $13,797,000 and
$4,606,000 over the comparable 1994 periods.  Principally during the first
half of 1995, additional payments were made related to 1994 claims
(primarily automobile no-fault claims).  In addition, during the 1995
periods reserves were strengthened in workers' compensation and automobile
lines, principally as a result of revised loss development patterns.  The 
<PAGE>                                  


loss development may indicate that the new automobile business acquired
during recent years will have greater ultimate loss experience than
previously expected.  Should actual loss development prove to be greater
than expected, additional reserve strengthening will occur.  The Company
will continue to analyze loss development patterns on a quarterly basis
and evaluate the adequacy of its loss reserves.

     The combination of other underwriting expenses and the amortization
of deferred policy acquisition costs for the nine month and three month
periods ended September 30, 1995 increased by $1,465,000 and $289,000 over
the comparable 1994 periods. The nine month increase was principally the
result of a higher level of expenses associated with increased premium
volume coupled with an increase in amortization of acquisition costs
stemming from the growth in earned premiums. The three month increase
stemmed from an increase in amortization of acquisition costs.
