REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Plan Administrative Committee
of the Harsco Corporation Savings Plan:

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Harsco 
Corporation Savings Plan listed in the index on page 3 of this Form 
11-K.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the 
Administrative Committee.  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, the financial statements referred to above present 
fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits 
of the Plan as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in net 
assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 1993 in 
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the 
basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules 
of Assets Held for Investment Purposes and Reportable Transactions 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 Employee Retirement Income Security 
Act of 1974.  The Fund Information in the statement of net assets 
available for benefits with fund information and the statement of 
changes in net assets available for benefits with fund information 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 plan benefits of each fund.  The supplemental schedules 
and 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.

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company changed 
its method of accounting for participant withdrawals in 1993.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF SAVINGS PLAN


1.  General Description of Plan:

The following description of the Harsco Corporation Savings Plan 
("Savings Plan") provides only general information.  Participants should 
refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the 
Plan's provisions.

The Savings Plan is a defined contribution plan designed to comply with 
the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 
("ERISA") and with the requirements for qualification under Sections 
401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code").

All employees (including officers) who receive a stated weekly, hourly, 
monthly or annual rate of compensation and are employed by Harsco 
Corporation (the "Company") or any subsidiary of the Company in the 
United States, its territories and possessions are deemed "Covered 
Employees" with the exception of any such employees represented by a 
collective bargaining agent unless the collective bargaining agreement 
expressly provides otherwise.  Any Covered Employee who has completed at 
least one thousand (1,000) hours of service during the twelve (12) month 
period beginning with the date of commencement of his employment is 
deemed an "Eligible Employee".

To participate in the Savings Plan, an Eligible Employee must elect to 
contribute to the Plan through payroll deductions each pay period in 
whole percentages from 2% to 16% of compensation received for services 
as an employee of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company.  The 
participant shall designate what percentage of such contributions will 
be "After-Tax Contributions" and what percentage will be "Tax-Saver 
Contributions."  A participant who makes Matched After-Tax and/or 
Matched Tax-Saver Contributions in an aggregate amount of 6% of his 
compensation may also elect to contribute from 1% to 10% of his 
compensation as an Unmatched After-Tax and/or Unmatched Tax-Saver 
Contribution.  In no event during the year may (a) Matched After-Tax and 
Matched Tax-Saver Contributions exceed 6% of compensation, (b) Unmatched 
After-Tax and Unmatched Tax-Saver Contribution exceed 10% of 
compensation or (c) Tax-Saver Contributions exceed the amount specified 
by the Internal Revenue Service code which is $8,994.  Tax-Saver 
Contributions shall constitute a reduction in the participant's taxable 
income for purposes of Section 401(k) of the Code but for the purpose of 
the Company's tax deductions, shall be considered contributions made by 
the Company.  After-Tax Contributions will be considered to be the 
participant's contributions to the Savings Plan and shall not constitute 
a reduction in the participant's taxable income for the purposes of 
Section 401(k) of the Code.

Pursuant to the Savings Plan, the Company will make monthly 
contributions either wholly or partially in cash or Common Stock of the 
Company to the Trustee for the account of each participant in an amount 
equal to 50% of the first 6% of such participants' compensation 
designated as Matched After-Tax Contributions and/or Matched Tax-Saver 
Contributions.  These contributions are referred to as "Company 
Contributions".

While the Company has not expressed any intent to discontinue the Plan, 
it reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time or discontinue 
contributions thereunder.  In the event such discontinuance resulted in 
the termination of the Plan, the net assets of the Plan would be 
distributed to plan participants and beneficiaries in proportion to 
their respective account balances.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Basis of Accounting:

The financial statements of the Savings Plan are prepared under the 
accrual method of accounting.

Payment of Benefits:

In 1993, the Savings Plan adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and 
Accounting Guide, "Audits of Employee Benefits Plans", requiring that 
amounts allocated to withdrawing participants not be reported as a 
liability in the statement of net assets available for plan benefits.  
As a result, the Plan recorded a cumulative effect adjustment at the 
beginning of 1993 of $570,430.  This represents the amounts allocated to 
withdrawing participants but not yet paid at December 31, 1992.  Prior 
year's financial statements were not restated.

Investment Valuation:

The Harsco Corporation Common Stock is stated at market value, which 
represents the closing price of the stock on the Composite Reporting 
Tape of the stock exchanges on the last day of trading of the calendar 
year.  The Participant Group Annuity Contracts with Metropolitan Life 
Insurance Company (Metropolitan), are stated at cost plus accrued 
interest with principal and interest guaranteed by Metropolitan.  Based 
on available information at December 31, 1993, the Company believes that 
the fair value of the Metropolitan Group Annuity Contracts is not 
significantly different from cost plus accrued interest.  The Fidelity 
Magellan Mutual Fund shares in the Managed Equity Fund are stated at 
market value, which represents the closing price of the fund on the last 
trading day of the calendar year.  The Vanguard 500 Portfolio Index 
Trust Mutual Fund shares in the Indexed Equity Fund are stated at market 
value, which represents the closing price of the fund on the last 
trading day of the calendar year.  Short-term investments, which 
represent the temporary investment of funds until purchases of common 
stock are completed, are invested in the CoreStates Liquidity Fund.

Other:

The plan presents in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available 
for Benefits with Fund Information the net appreciation (depreciation) 
in the market value of its investments which consists of the realized 
gains or losses and the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on those 
investments.

Fund A and Fund C, described in Note 3, are commingled and share 
proportionally in income distribution and realization of appreciation or 
depreciation on investments.

The purchase and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date 
basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Income from 
other investments is recorded as earned on an accrual basis. 

Both participants' and Company contributions are accrued in the period 
of the related payroll deductions.  Forfeitures, a result of withdrawals 
prior to full vesting in the plan, are used to reduce the amount of 
future Company contributions. 

3.  Investment Programs:

The Savings Plan, comprised of participants' and Company contributions, 
is divided into the following funds described below.

(1)  Fund A-(Common Stock purchased with Company contributions):  a fund 
consisting of Common Stock of Harsco Corporation purchased in the open 
market, from the Company, or through privately negotiated transactions 
to the extent permitted by rules of the New York Stock Exchange and the 
Securities and Exchange Commission.

(2)  Fund B-(Fixed Income Fund, consisting of investments purchased with 
participants' contributions):  a fund currently maintained through an 
agreement with one or more insurance companies or other financial 
institutions, designated by the Company, under which the insurance 
company or financial institution shall guarantee repayment of the 
principal and payment of interest at a fixed annual rate for a specified 
period of time in accordance with the terms of the agreement.  However, 
all participating employees earn interest at a pooled or "blended rate" 
which is determined each year and is based upon the applicable specific 
rates for the current and prior years.  Consequently, the blended rate 
for 1993 combines the specific rates for 1992 (6.26%) and 1991 (8.45%), 
with the 6.70% rate for monies deposited and redeposited in 1993.

(3)  Fund C-(Common Stock purchased with participants' contributions):  
a fund consisting of Common Stock of Harsco Corporation purchased in the 
open market, from the Company, or through privately negotiated 
transactions to the extent permitted by rules of the New York Stock 
Exchange and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(4)  Fund E-(Managed Equity Fund purchased with participants' 
contributions): a fund consisting of shares of the Fidelity Magellan 
Mutual Fund which is managed by Fidelity Management and Research 
Company, Boston, Massachusetts.

(5)  Fund F - (Indexed Equity Fund purchased with participants' 
contributions): a fund consisting of shares of the Vanguard 500 
Portfolio Index Trust mutual fund which is managed by the Vanguard 
Group, Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.

If at any time it is not possible for the Trustee to purchase Common 
Stock of the Company as required for Funds A and C, the Trustee will 
invest such funds in short-term obligations of the United States 
government or agencies thereof or in other types of short-term 
investments, including commercial paper (other than obligations of the 
Company or its affiliates).

Investment choices, which an Eligible Employee may elect, are as 
follows:

A.  Participant's Matched After-Tax and/or Matched Tax-Saver 
Contributions - At the time an Eligible Employee enrolls for 
participation in the Plan, he shall also elect to have his Matched 
After-Tax and/or Matched Tax-Saver Contributions invested in accordance 
with 1 or 2 below, depending upon whether or not he has attained the age 
of fifty-five (55).

1.  Under Age Fifty-five (55) - In multiples of 25% in Funds B, C, E 
and/or F provided at least a minimum of 50% of the first 6% of the 
Contribution is in Fund C.

2.  Age Fifty-five (55) and over - In multiples of 25% in Funds B, C, E 
and/or F in any combination thereof.  No minimum percentage is required 
to be in any of these Funds.

B.  Participant's Unmatched After-Tax Contributions and/or Unmatched 
Tax-Saver Contributions - At the time of enrollment for participation in 
the Plan, or as of any subsequent enrollment date, a Participant who 
elects to make Unmatched After-Tax and/or Unmatched Tax-Saver 
Contributions shall also elect to have such Contributions invested, 
whether or not he has attained age fifty-five (55), in multiples of 25% 
in funds B, C, E and/or F in any combination thereof.  No minimum 
percentage is required to be in any of these Funds. 

There were 3,518 participants at December 31, 1993 who participated in 
one or more of the four investment funds.  At December 31, 1993 the 
number of participants selecting each of the investment funds for their 
contributions was as follows: 

   Harsco Corporation Common Stock            3,416
   Fixed Income Fund                          1,764
   Managed Equity Fund                        1,256

5.  Subsequent Event:

(1)  On January 1, 1994 FMC Corporation and Harsco Corporation formed a 
joint venture known as United Defense, L.P.  Harsco's BMY-CS Division 
will be jointly owned with FMC holding a majority interest of 60 percent 
and Harsco holding the remaining 40 percent.  According to the 
provisions of the agreement, the partnership will establish as part of 
its' Partnership Benefits Plans a Partnership 401(k) Plan which will be 
a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Code.  As soon as 
practicable after the establishment of the Partnership 401(k) Plan, 
subject to the receipt of all appropriate governmental actions, FMC and 
Harsco, respectively, shall cause the trustee of its 401(k) Plan(s) to 
transfer to a Partnership Master Trust established in connection with 
the Partnership 401(k) Plan (a) the number of shares of FMC or Harsco 
stock held under its 401(k) Plan for plan participants and (b) cash, 
cash equivalents or other securities with a readily determinable market 
value such that the total of (a) and (b) shall equal the fair market 
value of the assets of the respective FMC and Harsco 401(k) Plans 
representing the account balances of plan participants as of the date 
such assets are transferred.  At December 31, 1993 there were 722 
participants in the Harsco Corporation Savings Plan that will transfer 
into the Partnership 401(k) Plan when established.

(2)  Effective January 1, 1994 Harsco Corporation Savings Plan II was 
merged into the Harsco Corporation Savings Plan.  As a result of this 
merger, the remaining 122 participants in Plan II at December 31, 1993 
that are not transferring into the Partnership 401(k) Plan will be 
included in the Harsco Corporation Savings Plan.

6.  Federal Income Taxes:

The Company received a determination from the Internal Revenue Service 
on October 3, 1986, that the Plan, as amended July 1, 1985, is a 
qualified plan under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue 
Code and is therefore exempt from Federal income taxes under the 
provisions of Section 501(a).  Further amendments have been made to the 
Plan since July 1, 1985 and additional amendments are anticipated to be 
made in order to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue 
Code as amended.  The Company believes that the Plan, as amended, is 
currently designed and being applied in compliance with the applicable 
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and intends to submit the Plan 
to the Internal Revenue Service for a determination of continued 
qualification.

As to the Federal Income Tax status of the employee with respect to the 
Plan, see "Description of Federal Tax Considerations", Exhibit (3), 
incorporated by reference.
