       Industries Inc., a manufacturer of electrical apparatus, anchors,
       hardware, insulators, hot-line tools, and other safety equipment. The
       acquisition was for $110 million in cash, of which the Company borrowed

In preparing the unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet and summary of
operations, adjustments were made to the historical financial statements to
reflect the reduction in the securities portfolio and investment income;
increase in short-term borrowing and interest expense; amortization of the
estimated goodwill of $76 million over 40 years; the repayment of existing debt
of A. B. Chance Industries, Inc.; and other estimated purchase accounting
entries. The pro forma statements are not indicative of the results that would
have been obtained if the operations would have been combined during 1993, nor
are they necessarily indicative of the results that may occur in the future.

ITEM 2      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                               September 30, 1994

                             Results of Operations
                             ---------------------

Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 1994 increased 27% over the
comparable period in 1993 due to the inclusion of A. B.  Chance Industries,
Inc. and improved sales at the Wiring Device, Industrial Controls, Premise
Wiring, Lighting and Raco operations partially offset by lower activity at the
Pulse Communications subsidiary.  Operating income increased 24%.  Year-to-date
results were similar with increases of 19% in net sales and 13% in operating
income.

Low Voltage segment sales increased 7% and 4% for the quarter and year-to-date
periods on higher shipments of wiring device, lighting, and industrial control
products as demand in the industrial and commercial markets improved.  Segment
operating income increased in line with the higher sales volumes.

Sales of the High Voltage segment increased more than 70% for the quarter and
more than 45% year-to-date due to the inclusion of A. B. Chance Industries,
Inc. and higher sales of insulators and surge arresters while demand for power
cable remained flat.  Operating income increased at approximately one-half the
rate of growth in sales volume reflecting the lower-margined products of the
acquired business.

Other Industry segment sales increased 36% for the quarter and 28% year-to-date
reflecting the inclusion of certain product lines of A. B. Chance (line
construction hardware and support and foundation anchors), as well as, improved
shipments of enclosures, fittings, switch and outlet boxes, and wire management
products which offset the lower sales of telecommunication products.  Segment
operating income increased by 20% for the periods reflecting the impact of the
reduced shipment of the higher-margined telecommunications products.  Due to
changed market conditions, the Company has reduced the scope of its development
program for telecommunication products and the Pulse Communications subsidiary
and Raynet Corporation terminated their joint development project.

Interest expense increased reflecting a higher level of short-term borrowings
which have been utilized by the Company to maintain its long-term investment
positions which have a current yield higher than the cost of short-term funds.
The effective tax rate for 1994 was 27% versus 26% in 1993.  Net income and
earnings per share increased by more than 16% for the third quarter and more
than 7% year-to-date, reflecting the acquisition of A.B.Chance in April and
gradual improvement in existing operations.

                        Liquidity and Capital Resources
                        -------------------------------

At September 30, 1994, notes payable of $139.3 million and long-term debt of
$2.7 million were 23.9% of shareholders' equity.  Working capital was $107.3
million and the current ratio was 1.3 to 1.0.
