ITEM 5.  Other Events.

                                       (i)

In 1995, Illinois Tool Works Inc. ("ITW") has acquired all of the
issued and outstanding shares of each of the following companies
companies in exchange for shares of ITW common stock:

COMPANY NAME                            DESCRIPTION OF          DATE
                                        BUSINESS                CONSUMMATED

Jemco Engineering Company               Indicator Lights        May 31, 1995
Fibre Glass-Evercoat Company, Inc.      Body Fillers &
                                        Finishing Products      May 31, 1995
Foamseal, Inc.                          Adhesives &
                                        Application Equipment   May 31, 1995
United Silicone Inc.                    Pad Printing &
                                        Hot Stamping Equipment  June 5, 1995


In May 1995, ITW also entered into an agreement with Hobart Brothers Company
("Hobart"),  a manufacturer of welding equipment and consumables, mreby ITW
would acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Hobart in exchange
for shares of ITW common stock.  Although ITW is in the process of responding
to a request for additional information from the Federal Trade Commission the
pursuant to Hart-Scott-Rodino Act of 1976, this transaction is expected to be
completed in September 1995.

In July 1995, ITW also reached an agreement in principle to acquire all of
the issued and outstanding shares of a distributor of fastening equipment and
fasteners in exchange for shares of ITW common stock.  The transaction is
expected to be completed by July 31, 1995.

The acquisitions of the above companies (the "pooled companies") will all be
accounted for as poolings of interests in
conformity with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16 ("APB 16").
However, since the combined impact  of the pooled companies on ITW's
consolidated financial statements is not significant, the ITW consolidated
financial statements for 1993, 1994, and  the first quarter 1995 will not be
restated.

                                       (ii)

In addition to the acquisition of the pooled companies discussed above, ITW
has also acquired several other operations (the "purchased companies")
in 1995 which will be accounted for as purchases in accordance with APB 16.
The cumulative impact of the purchased companies on the ITW consolidated
 financial statements is not significant.

                                       (iii)

Although none of the pooled companies or the purchased companies individually
constitute a significant subsidiary within the meaning of Rule 1-02 (v)
of Regulation S-X, nor were the acquisitions related transactions, the
cumulative effect of all of the acquisitions in (i) and (ii) would meet the
significant subsidiary test.  Therefore, the pro forma financial information
for the combined pooled companies, which constitute a majority of the
acquisitions made by ITW in 1995, is set out in item 7(b).

ITEM 7(b)  Pro Forma Financial Information

The following unaudited pro forma combined statements of income and the
unaudited pro forma combined statement of financial position give effect to
the acquisitions of the pooled companies by ITW
as if they had occurred on (i) January 1, 1995 for the statement of income 
for the three months ended March 31, 1995, (ii) January 1, 1994 for the 
statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1994, and (iii) March 31,  
1995 for the statement of financial position.  The results shown do not 
purport to reflect the results that would have occurred had ITW acquired the
the pooled companies on January 1, 1995, March 31, 1995 or January 1, 1994, 
or which may occur in the future.

The data presented is based on the historical consolidated financial
statements of ITW and the pooled companies for the periods ending
March 31, 1995, and December 31, 1994, and as of March 31 1995.
