In July 1994, the Corporation received cash in the amount of approximately
$5 million from an insurance carrier related to a favorable judgment resulting
from a lawsuit pertaining to environmental clean-up at one former wood treating
site.  The proceeds are not included in the June 30, 1994 balance sheet and 
will be credited to the environmental accruals in the third quarter.  
Additionally, in late July, the Corporation was notified by the U. S. 
Environmental Protection Agency that it is a potentially responsible party at a
former wood treating site in Panama, Oklahoma.  The Corporation is attempting
to determine the estimated clean-up costs at this site.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
- - ------------------------------------------------
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- - ---------------------------------------------

As of June 30, 1994, the working capital ratio for the Corporation remained 
strong at 3.15 to 1 compared to 2.78 to 1 at December 31, 1993.

In the first quarter, Joslyn spent $2.5 million on the purchase of the assets 
of the  Poleline Hardware Division of the Stanley G. Flagg Company which 
consist of fiberglass and iron cast poleline hardware.  Other significant 
reasons for the net $8.8 million decrease in Cash and Cash Equivalents are 
summarized in the Condensed Statement of Cash Flows.

Significant Balance Sheet fluctuations between June 30, 1994 and December 31, 
1993 were 1) Receivables were $5.7 million greater primarily because sales in 
May and June 1994 were $6.0 million, or 18.5%, greater than in November and 
December 1993 and 2) Accounts Payable was $3.1 million, or 25.3%, less on June 
30th due to the short-term timing of payments.

In July 1994, the Corporation received cash in the amount of approximately 
$5 million from an insurance carrier related to a favorable judgement resulting 
from a lawsuit pertaining to environmental clean-up at a former wood treating 
site.  The  proceeds from the settlement will be credited to the environmental 
accrual in the third quarter.  In a separate environmental related event in 
late July, the Corporation received a letter from the United States 
Environmental Protection Agency (U.S.E.P.A.) stating that the Corporation is a 
potentially responsible party at a former wood treating site in Panama, 
Oklahoma.  The Corporation is reviewing the materials provided by the 
U.S.E.P.A. and is attempting to determine the estimated clean-up costs at this 
site.

Overall, the net sales and operating income decreased 3% and 13%, respectively, 
for the most recent quarter compared to the corresponding quarter of 1993 
primarily due to a shift in product mix to lower margin products and delays in 
the introduction and market acceptance of new products.

The Electrical Technologies segment net sales and operating income decreased 
10% and 18%, respectively, for the second quarter of 1994 compared to the 
corresponding quarter in 1993.  The 1993 second quarter was a record quarter 
for this segment.  Increased performance by Joslyn Jennings did not offset weak 
quarters by Joslyn Power Products and Joslyn Electronic Systems Corporations. 
Slower than expected introduction and acceptance of new products in this 
segment contributed to weaker performance.  Joslyn Sunbank and Air-Dry 
Corporations are also contending with increased competitive factors in the 
current defense market.

The Utility Systems business segment's net sales and operating income increased 
12% and 22%, respectively, in the second quarter of 1994 compared to the second 
quarter of 1993 as sales of the hardware products and sales of the new product 
line of fiberglass and iron cast poleline hardware contributed to improved 
performance.  Due to shifts of product mix and less international sales, 
Electrical Apparatus' operating income was less despite greater sales.

Joslyn's gross profit margin in the second quarter of 1994 slipped almost 1% as 
a percent of sales to 26.6% from the corresponding quarter of 1993 primarily 
due to shifts in product mix and reduced sales volume.

Overall, the net sales and operating income decreased 5% and 12%, respectively, 
for the six months ended June 30, 1994 compared to the corresponding period of 
1993 primarily due to a shift in product mix to lower margin products and 
delays in the introduction and market acceptance of new products.

For the six months ended June 30, 1994, net sales and operating income of the 
Electrical Technologies segment decreased 11% and 15%, respectively, from the 
six months ended June 30, 1993 primarily due to disappointing performances by 
Joslyn Power Products and Joslyn Electronic Systems due to weak markets and 
slower than anticipated customer acceptence of new products.  Joslyn Jennings 
partially offset the disappointing performances with significant improvement in 
sales and income.

The Utility Systems segment net sales and operating income improved 7% and 2%, 
respectively, on a year-to-date basis over the corresponding period of 1993.  
The Hardware products contributed strong increases in sales and operating 
income.  The Electrical Apparatus products sales were slightly less but the 
operating income was off more than the sales primarily due to the product mix.

Joslyn's year to date gross profit margin in of 1994 slipped 1/2% as a percent 
of sales to 27.0% from the corresponding period of 1993 primarily due to shifts 
in product mix.

                             OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings
         _________________
         On July 27, 1994, the Registrant received a General Notice Letter 
         from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S.E.P.A.)
         regarding the Rab Valley Wood Preserving site located in Panama,
         Oklahoma.  The Letter notified Registrant that it is a potentially
         responsible party and requested Registrant to indicate its 
         willingness to participate in future response activities at the site.
         The Registrant is reviewing the materials provided by the U.S.E.P.A. 
         and will respond accordingly.

         ___________________________________________________
                  
         At its April 27, 1994, Annual Shareholders' meeting, the Registrant
         submitted three proposals which were voted on by its Shareholders:

               serve until the next Annual Shareholders' meeting.

               There were no abstentions and no broker non-votes for any of the
               nominees for director.  The number of votes cast for, or 
               withheld, for each nominee for director are as follows:

                                               For            Withheld
                                               ___            ________
               
               William E. Bendix            6,272,716          48,468

               Richard C. Osborne           6,258,508          62,676        
               Lawrence G. Wolski           6,271,831          49,353

         2.    The Shareholders also ratified the appointment of Arthur 
               Andersen & Co. as the Registrant's independent public 
               accountants for the year 1994.

                      For               Against            Abstentions

                   6,264,221             43,939               13,024


         3.    The Shareholders approved a proposed amendment to the 
               Registrant's Articles of Incorporation that would limit the 
               personal liability of the Directors to the Registrant and its
               Shareholders for damages arising from breach of fiduciary duty.  
               The amendment was authorized by a change in the Illinois 
               Business Corporation Act of 1983 that became effective 
               January 1, 1994.

                      For               Against            Abstentions
