                 Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D

     This statement amends the Schedule 13D, dated September 26,
1994, as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated October 31, 1994 (the
"Schedule 13D"), filed by Dickstein & Co., L.P. ("Dickstein &
Co."), Dickstein Focus Fund L.P. ("Dickstein Focus"), Dickstein
International Limited ("Dickstein International"), Dickstein
Partners, L.P. ("Dickstein Partners"), Dickstein Partners Inc.
("Dickstein Inc.") and Mark Dickstein with respect to the Common
Stock, $1.00 par value (the "Common Stock"), of Lone Star
Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"). 
Notwithstanding this Amendment No. 2, the Schedule 13D speaks as
of its date.  Capitalized terms used without definition have the
meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

     I.  Item 3 of the Schedule 13D, "Source and Amount of Funds
or Other Consideration," is amended by adding the following
paragraph:

     "Since October 31, 1994 (the date the Reporting Persons
filed Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D), the Reporting Persons in
the aggregate have acquired an additional 202,800 shares of
Common Stock in the open market.  Dickstein & Co. acquired 72,000
shares at a total cost of $1,201,290; Dickstein International
acquired 104,800 shares at a total cost of $1,819,158; and
Dickstein Focus acquired 26,000 shares at a total cost of
$451,237.  Such amounts were funded out of each entity's working
capital, which may include margin loans made by brokerage firms
in the ordinary course of business."

     II.  Items 5(a) and 5(c) of the Schedule 13D, "Interest in
Securities of the Issuer" are amended and restated as follows:

     "(a)  The Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate of
1,233,937 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately
10.7% of the shares of Common Stock.  Dickstein & Co.
beneficially owns 792,927 of such shares of Common Stock
(approximately 6.9% of the shares outstanding); Dickstein Focus
beneficially owns 83,908 of such shares of Common Stock
(approximately .7% of the shares outstanding); and Dickstein
International beneficially owns 357,102 of such shares of Common
Stock (approximately 3.1% of the shares outstanding).  Upon
resolution of all of the Company's pre-petition claims, the
Reporting Persons may be entitled to receive additional shares of
Common Stock pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization.1"

1/   Percentages are based upon 11,558,720 shares of Common      
Stock reported as of November 7, 1994 in the Company's      
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of the quarter ended
September 30, 1994.

     "(c)  Except as set forth on Schedule II annexed hereto,
none of the persons identified in Item 2 has effected any
transactions in the Common Stock during the past 60 days."
