Dear Shareholder:
This letter is to advise you of a correction to the proxy
statement of Peoples Energy Corporation (the "Company") dated
January 3, 1995 (the "Proxy Statement"). At page 5 of the Proxy
Statement, the first paragraph under "Meetings and Fees of the
Board of Directors" reads as follows:
The Board of Directors held seven meetings during
fiscal 1994. All incumbent directors attended 75% or more of the
aggregate number of meetings of the Board and of those committees
on which such directors served.
This paragraph should instead read as follows:
The Board of Directors held seven meetings during
fiscal 1994. All incumbent directors attended 75% or more of the
aggregate number of meetings of the Board and of those committees
on which such directors served, except Messrs. Mitchell and
Toft, who each attended 64% of such meetings.
Section 7.50 of the Illinois Business Corporation Act, as
amended, provides that every proxy, with certain exceptions not
relevant here, continues in full force and effect until revoked
by the person executing it if revoked prior to the vote being
made pursuant to such proxy. Such revocation may be effected by
(i) a writing delivered to the Company stating that the proxy is
revoked, or (ii) a subsequent proxy executed by the person
executing the original proxy, or (iii) attendance at the meeting
and voting in person by the person executing the proxy.
If you have already returned the original proxy that
accompanied your Proxy Statement and do not want to change your
vote at this time, then do nothing.

If you have already returned the original proxy that
accompanied your Proxy Statement and now would like to change
your vote in any manner, simply complete and sign the enclosed
proxy and return it as soon as possible in the envelope provided.
If you have not returned the original proxy that accompanied
your Proxy Statement, please complete and sign the enclosed proxy
and return it as soon as possible in the envelope provided.
If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting of Shareholders,
save the admission ticket that is attached to the original proxy
that accompanied your Proxy Statement. Shareholders who are
present at the meeting may also revoke their proxies and vote in
person if they so choose.
Sincerely,
