                                  Schedule 13D


         This amends the Schedule 13D dated July 25, 1997 (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 The Interlake  Corporation,  a
Delaware corporation, (the "Company"). Notwithstanding this Amendment No. 1, 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 and restated as follows:

         "The shares of Common  Stock  reported to be owned by  Dickstein & Co.,
Dickstein  Focus and Dickstein  International  were acquired in the open market.
The total cost of the reported  shares by Dickstein & Co.,  Dickstein  Focus and
Dickstein International was $5,228,639,  $1,434,716 and $957,875,  respectively.
Such costs were  funded out of working  capital,  which may,  at any given time,
