          REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Participants and Administrator of Harnischfeger
Industries Employees' Savings Plan

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets
available for benefits and the related statements of changes
in net assets available for benefits present fairly, in all
material respects, the net assets available for benefits of
Harnischfeger Industries Employees' Savings Plan (the
"Plan") at October 31, 1994 and 1993, and the changes in its
net assets available for benefits for the years then ended,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. 
We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards which require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on
the basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The
additional information included in Schedules 1 and 2 is
presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements but is
additional information required by ERISA.  Such information
has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the
audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion,
is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

  HARNISCHFEGER INDUSTRIES EMPLOYEES' SAVINGS PLAN
  ------------------------------------------------
            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
           ------------------------------
              OCTOBER 31, 1994 AND 1993
              ------------------------
(1)     PLAN HISTORY

   Harnischfeger Corporation established the
   Harnischfeger Corporation Employee Savings and
   Protection Plan effective April 1, 1984 (the
   "Harnischfeger Plan").  Effective March 2, 1987,
   sponsorship of the Harnischfeger Plan was assumed by
   Harnischfeger Industries, Inc. (the "Company") and the
   Plan was renamed the Harnischfeger Industries
   Employees' Savings Plan (the "Plan").  Effective
   November 1, 1987, the Beloit Corporation Savings and
   Investment Plan and the Beloit Foundry Savings and
   Investment Plan (the "Beloit Plans") were merged into
   the Plan.  Assets of the Beloit Jones Division Local
   212 Employees Savings Plan were merged into the Plan
   effective November 1, 1990.  The assets of the Syscon
   Corporation Salary Deferral Plan (the "Syscon Plan")
   were merged into the Plan effective July 1, 1992. 
   Finally, the assets of the SYRE Salary Deferral Plan
   (the "SYRE Plan") were merged into the Plan effective
   November 1, 1992. 

   Effective October 29, 1993, as a result of the sale of
   Harnischfeger Engineers, Inc. ("HEI") and pursuant to
   the sale agreement, participation in the Plan by HEI
   and its employees ceased.  Transfer of account
   balances for participants employed by HEI  to a
   defined contribution retirement plan established by
   HEI was completed on January 20, 1994.
   
   Effective February 16, 1995, the Company completed the
   sale of Syscon Corporation to Logicon, Inc.  Account
   balances of participants employed by Syscon and its
   subsidiaries will be transferred to an existing
   Logicon defined contribution retirement plan in 1995.

(2)     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   Basis of Presentation
   ---------------------
   The accompanying financial statements have been
   prepared on the accrual basis.

   Investments
   -----------
   Investments are stated at fair value except guaranteed
   investment contracts which are stated at contract
   value.  Contract value represents contributions made
   under the contract, plus interest at the contract
   rate, less participant withdrawals.  Realized and
   unrealized gains and losses are computed based upon
   market values at the beginning of the year, or
   acquisition cost if acquired during the year, and
   market values at the end of the year.


(3)     PLAN PROVISIONS

   The following description of the Harnischfeger
   Industries Employees' Savings Plan provides only
   general information.  Participants should refer to the
   Summary Plan Document for a more complete description
   of the Plan's provisions.


   Plan Purpose
   ------------
   The purposes of the Plan are to encourage savings by
   employees and to assist them in meeting major
   financial needs, supplementing retirement benefits and
   acquiring an equity interest in the Company.

   Plan Administration
   -------------------
   The Plan is administered by a seven-member Pension and
   Investment Committee (the "Committee").

   The assets of the Plan are trusteed by Fidelity
   Management Trust Company and detailed records of
   participants' accounts are maintained by Fidelity
   Institutional Retirement Services Company.

   Substantially all administrative expenses of the Plan
   are paid or accrued for by the Company.

   Eligibility
   -----------
   Every U.S. employee of the Company, Harnischfeger
   Corporation, Beloit Corporation and Syscon Corporation
   (except any employee who is covered by a collective
   bargaining agreement which does not provide for such
   employee's participation in the Plan and employees of
   J&L Fiber Services, Inc.) who has been employed for at
   least thirty calendar days is eligible to participate
   in the Plan (See Note 1-Plan History-Sale of Syscon). 
   An eligible employee may become an active participant
   in the Plan on the first day of any month in which he
   meets all of the requirements for eligibility.  The
   Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee
   Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").


   Contributions
   -------------
   Participants may elect to make regular contributions
   to the Plan of up to ten percent of their pre-tax
   earnings ("salary reduction contributions"). 
   Participants may also make additional contributions of
   up to ten percent of after-tax earnings.  Pre-tax
   contributions are subject to Internal Revenue Service
   guidelines.

   The Company may, at its discretion, make a profit
   sharing contribution as determined by the Company. 
   Profit sharing contributions to the Plan for 1994 were
   based on the Company's consolidated performance as
   measured by Economic Value Added ("EVA") performance. 
   In fiscal 1995, the Company made profit sharing
   contributions totaling  $3,300,000 based on 1994
   results of the Company.   The Company made no profit
   sharing contribution for the Plan year ended October
   31, 1993.  Company profit sharing contributions are
   allocated to each active participant on a pro rata
   basis on such employee's base earnings, up to
   $100,000, for the fiscal year ended October 31.  The
   Company profit sharing contributions are invested 100
   percent in the Harnischfeger Common Stock Fund.

   Investment Options

   Each participant elects to invest his contribution in
   one or more of the investment funds offered under the
   Plan.  Such elections are made directly to Fidelity at
   the discretion of the participant.  The investment
   funds currently available to Plan participants are as
   follows:

        Fidelity Magellan Fund
        ----------------------
        This is a capital appreciation mutual fund which
        invests primarily in common stocks of companies
        which are expected to demonstrate long-term
        earnings growth greater than the economy as a
        whole.  This fund had 2,874 and 2,830
        participants at October 31, 1994 and 1993,
        respectively.

        Fidelity Equity Income Fund
        ---------------------------
        This stock fund, which had 1,540 and 1,524
        participants as of October 31, 1994 and 1993,
        respectively, invests in income-producing common
        stocks or preferred stocks whose prospects for
        appreciation in both value and dividend income
        are deemed favorable.  The fund looks for a
        dividend yield that exceeds the average yield of
        the "Standard and Poor's 500".

        Fixed Income Fund
        -----------------
        This fund invests (i) primarily in government
        obligations, treasury bills, certificates of
        deposit, commercial paper, bonds, notes and
        other evidences of indebtedness and other
        obligations of a similar nature expected to
        produce a fixed income, (ii) in a deposit
        account, deposit administration fund, guaranteed
        investment contract ("GIC") or similar fund or
        contract maintained by a legal reserve life
        insurance company pursuant to an agreement with
        or a group annuity contract issued by such
        insurance company, or (iii) in a combination of
        investments permitted under (i) and (ii) above. 
        This fund had 3,942 and 4,254 participants as of
        October 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

   

        Fidelity Intermediate Bond Fund
        -------------------------------
        This fund invests in high and upper medium grade
        fixed-income obligations with an average
        maturity of three to ten years.  Investments
        include obligations (i) of U.S. and foreign
        corporations, (ii) issued or guaranteed by the
        U.S. government or any of its agencies, (iii) of
        U.S. banks, including certificates of deposit
        and bankers' acceptances, and (iv) other
        instruments of comparable quality to those
        mentioned above, which are expected to produce
        high current income.  There were 737 and 784
        participants as of October 31, 1994 and 1993,
        respectively.

        Fidelity Overseas Fund
        ----------------------
        The Overseas fund seeks long-term capital
        appreciation primarily through investments in
        foreign securities.  There were 647 participants
        at October 31, 1994 and 405 participants at
        October 31, 1993.

        Fidelity U.S. Equity Index Fund
        -------------------------------
        This fund seeks investment results that
        correspond to the total return performance of
        U.S. publicly traded common stocks.  The total
        return performance is the combination of capital
        changes and income.  At October 31, 1994 and
        1993, this fund had 351 and 340 participants,
        respectively.

        Harnischfeger Common Stock Fund
        -------------------------------
        This fund invests exclusively in the common
        stock of Harnischfeger Industries, Inc.  The
        fund encourages employee ownership while seeking
        long-term capital appreciation.  At October 31,
        1994 and 1993, this fund had 3,446 and 3,960
        participants, respectively.
        
        Fidelity Asset Manager Fund
        ---------------------------
        Effective August 1, 1994, this fund became
        available to Plan participants.  This mutual
        fund maintains a mix of investments in domestic
        and foreign stocks, bond, and short-term
        instruments with the expectation of achieving a
        long-term high total return.  This fund had 115
        participants at October 31, 1994.
   
   Vesting of Participant Accounts
   -------------------------------
   Each participant has a 100% vested interest in his
   account, including employer contributions, from the
   date of contribution until distribution, subject only
   to possible losses on investments.

   

   Participant Loans
   ------------------
   Participants are allowed to obtain loans from the Plan
   which are drawn against their investment accounts,
   subject to limitations of the Plan, and bear interest
   rates of 2% over prime as of the date of the loan.

   Distributions
   -------------
   Upon termination of employment with the Company for
   any reason, including resignation, retirement,
   dismissal, long-term disability or death, participants
   (or designated beneficiaries) are paid the vested
   amounts due them either by: (1) a lump sum in cash, or 
   (2) substantially equal quarterly or annual
   installments over a period not to exceed the lesser of
   (a) 30 years or (b) the life expectancy of the
   participant or, if the participant has designated a
   beneficiary who is an individual, the joint and last
   survivor expectancy of the participant and his
   designated beneficiary or (3) a combination of a lump
   sum and installment payments.

   In the event of financial hardship, a participant may
   apply for a withdrawal of all or any portion of the
   salary reduction contributions credited to his
   account.  Withdrawals during employment of salary
   reduction contributions may be granted by the
   Committee only if the participant can demonstrate to
   the satisfaction of the Committee that a financial
   hardship exists within the definitions of the Internal
   Revenue Code.

(4)     PLAN TERMINATION

   The Company has the right under the Plan to
   discontinue its contributions at any time and to
   terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.

(5)     FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

   The Internal Revenue Service has determined and
   informed the Company by a letter dated May 10, 1993,
   that the Plan and related trust are designed in
   accordance with applicable sections of the Internal
   Revenue Code ("IRC").  As the Plan is qualified under
   the provisions of Section 401(a) of the IRC, it is
   exempted from federal income taxes.  Therefore, no
   provision for income taxes has been included in the
   Plan's financial statements.

   With respect to participants, pre-tax contributions to
   the Plan are excluded from wages subject to federal
   and most state income taxes.  Earnings on
   contributions are not taxable until distributed.
