Item 1.   Description of Proposed Transactions.

          Section II.  Borrowing Limitations of Item 1 of the

Application-Declaration, as previously amended and supplemented,

is hereby further supplemented to include the following paragraph

at the end of such section:

          "By order dated November 18, 1992 (H.C.A.R. No. 35-

25680), the Commission authorized Arkansas Power & Light Company

("Arkansas"), Louisiana Power & Light Company ("Louisiana") and

Mississippi Power & Light Company ("Mississippi") to effect short-

term borrowings through the Money Pool and to issue and sell

unsecured short-term promissory notes (including commercial

paper) to various commercial banks and/or dealers in commercial

paper in the following maximum amounts: Arkansas, $125 million;

Louisiana, $125 million; and Mississippi, $100 million.  The

Commission reserved jurisdiction in its order over additional

borrowings in the following amounts for each such company pending

further completion of the record: Arkansas, $130 million (or a

maximum of $255 million), Louisiana, $134 million (or a maximum

of $259 million); and Mississippi, $13 million (or a maximum of

$113 million).

          Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi now estimate

increased cash requirements through November 30, 1994 such that

an increase in authorized borrowings for each such company is

appropriate.  In general, the increases reflect optional

redemptions and retirements of additional long-term debt and

preferred stock and various other factors, including in the case

of Arkansas and Mississippi, unanticipated expenditures for

repairs occasioned by recent storm damage in their respective

service territories.  (For further information with respect to

these estimated cash requirements, reference is made to the cash

flow estimates of Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi filed

herewith and referred to in part (b) of Item 6 hereof).

          In view of the foregoing, Arkansas, Louisiana and

Mississippi request that the Commission issue a supplemental

order herein increasing the authorized borrowings in the case of

Arkansas, from $125 million to $200 million; in the case of

Louisiana, from $125 million to $200 million; and in the case of

Mississippi, from $100 million to $113 million."



Item 5.   Procedure.

          Item 5 of the Application-Declaration, as previously

amended and supplemented, is hereby further supplemented to

include the following:

          "The parties hereto respectfully request that the

Commission issue, as soon as practicable, a supplemental order

increasing the authorized borrowings of Arkansas, Louisiana and

Mississippi as proposed herein.  Because the maximum amounts

proposed to be borrowed by Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi

are within the maximum amounts set forth in the Application-

Declaration in this file and the Commission's notice with respect

thereto (HCAR No. 35-25646 (October 2, 1992)), no further notice

is required herein."

include the following:

               -    Quarterly Cash Flow Estimates of Arkansas,
                    Louisiana and Mississippi for the Second,
