Item 4.   Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.



      Ernst  & Young, L.L.P. resigned as auditors of the  Company
effective August 11, 1999. A majority of the members of the Audit
Committee  of  the  Board  of  Directors  voted  to  accept   the
resignation.

     The  reports  of  Ernst & Young on the  Company's  financial
statements  for  the  years  ended  December  31  1997  and  1998
contained  an explanatory paragraph regarding uncertainty  as  to
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

     In  connection  with  the audits of the Company's  financial
statements  for each of the two fiscal years ended  December  31,
1997,  and  December  31,  1998, and  subsequent  interim  period
through August 10, 1999, there were no disagreements with Ernst &
Young  on  any  matters  of accounting principles  or  practices,
financial  statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures
which,  if  not  resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst  &  Young,
would  have caused Ernst & Young to make reference to the  matter
in their report.

of  1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed
