              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                                  June 30, 1995

                                   (unaudited)



1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION


   The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Alliance
   Capital Management L.P. ("Partnership") included herein have been prepared in
   accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and
   regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information
   and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
   in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
   condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  In the opinion
   of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
   adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of (a) financial position at
   June 30, 1995, (b) results of operations for the three and six months ended
   June 30, 1995 and 1994 and (c) cash flows for the six months ended June 30,
   1995 and 1994, have been made.

2. RECLASSIFICATIONS

   Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
   period presentation.

3. DEFERRED SALES COMMISSIONS

   Sales commissions paid to financial intermediaries in connection with the
   sale of shares of open-end mutual funds managed by the Partnership ("Alliance
   mutual funds") sold without a front-end sales charge are capitalized and
   amortized over periods not exceeding five and one half years, which
   approximate the periods of time during which deferred sales commissions are
   expected to be recovered from distribution plan payments received from
   certain Alliance mutual funds and contingent deferred sales charges received
   from shareholders of those Alliance mutual funds upon the redemption of their
   shares.  Contingent deferred sales charges reduce unamortized deferred sales
   commissions when received.

4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

   On July 25, 1995, a Consolidated and Supplemental Class Action Complaint
   ("Complaint") was filed against the Alliance North American Government Income
   Trust, Inc. (the "Fund"), the Partnership, Alliance Capital Management
   Corporation ("ACMC"), the general partner of the Partnership, Alliance Fund
   Distributors, Inc., a subsidiary of the Partnership, The Equitable Companies
   Incorporated, a parent of the Partnership, certain officers of the Fund,
   certain directors of the Fund, certain officers of ACMC and certain directors
   of ACMC alleging violations of federal securities laws, fraud and breach of
   fiduciary duty in connection with the Fund's investments in Mexican and
   Argentine securities.  The Complaint seeks certification of a plaintiff class
   of persons who purchased or owned Class A, B or C shares of the Fund from
   March 27, 1992 through December 23, 1994.  The Complaint seeks an unspecified
   amount of damages, costs and attorneys' fees.  The principal allegations of
   the Complaint are that upon the advice of the Partnership the Fund purchased


                                        6

<PAGE>

   debt securities issued by the Mexican and Argentine governments in amounts
   that were not permitted by the Fund's investment objective, and that there
   was no shareholder vote to change the investment objective to permit
   purchases in such amounts.  The Complaint further alleges that the decline in
   the value of the Mexican and Argentine securities held by the Fund caused the
   Fund's net asset value to decline to the detriment of the Fund's
   shareholders.  The Partnership believes that the allegations in the Complaint
   are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against these claims.
   While the ultimate results of this action cannot be determined, management of
   the Partnership does not expect that this action will have a material adverse
   effect on the Partnership's business.

5. INCOME TAXES

   The Partnership is a publicly traded partnership for Federal income tax
   purposes and, accordingly, is not currently subject to Federal and state
   corporate income taxes but is subject to the New York City unincorporated
   business tax.  Current law generally provides that certain publicly traded
   partnerships, including the Partnership, will be taxable as a corporation
   beginning in 1998.

   Domestic corporate subsidiaries of the Partnership, which are subject to
   Federal, state and local income taxes, file a consolidated Federal income tax
   return and separate state and local income tax returns.  Foreign corporate
   subsidiaries are generally subject to taxes in the foreign jurisdictions
   where they are located.

6. NET INCOME PER UNIT

   Net income per Unit is derived by reducing net income for each period by 1%
   for the general partnership interest held by the General Partner and dividing
   the remaining 99% by the weighted average number of Units, Units issuable
   upon conversion of the Class A Limited Partnership Interest and Unit
   equivalents outstanding during each period.

7. Supplemental Cash Flow Information

   Cash payments for interest and income taxes were as follows (in thousands):

   The 1994 consolidated statement of cash flows does not include the issuance
   by the Partnership of new Units to key employees of Shields Asset Management,
   Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Regent Investor Services,
   Incorporated, having an aggregate value of approximately $15 million in
   connection with their entering into long-term employment agreements since
   this transaction did not provide or use cash.

8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

   Due to the continuing uncertainty regarding the financial condition of Orange
   County, California, the Partnership purchased on July 19, 1995 approximately
   $21.3 million principal amount of Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes Series A
   issued by Orange County ("Orange County Obligations") from two money market
   fund portfolios sponsored by the Partnership.  As a result, letters of credit
   totalling approximately $21.3 million, under which the Partnership was
   contingently liable to the issuing bank, were terminated.  Management of the
   Partnership believes that the loss, if any, resulting from the Partnership's
   investment in the Orange County Obligations will not have a material impact
   on the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations.

   On July 27, 1995, the Board of Directors of the General Partner declared a
   distribution of $35,150,000 or $0.43 per Unit representing the Available Cash
   Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of the Partnership for the
   three months ended June 30, 1995.  The distribution was paid on August 10,
   1995 to holders of record on August 3, 1995.

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
          CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Partnership acquired the business and substantially all of the assets of
Shields Asset Management, Incorporated ("Shields") and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Regent Investor Services, Incorporated ("Regent"), from Xerox
Financial Services, Inc. on March 7, 1994.  The acquisition was accounted for
under the purchase method with the results of Shields and Regent included in the
Partnership's condensed consolidated financial statements from the acquisition
date.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1994

The Partnership recorded net income of $37.1 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1995, an increase of $4.8 million or 14.9% from $32.3 million for the
three months ended June 30, 1994.  Net income per Unit for the second quarter of
1995 was $0.45 per Unit, an increase of $0.03 per Unit or 7.1% from the second
quarter of 1994.  Weighted average Units outstanding for the quarter ended June
30, 1995 were 81,514,000 compared to 75,555,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1994, an increase of 7.9%.

Assets under management by the Partnership at June 30, 1995 were approximately
$135.8 billion, an increase of $13.5 billion or 11.0% from $122.3 billion at
June 30, 1994.  The increase is primarily the result of substantial market
appreciation of $14.2 billion.  Institutional assets under management at June
30, 1995 were $92.7 billion, an increase of $9.6 billion or 11.6% from June 30,
1994 due principally to market appreciation of $11.6 billion, offset partially
by net asset withdrawals of $2.0 billion.  Mutual fund assets under management
at June 30, 1995 were $43.0 billion, an increase of $3.8 billion or 9.7% from
June 30, 1994. The increase is primarily attributable to net sales of $2.8
billion of cash management products, market appreciation of $2.6 billion and net
Hudson River Trust sales of $1.4 billion, offset partially by net redemptions
and unreinvested dividends of $3.0 billion in load mutual funds, principally
taxable fixed income funds.

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1995 were $153.4 million, an
increase of $4.6 million or 3.1% from the prior year period.  Investment
advisory and services fees increased $6.1 million or 5.9% due to higher average
assets under management resulting primarily from market appreciation.
Distribution plan fees decreased 10.3% due principally to lower average load
mutual fund assets attributable to Class B and Class C Shares under the
Partnership's mutual fund distribution system described under "Capital Resources
and Liquidity". Shareholder servicing and administration fees increased 7.2%
primarily due to an increase in the number of shareholder accounts serviced by
the Partnership and an increase in closed-end mutual fund administration fees.
Other revenues  increased 90.6% primarily due to an increase in interest earned
on investments in cash equivalents and Alliance mutual funds.


                                        9

<PAGE>

Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1995 were $114.0 million, a
decrease of $0.3 million or 0.3% from the prior year period.  The decrease was
primarily a result of decreases in employee compensation and benefits of $1.5
million or 3.5% and interest expense of $2.1 million or 90.3%, offset partially
by an increase in general and administrative expenses of $3.6 million or 21.2%.
Employee compensation and benefits decreased 3.5% primarily as a result of cost
reduction initiatives implemented during the first quarter of 1995.  Promotion
and servicing expenses, which include distribution plan payments to financial
intermediaries for distribution of the Partnership's mutual fund and cash
management services products, amortization of deferred sales commissions paid to
brokers for the sale of Class B Shares, travel and entertainment, advertising
and promotional materials, decreased slightly by 0.6%.  General and
administrative expenses increased 21.2% principally as a result of higher
occupancy and equipment costs incurred in connection with the expansion of the
Partnership's New York headquarters, as well as higher legal and other
professional fees.  Interest expense decreased by 90.3% primarily as a result of
the prepayment of the Partnership's senior notes during August 1994.

The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 1995
increased $0.1 million or 3.0% for the quarter.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1994

The Partnership recorded net income of $71.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1995, an increase of $7.6 million or 11.9% from $63.7 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1994.  Net income per Unit for the six months ended
June 30, 1995 was $0.87 per Unit, an increase of $0.04 per Unit or 4.8% from the
six months ended June 30, 1994.  Weighted average Units outstanding for the six
months ended June 30, 1995 were 81,383,000 compared to 75,858,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1994, an increase of 7.3%.

Assets under management by the Partnership at June 30, 1995 were approximately
$135.8 billion, an increase of $13.5 billion or 11.0% from $122.3 billion at
June 30, 1994.  The increase is primarily the result of substantial market
appreciation of $14.2 billion.  Institutional assets under management at June
30, 1995 were $92.7 billion, an increase of $9.6 billion or 11.6% from June 30,
1994 due principally to market appreciation of $11.6 billion, offset partially
by net asset withdrawals of $2.0 billion.  Mutual fund assets under management
at June 30, 1995 were $43.0 billion, an increase of $3.8 billion or 9.7% from
June 30, 1994. The increase is primarily attributable to net sales of $2.8
billion of cash management products, market appreciation of $2.6 billion and net
Hudson River Trust sales of $1.4 billion, offset partially by net redemptions
and unreinvested dividends of $3.0 billion in load mutual funds, principally
taxable fixed income funds.

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1995 were $298.8 million, an increase
of $1.4 million or 0.5% from the prior year period.  Investment advisory and
services fees increased $9.7 million or 4.7% due to higher average assets under
management resulting from market appreciation and the Shields and Regent
acquisition in the first quarter of 1994.  Distribution plan fees decreased
13.3% due principally to lower average load mutual fund assets attributable to
Class B and Class C Shares under the Partnership's mutual fund distribution
system described under "Capital Resources and Liquidity".  Shareholder servicing
and administration fees increased 6.3% primarily due to an increase in the
number of shareholder accounts serviced by the Partnership and an increase in
closed-end mutual fund administration fees. Other revenues decreased 8.5% since
the

                                       10

<PAGE>

Partnership earned substantial commissions during March 1994 in connection with
the launching of The Global Privatization Fund.  This decrease was offset
partially by an increase in interest earned on investments in cash equivalents
and Alliance mutual funds.

Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1995 were $223.0 million, a decrease
of $5.7 million or 2.5% from the prior year period.  Employee compensation and
benefits decreased 5.2% principally due to lower incentive compensation expense
accruals offset partially by severance costs of $1.7 million incurred during the
first quarter of 1995 and compensation costs for Shields and Regent employees
for the full six months of 1995.  Promotion and servicing expenses, which
include distribution plan payments to financial intermediaries for distribution
of the Partnership's mutual fund and cash management services products,
amortization of deferred sales commissions paid to brokers for the sale of Class
B Shares, travel and entertainment, advertising and promotional materials,
decreased 4.0%.  Distribution plan payments decreased 4.6% due principally to
distribution costs incurred in March 1994 in connection with the launching of
The Global Privatization Fund.  Amortization of deferred sales commissions
increased by 2.7% due to continuing sales of Class B Shares.  Other promotional
expenditures decreased by 10.1% primarily as a result of cost reduction
initiatives implemented in 1995 and due to significant printing and mailing
costs incurred in March 1994 in connection with the launching of The Global
Privatization Fund.  General and administrative expenses increased 19.9%
principally as a result of higher occupancy and equipment costs incurred in
connection with the expansion of the Partnership's New York headquarters, as
well as higher legal and other professional fees.  Interest expense decreased by
86.5% primarily as a result of the prepayment of the Partnership's senior notes
during August 1994.  Amortization of intangibles increased 7.3% due to the
amortization of goodwill associated with the March 1994 Shields and Regent
acquisition.

The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 1995 decreased
$0.5 million or 9.5% from the prior year period.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Cash provided by operating activities was the Partnership's principal source of
working capital during the six month period ended June 30, 1995.

The Partnership's cash and cash equivalents increased by $73.6 million.  Cash
inflows included $120.2 million from operations and proceeds of $22.5 million
from net redemptions of the Partnership's investments in Alliance mutual funds.
Cash outflows included distributions to Unitholders of $66.8 million and capital
expenditures of $4.7 million.


The Partnership's mutual fund distribution system (the "System") includes three
distribution options.  The System permits the Alliance mutual funds to offer
investors the option of purchasing shares (a) subject to a conventional front-
end sales charge ("Class A Shares"), (b) without a front-end sales charge but
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge payable by shareholders ("CDSC")
and higher distribution fees payable by the funds ("Class B Shares"), or (c)
without either a front-end sales charge or the CDSC but with higher distribution
fees payable by the funds ("Class C Shares").  During the six months ended June
30, 1995, payments made to financial intermediaries in connection with the sale
of Class B Shares under the System, net of CDSC received, totaled $12.1 million.

As of June 30, 1995, the Partnership had not issued any commercial paper under
its $100 million commercial paper program and there were no amounts outstanding
under the Partnership's revolving credit facilities.  The revolving credit
facilities contain covenants which require the Partnership, among other things,
to meet certain financial ratios.

The Partnership purchased on July 19, 1995 approximately $21.3 million principal
amount of Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes Series A issued by Orange County,
California ("Orange County Obligations") from two money market fund portfolios
sponsored by the Partnership.  As a result, letters of credit totalling
approximately $21.3 million issued in favor of the portfolios, under which the
Partnership was contingently liable, were terminated.

Management of the Partnership believes that the Partnership has sufficient
financial resources to take advantage of strategic growth opportunities and
global alliances and to finance capital requirements for mutual fund sales.


CASH DISTRIBUTIONS

The Partnership is required to distribute all of its Available Cash Flow, as
defined in the Partnership Agreement, to the General Partner and Unitholders
(including the holder of the Class A Limited Partnership Interest based on Units
issuable upon conversion of the Class A Limited Partnership Interest).  The
Partnership's Available Cash Flow was as follows:

                                OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

          In the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994, it was reported
          that eleven complaints had been filed by various groups of
          shareholders of Alliance North American Government Income Trust, Inc.
          (the "Fund").  On July 25, 1995 a Consolidated and Supplemental Class
          Action Complaint ("Complaint") styled IN RE ALLIANCE NORTH AMERICAN
          GOVERNMENT INCOME TRUST, INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION was filed in the
          United States District Court for the Southern District of New York
          against the Fund, Alliance Capital Management L.P. ("Partnership"),
          Alliance Capital Management Corporation ("ACMC"), the general partner
          of the Partnership, Alliance Fund Distributors, Inc., a subsidiary of
          the Partnership, The Equitable Companies Incorporated, a parent of the
          Partnership, certain officers of the Fund, certain directors of the
          Fund, certain officers of ACMC and certain directors of ACMC alleging
          violations of federal securities laws, fraud and breach of fiduciary
          duty in connection with Fund's investments in Mexican and Argentine
          securities.  The Complaint seeks certification of a plaintiff class of
          all persons who purchased or owned Class A, B or C shares of the Fund
          from March 27, 1992 through December 23, 1994.  The Complaint seeks an
          unspecified amount of damages, costs and attorneys' fees.

          The principal allegations of the Complaint are that upon the advice of
          the Partnership the Fund purchased debt securities issued by the
          Mexican and Argentine governments in amounts that were not permitted
          by the Fund's investment objective, and that there was no shareholder
          vote to change the investment objective to permit purchases in such
          amounts.  The Complaint further alleges that the decline in the value
          of the Mexican and Argentine securities held by the Fund caused the
          Fund's net asset value to decline to the detriment of the Fund's
          shareholders.

          The Partnership believes that the allegations in the Complaint are
          without merit and intends to vigorously defend against these claims.
