                 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                          (Unaudited)

1.   Basis of Presentation
The statement of financial position as of September 30, 1995, the
statements of operations for the three month and nine month period
ended September 30, 1995, and 1994 and the statements of cash flows
for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 have
been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at
September 30, 1995 and for all periods presented have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
December 31, 1994 Annual Shareholder Report.

The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 1995
are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the
full year.

2.   Firm Trading Securities
There were no securities in the trading account during either
period.

3.   Stockholders' Equity
On March 31, 1995 and on April 5, 1994 the Company received
$100,000 and $100,000, respectively, in payment of subscriptions
for common stock issued in the merger with Azimuth Capital
Corporation in April 1991.

The common stock warrants expired on July 22, 1995.

In August, 1995 the Company received $28,000, the interest on
subscriptions receivable.

<PAGE>


Profit (Loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing
net profit (loss), less the preferred stock dividend requirement by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
period, which was 18,523,096 shares.

4.   Income Taxes
During 1992 the Company adopted Financial Accounting Statement No.
109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The Company recorded no benefit
from income taxes in 1994 and a valuation allowance was provided
for the deferred asset of $754,000.

Temporary differences between amounts reported for financial
reporting purposes and income tax purposes are insignificant.

5.   Net Capital Requirements
The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission
Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3 1), which requires the
maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of
aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not
exceed 15 to 1. The Rule also provides that equity capital may not
be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital
ratio would exceed 10 to 1.

As of September 30, 1995 the Company has net capital of
approximately $379,542, which was approximately $279,542 in excess
of its required net capital and the Company's ratio of aggregate
indebtedness to net capital was .37. As of December 31, 1994 the
Company had net capital of approximately $270,877, which was
approximately $170,877 in excess of its required net capital and
the Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was
 .42 to 1.

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

Results of Operations

Revenues
Commission revenues increased by 231.1% for the third quarter of
1995 compared to the third quarter of 1994. The increase was due to
increases in all areas of equity and option transactions. 

Principal revenues increased by 25% for the third quarter of 1995
over the same period in 1994. The quarterly increase is due to
increases in underwriting of government agencies and municipal
bonds. 

Interest and other income decreased by 38.1% for the third quarter
and by 34.8%  for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 due to
decreased inventory and interest on cash available for investment.

The 64.8% decrease for the third quarter and the 34.8% nine months
decrease in advisory and fee income over the same periods in 1994
is primarily due to decreased volume of activity.

Expenses
Compensation and benefits decreased 20.6% in the third quarter of
1995 and decreased 13.6% for the nine months ended September 30,
1995 over the same periods in 1994, primarily due to reduced 
salaried personnel and decreases in commissions paid on fee income.

The 18.2% increase in the third quarter ending September 30, 1995
in clearing and exchange expenses is due to increased transactions
over the same period in 1994.

The 20.8% decrease for the third quarter and the 10.1% decrease for
the nine months ended September 30, 1995 in occupancy and equipment
rental over the same period in 1994 is due completion of a
lease/purchase agreement for furniture in Annapolis and the sublet
of excess space in Puerto Rico.

The 134.3% decrease in business development expense for the third
quarter is due to the payment for certain promotional expenses
shared with other firms earlier in the year.  The 35.9% decrease
for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 is due to decreases in
advertising and expenses related to the promotion and development
of the film fund.

The 25.4% decrease in communication expense for the third quarter
of 1995 and the 17.9% decrease for the nine months ended September
30, 1995 is due primarily to reductions of Telerate services of
28.9%.  Reductions were offset by increases in telephone expense of
164.6% during the third quarter of 1995.

The 74.3% decrease in other expenses for the third quarter of 1995
and the 73.6% decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 1995
is due primarily to respective decreases of 92.9% and 94% in
trading account losses, related to a client settlement.
