     The following information amends the information contained
in the Schedule l3D and Amendments thereto previously filed by
Reliance Financial Services Corporation ("Reliance Financial")
relating to the ownership by its subsidiaries of the class of
securities (the "Security") listed on the cover of this
Amendment.

Item 2.   Identity and Background.

     Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to reflect in
the second paragraph thereof, that approximately 45.8% of the
common voting stock of RGH is owned by Saul P. Steinberg, members
of his family and affiliated trusts.
     
Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

     Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:

     According to the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form l0-Q for
the three month period ended June 30, 1995, the number of shares
of the Security outstanding has decreased to 17,688,000.  As a
