PRESIDENT'S LETTER
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to report that the total return on shares in the
Dreyfus Edison Electric Index Fund was 17.71% for the fiscal year ended
October 31, 1993.* This compares with a return of 18.84% for the index
of stocks of member companies of the Edison Electric Institute ("the EEI
Index").
The difference between the return of the EEI Index and that of the
Fund is accounted for mainly by the commissions and transaction costs
associated with equity trading, as well as other Fund expenses.
As you know, publicly owned utilities benefit from low interest rates,
and this was clearly reflected in the returns for the latest reporting
period. Throughout the year, interest rates continued in a downward
trend.
In addition, the performance of utility stocks was aided by the
public's search for higher yields. Disappointed with the returns from
bank deposits and other short-term instruments, many investors were
attracted by the higher income available from utility shares, and
assumed the risks of an equity investment.
Starting late in October, there was some increase in interest rates.
This was a reaction to indications that business conditions in the U.S.
are improving which led to an expectation of higher interest rates and,
whether justified or not, to a fear of renewed inflation.
Looking to the foreseeable future, we remain optimistic that the return
on electric utilities should be competitive with other sectors of the
economy.
Sincerely,
Joseph S. DiMartino
President
November 11, 1993
New York, N.Y.
*Total return represents the change during the period in a hypothetical
account with dividends reinvested.

COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF $10,000 INVESTMENT IN DREYFUS EDISON
ELECTRIC INDEX FUND, INC.
AND THE STANDARD AND POOR'S 500 COMPOSITE STOCK PRICE INDEX
(See Exhibit A)
Past performance is not predictive of future performance.
The above illustration compares a $10,000 investment made in Dreyfus
Edison Electric Index Fund on 12/6/91 (Inception Date) to
a $10,000 investment made in the Standard and Poor's 500 Composite Stock
Price Index on that date. For comparative purposes the value of the
index on 11/30/91 is used as the beginning value on 12/6/91. All
dividends and capital gain distributions are reinvested.
The Fund's performance takes into account applicable fees and expenses.
The Standard and Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index is a widely-
accepted, unmanaged index of overall stock market performance which does
not take into account charges, fees or other expenses. Further
information relating to Fund performance, including expense
reimbursements, if applicable, is contained in the Condensed Financial
Information section of the Prospectus and elsewhere in this report.

</TABLE>
DREYFUS EDISON ELECTRIC INDEX FUND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Wells Fargo Nikko Investment Advisors ("WFNIA") serves as the Fund's
index manager. WFNIA is a registered investment adviser. Wells Fargo
Investment Advisors ("WFIA"), and The Nikko Securities Co., Ltd. and an
affiliate ("Nikko") each own 50% of WFNIA. Wells Fargo Institutional
Trust Company, N. A. ("WFITC"), an affiliate of WFNIA, is the custodian
of the Fund's investments. The Dreyfus Corporation ("Dreyfus") serves as
the Fund's administrator. Dreyfus Service Corporation ("Distributor"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Dreyfus, acts as the exclusive distributor of
the Fund's shares, which are sold without a sales charge.
(A) PORTFOLIO VALUATION: Investments in securities (including
financial futures) are valued at the last sales price on the securities
exchange on which such securities are primarily traded or at the last
sales price on the national securities market. Securities not listed on
an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which
there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent
bid and asked prices. Bid price is used when no asked price is
available. Short-term investments are carried at amortized cost, which
approximates value.
(B) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME: Securities
transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss
from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis.
Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest
income, including, where applicable, amortization of discount on
investments, is recognized on the accrual basis.
(C) DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS: Dividends are recorded on the ex-
dividend date. Dividends from investment income-net are declared and
paid on a quarterly basis. Dividends from net realized capital gain are
normally declared and paid annually, but the Fund may make distributions
on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code. To the extent that net realized capital gain
can be offset by capital loss carryovers, if any, it is the policy of
the Fund not to distribute such gain.
(D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Fund to continue to
qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in
the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the provisions
available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable
sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of
taxable income sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all,
Federal income taxes.
NOTE 2--MANAGEMENT FEE, ADMINISTRATION FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH
AFFILIATES:
(A) Fees paid by the Fund pursuant to the provisions of an Index
Management Agreement with WFNIA and an Administration Agreement with
Dreyfus are payable monthly. WFNIA and Dreyfus receive annual fees of
.10 of 1% and .15 of 1%, respectively, of the average daily value of the
Fund's net assets. The agreements further provide that if the aggregate
expenses of the Fund, exclusive of interest, taxes, brokerage and
extraordinary expenses, exceed the expense limitation of any state
having jurisdiction over the Fund, the Fund may deduct from the fees to
be paid to each of WFNIA and Dreyfus, or WFNIA and Dreyfus will each
bear, such excess expense in proportion to their respective fees. The
most stringent state expense limitation applicable to the Fund presently
requires reimbursement of expenses in any full fiscal year that such
expenses exceed 2-1/2% of the first $30 million, 2% of the next $70
million, and 1-1/2% of the excess over $100 million of the average value
of the Fund's net assets in accordance with California "blue sky"
regulations. However, Dreyfus had undertaken from November 1, 1992 to
February 15, 1993 to reduce the administration fee paid by the Fund, to
the extent that the Fund's aggregate expenses (excluding certain
expenses as described above) exceeded certain specified annual
percentages of the Fund's average daily net assets.
For the year ended October 31, 1993, pursuant to the undertakings,
Dreyfus reduced its administration fee by $72,895.
(B) Pursuant to the Fund's Shareholder Services Plan, effective August
11, 1993, the Fund reimburses the Distributor an amount not to exceed an
annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the Fund's average daily net
assets for servicing shareholder accounts. The services provided may
include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as
answering shareholder inquiries regarding the Fund and providing reports
and other information, and services related to the maintenance of
shareholder accounts. During the year ended October 31, 1993, the Fund
was charged an aggregate of $191,454 pursuant to the Shareholder
Services Plan.
(C) Certain officers and directors of the Fund are "affiliated
persons," as defined in the Act, of Dreyfus. Each director who is not an
"affiliated person" receives an annual fee of $2,500 and an attendance
fee of $500 per meeting.
NOTE 3--SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS:
The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities,
other than short-term securities, for the year ended October 31, 1993
amounted to $84,747,018 and $11,188,144, respectively.
At October 31, 1993, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on
investments was $6,586,822, consisting of $7,546,209 gross unrealized
appreciation and $959,387 gross unrealized depreciation.
At October 31, 1993, the cost of investments for Federal income tax
purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting
purposes (see the Statement of Investments).

financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing

includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 1993, by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Dreyfus Edison Electric Index Fund, Inc. as of
October 31, 1993, the results of its operations for the year then ended,
the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the year
then ended and for the period from December 6, 1991 (commencement of
