         Re:  Joint Annual Notice of Securities Sold Pursuant to Rule 24f-2
              Lindner Investments
              1940 Act File No. 811-7932
              1933 Act File No. 33-66712

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         This Firm serves as counsel to Lindner Investments (the "Fund") for
purposes of the enclosed Rule 24f-2 filing.  In connection with the opinion
set forth below, we have examined the Fund's Declaration of Trust and its
Bylaws.  We have also reviewed minutes of the meetings of the Fund's Board
of Trustees held during the period from July 1, 1995 to date.

         Based on the foregoing, it is our opinion that the securities
referred to in the Fund's Joint Annual Notice of Securities Sold Pursuant to
Rule 24f-2, dated August 27, 1996, the registration of which such Notice
makes definite in number, were legally issued, are fully paid and are non-
assessable.

                               Very truly yours,

                              DYKEMA GOSSETT PLLC
