Item 4.  Changes In Registrants' Certifying Accountant.

1.   Previous independent accountants.

     On May 11, 1999,  Capitol Queen & Casino,  Inc. (the  "Company")  dismissed
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, as the Company's independent accountants.

         The reports of  PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP on the financial statements
of the Company for the past two fiscal years raise  substantial  doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Further, on March 17, 1998 the
Company filed for bankruptcy  protection with the United States Bankruptcy Court
under 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code.

         The  Board of the  Directors  of the  Corporation  participated  in and
approved the decision to change independent accountants.

         In connection with  PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP audits for the Company's
two most  recent  fiscal  years and  through  May 11,  1999,  there have been no
disagreements  with  PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP on  any  matter  of  accounting
principles of practices,  financial  statement  disclosure of auditing  scope of
procedure   which   disagreement   if  not  resolved  to  the   satisfaction  of
PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP would have caused them to make reference  thereto in
their report on the financial statements for such years.

         During the  Company's  two most recent fiscal years and through May 11,
1999,  there has been no reportable  event as defined in Regulation S-K Item 304
(a) (1) (v).

         The Company has requested that  PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP furnish the
Company   with  a  letter   addressed   to  the  SEC  stating   whether  or  not
PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP  agrees  with the  above  statement.  A copy of such
letter, dated May 14, 1999, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this report.

2. New independent accountant.

         The  Company is in the process of  engaging a  replacement  independent
accountant for fiscal year end June 30, 1999.


Item 7.  Financial Statements and Exhibits.

                  (c)    Exhibits.

16.1              Letter of PricewaterhouseCoopers dated May 14, 1999.
