               This  Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D relates to shares of Common
Stock, with a Ps. 1 nominal (par) value (one Argentine peso) (the "Shares"),  of
IRSA Inversiones y  Representaciones  S.A. (the "Issuer").  This Amendment No. 3
supplementally  amends the Initial  Statement on Schedule 13D dated December 29,
1997  and  all  subsequent  amendments  thereto   (collectively,   the  "Initial
Statement") filed by the Reporting Persons. This Amendment No. 3 on Schedule 13D
is being filed by the Reporting Persons to report that as a result of the recent
dispositions  of Shares of the Issuer,  the number of Shares of which certain of
the Reporting  Persons may be deemed the beneficial owners has decreased by more
than one percent of the total number of outstanding  Shares.  Capitalized  terms
used but not  defined  herein  shall have the  meanings  ascribed to them in the
Initial Statement. The Initial Statement is supplementally amended as follows.

Item 2.        Identity and Background.

               This  Statement is being filed on behalf of each of the following
persons (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"):

          i)   Geosor Corporation ("Geosor");

          ii)  Soros Fund Management LLC ("SFM LLC");

          iii) George Soros ("Mr. Soros"); and

          iv)  Stanley F. Druckenmiller ("Mr. Druckenmiller").

               This Statement  relates to Shares held for the accounts of Geosor
and Quantum Realty.

Item 3.        Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

               Geosor expended  approximately  $4,575,000 of its working capital
to purchase the securities  reported herein as being acquired since May 14, 1998
(the date of filing of the last statement on Schedule 13D).

               The Shares held for the accounts of Geosor, Quantum Realty and/or
other SFM Clients may be held through margin  accounts  maintained with brokers,
which extend margin  credit as and when  required to open or carry  positions in
their margin accounts,  subject to applicable federal margin regulations,  stock
exchange rules and such firms' credit policies.  The Shares which may be held in
the margin  accounts are pledged as  collateral  security  for the  repayment of
debit balances in the respective accounts.

Item 5.        Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

               (a)  (i)  Geosor  may  be  deemed  the  beneficial  owner  of the
23,109,136  Shares  held  for  its  account,   which  includes   2,223,159  GDSs
(approximately 12.11% of the total number of Shares outstanding).

                    (ii) Each of SFM LLC and Mr. Druckenmiller may be deemed the
beneficial  owner of the  11,391,613  Shares  held for the  account  of  Quantum
Realty, which includes 987,940 GDSs, (approximately 5.97% of the total number of
Shares outstanding).

                    (iii)  Mr.  Soros  may be  deemed  the  beneficial  owner of
34,500,749  Shares   (approximately   18.08%  of  the  total  number  of  Shares
outstanding).  This number  consists of: (A) the 23,109,136  Shares held for the
account of Geosor and (B) the 11,391,613  Shares held for the account of Quantum
Realty.

               (b)  (i) Pursuant to the contract  between Quantum Realty and SFM
LLC,  SFM LLC may be deemed  to have the sole  power to direct  the  voting  and
disposition of the 11,391,613 Shares held for the account of Quantum Realty.

                    (ii) Pursuant to the contract between Quantum Realty and SFM
LLC and as a result of the  positions  held by Mr.  Soros and Mr.  Druckenmiller
with SFM LLC,  each of Mr.  Soros  and Mr.  Druckenmiller  may be deemed to have
shared power to direct the voting and disposition of the 11,391,613  Shares held
for the account of Quantum Realty.

                    (iii) Each of Geosor and Mr. Soros (as the sole  shareholder
and person ultimately in control of Geosor) may be deemed to have the sole power
to direct the voting  and  disposition  of the  23,109,136  Shares  held for the
account of Geosor.

               (c)  Except for the transactions disclosed on Annex A hereto, all
of which were effected on the Buenos Aires Stock  Exchange in routine  brokerage
transactions,  there have been no transactions  with respect to the Shares since
May 14, 1998 (the date of filing of the last  statement on Schedule  13D) by any
of the Reporting Persons or Quantum Realty.

               (d)  (i) The  shareholders  of Quantum  Realty  have the right to
participate in the receipt of dividends  from, or proceeds from the sale of, the
Shares held for the account of Quantum Realty in accordance with their ownership
interests in Quantum Realty.

                    (ii) The  shareholder of Geosor has the right to participate
in the receipt of dividends  from, or proceeds from the sale of, the Shares held
for the account of Geosor.

               (e) Not applicable.

         The information set forth above excludes  1,922,947 Shares held for the
account  of  Quantum  Dolphin  Limited  ("Quantum  Dolphin"),  an  Isle  of  Man
corporation.  Geosor,  certain SFM clients and certain Managing Directors of SFM
LLC are shareholders of Quantum Dolphin.  Gary Gladstein serves as a director of
Quantum Dolphin and of the Issuer. An affiliate of SFM LLC (the "Affiliate") has
entered  into  an  arrangement   with   Consultores   Asset   Management,   S.A.
("Consultores"),   the   manager  of  Quantum   Dolphin,   whereby  it  provides
non-discretionary   consulting   services  to  Consultores.   Pursuant  to  such
arrangement, the Affiliate does not have the authority to make any management or
investment  decisions for Quantum Dolphin or Consultores.  The Reporting Persons
understand that pursuant to a separate arrangement, Consultores may be deemed to
have sole  voting  and  dispositive  power with  respect  to  Quantum  Dolphin's
investment in the Shares.

          Each of SFM LLC and Mr.  Druckenmiller  expressly disclaims beneficial
ownership of any Shares not held for the account of Quantum  Realty and/or other
SFM Clients.  Geosor expressly disclaims  beneficial ownership of any Shares not
held for its account.  Mr. Soros expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any
Shares not held for the  accounts of Quantum  Realty,  other SFM Clients  and/or
Geosor.
