          This Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D amends the
Schedule 13D initially filed on July 20, 1995 (collectively, with
all amendments thereto, the "Schedule 13D") and reports a recent
reorganization of beneficial ownership of certain of the
Reporting Persons.  This Amendment No. 5 constitutes an initial
statement for newly-formed entities, as more fully set forth
herein.

     Item 2.  Identity and Background

          Item 2 as reported on Schedule 13D is hereby amended
and restated in its entirety as follows:

          (a)  This statement is filed by:  (i) Farallon Capital
Partners, L.P., a California limited partnership ("FCP"), with
respect to the Shares held by it; (ii) Farallon Capital
Institutional Partners, L.P., a California limited partnership
("FCIP"), with respect to the Shares held by it:  (iii) Farallon
Capital Institutional Partners II, L.P., a California limited
partnership ("FCIP II"), with respect to the Shares held by it;
(iv) Tinicum Partners, L.P., a New York limited partnership
("Tinicum"), with respect to the Shares held by it; (v) Farallon
Capital Management, Inc., a Delaware corporation; (vi) Farallon
Capital Management, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company
("FCMLLC"), with respect to the Shares held by Farallon Capital
Offshore Investors, Inc., a British Virgin Islands corporation
("Offshore") and certain other accounts managed by FCMLLC
(together with Offshore, the "Managed Accounts");  (vii) Farallon
Partners, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ("FPLLC")
with respect to the Shares held by each of the entities named in
(i) through (iv) above; (viii) each of David I. Cohen ("Cohen"),
Joseph F. Downes ("Downes"), Jason M. Fish ("Fish"), Andrew B.
Fremder ("Fremder"), William F. Mellin ("Mellin"), Stephen L.
Millham ("Millham"), Meridee A. Moore ("Moore") and Thomas F.
Steyer ("Steyer"), with respect to the Shares held
<PAGE>
by each of the entities named in (i) through (iv) and (vi) above;
(ix) Fleur E. Fairman ("Fairman") with respect to the Shares held
by each of the entities named in (i) through (iv) above; and (x)
Eric M. Ruttenberg ("Ruttenberg").  

          As of April 1, 1996, FCMLLC succeeded Farallon Capital
Management, Inc. as investment adviser to the Managed Accounts.
As a result of the assumption of investment management authority
by FCMLLC, Farallon Capital Management, Inc. is no longer deemed
a "beneficial owner" of any shares.  As of April 1, 1996, FPLLC
succeeded Messrs. Steyer, Cohen, Downes, Fish, Mellin, and
Ruttenberg, and Mdmes. Fairman and Moore as General Partner of
each FCP, FCIP, FCIP II and Tinicum (together, the
Partnerships").  Because Mr. Ruttenberg is neither a General
Partner of the Partnerships nor a managing member of either FPLLC
or FCMLLC, he is no longer deemed a "beneficial owner" of any of
the Shares.  The name, principal business, state of
incorporation, executive officers, directors and controlling
persons of FCMLLC and FPLLC, are set forth on Annex 1 hereto.
The ownership of the Shares reported hereby for FCP, FCIP, FCIP
II, Tinicum and the Managed Accounts are owned directly by such
entities.  Each of Cohen, Downes, Fish, Fremder, Mellin, Millham,
Moore and Steyer may be deemed, as managing members of FPLLC and
FCMLLC, to be the beneficial owners of all such Shares, each of
FPLLC and Fairman, as a managing member of FPLLC, may be deemed
to the beneficial owners of all such Shares other than the Shares
owned by the Managed Accounts, and FCMLLC may be deemed to be the
beneficial owner of all such Shares owned by the Managed
Accounts.  Each of FCMLLC, FPLLC, Cohen, Downes, Fairman, Fish,
Fremder, Mellin, Millham, Moore and Steyer hereby disclaim any
beneficial ownership of any such Shares. 
<PAGE>

          (b)  The address of the principal business and
principal office of (i) the Partnerships, FCMLLC and FPLLC is One
Maritime Plaza, Suite 1325, San Francisco, California  94111, and
(ii) Offshore is CITCO Building, Wickhams Cay, P.O. Box 662,  
Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands.  

          (c)  The principal business of each of the Partnerships
and Offshore is that of a private investment fund engaging in the
purchase and sale of securities for its own account.  The
principal business of FPLLC is to act as General Partner of the
Partnerships.  The principal business of FCMLLC is that of a
registered investment adviser.

          (d)  None of the Partnerships, FCMLLC, FPLLC or any of
the persons listed on Annex 1 hereto has, during the last five
years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic
violations or similar misdemeanors).

          (e)  None of the Partnerships, FCMLLC, FPLLC or any of
the persons listed on Annex 1 hereto has, during the last five
years, been party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and, as a result of
such proceeding, was, or is subject to, a judgment, decree or
final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or
mandating activities subject to, Federal or State securities
laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

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

          Item 3 as reported on the Schedule 13D is hereby
amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

          The net investment cost (including commissions) is
$3,027,543 for the 211,997 Units held by FCP, $3,788,514 for the
278,291 Units held by FCIP, $1,153,178 for the 80,767 Units held
by FCIP II, $600,066 for the 38,290 Units held by Tinicum and
$1,242,447 for the 86,255 Units held by the Managed Accounts.
The consideration was

<PAGE>

     obtained from the working capital of each respective entity
(in the case of the Partnerships), or the working capital of the
Managed Accounts.

          The Units held by FCP, FCIP, FCIP II, Tinicum and the
Managed Accounts are held in their respective margin accounts.
Such margin accounts are maintained at Goldman Sachs & Co. and
may from time to time have debit balances.  Because other
securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to
determine the amounts, if any, of margin used with respect to the
Units purchased and sold.  Currently, the interest rate charged
on such margin accounts is the broker call rate plus 0.5% per
annum.

     Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

          Item 5 as reported on the Schedule 13D is hereby
amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
