Item 1.  Financial Statements

The unaudited Financial Statements of Atlas-Energy for the Nineties-Public
#4 Ltd. (the "Partnership") for the period January 1, 1996 to June 30,
1996 are on pages 3 through 8 hereof.

Item 2.  Description of Business

The Partnership has drilled and completed approximately 31.5 net wells to
the Clinton/Medina formation in Mercer and Venango Counties, Pennsylvania.
As of June 30, 1996, 31 wells are in production. The first quarterly
distribution was on July 8, 1996 for natural gas production during February,
March and April, 1996. The last well is capable of production but not
yet on line.

Total well revenue was $ 204,380.  Total costs for this period are $20,797.96
which also includes pumper fees ($275.00 per month per well).  Expenses for
this period include $3847.00 ($75.00 per month per well) for admininstrative
costs and $11,641.60 for accounting charges for the preparation of the
partnership K-1's and audited financials, legal fees and filing fees for
various legal documents such as the Amended and Restated Certificate of
Partnership and 10-QSB SEC filing.

For the next twelve months management believes that the Partnership has
adequate capital.  No other wells will be drilled and, therefore, no
additional funds will be required.  The Partnership also anticipates that
the payment of operation and maintenance costs will not begin until the
Partnership wells begin to generate revenue.

Although management does not anticipate that the Partnership will have to
do so, any additional funds which may be required will be obtained from
production revenues from Partnership wells or from borrowings by the
Partnership from Atlas or its affiliates, although Atlas is not
contractually committed to make such a loan.  No borrowings will be
obtained from third parties.

                   A PENNSYLVANIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

                             June 30, 1996



1.      INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The financial statements as of  June 30, 1996 for the six months then
ended have been prepared by the management of the Partnership without
audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Partnership believes that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited December 31, 1995
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
presentation have been included.

2.      SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Partnership uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil
and gas activities.  Costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas
properties, drill and equip wells and organizational and syndication costs
are capitalized.  Oil and gas properties are periodically assessed and when
unamortized costs exceed expected future net cash flows, a loss is
recognized by a charge to income.

Capitalized costs of oil and gas wells, leases and organization and
syndication costs are depreciated, depleted and amortized by the unit of
production method.
