     On November 30, 1994, Lone Star Industries, Inc. made public
disclosure of the following by a press release for immediate
release:


     Stamford, Connecticut  November 30, 1994 --- Lone Star
     Industries, Inc. (LCE/NYSE) reported that on November
     30, 1994, a verdict has been reached by the jury in the
     case brought in the United States District Court for
     the District of Maryland by Lone Star and certain of
     its affiliates against Lafarge Corporation and Lafarge
     Canada Inc.  Lone Star had claimed that the cement
     purchased from a Lafarge subsidiary caused the failure
     of its crossties and was seeking from Lafarge the
     damages from such failure.  As a result of the failure
     of a portion of such crossties, Lone Star had been sued
     by the railroads which had purchased the crossties. 
     Lone Star, in its Chapter 11 proceedings, had settled
     the claims of the railroads for approximately
     $66,600,000 consisting of $57,200,000 in allowed
     unsecured claims and $9,400,000 in cash.  As part of
     the emergence from its Chapter 11 proceedings, Lone
     Star assigned the right to any recovery in this
     litigation to Rosebud Holdings, a wholly-owned
     liquidating subsidiary.  Rosebud is the issuer of three
     year 10% secured Asset Proceed Notes, of which
     approximately $106 million are presently outstanding.

     The jury found Lone Star was entitled to recovery from
     Lafarge on its claim of breach of express warranty and
     awarded Lone Star $8,391,483.  The amount of this
     judgement could be reduced by the application of a
     statute of limitations to Lone Star's claim.  Such
     matter will be considered by the trial court judge in
     early January 1995, together with Lone Star's pending
     claims under a Massachusetts statute governing unfair
     trade practices.

     Lone Star Industries, Inc. is a leading producer of
     cement, ready-mixed concrete, sand and gravel, crushed
     stone, and other construction materials.
