  offers more business and financial services for private investors

                                 ---

   Dow Jones News/Retrieval is improving its After Hours/Flat-Fee plan

for private investors.  Starting July 1, current After Hours/Flat-Fee

plan members will automatically receive a more comprehensive service,

the Dow Jones Market Monitor (sm), and the current three-tier pricing

   - weekly stock quotes, back two years

   - hard-to-find international news

   - abstracts of analysts' research reports.

the following News/Retrieval services:

releases and analyst report abstracts.

holidays: New Year's Day, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, Independence
