This report is an amendment to the Atlas-Energy For The Nineties - Public #6,
Ltd. ("Partnership") quarterly report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended
March 31, 1999.  The report is being amended to refile the Statement of Income
and the Statement of Cash Flows, which have been modified to show the impact
of the initial adoption of the AICPA's Statement of Position 98-5
("SOP 98-5" )as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle.  In
its previously-filed Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the
Partnership recorded such impact as a direct charge to Partners' capital.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Registrant has duly caused this Report to be signed on its behalf by the under-
signed, there unto duly authorized:
