MIAMI, January 15 - Jim Rogers and Beeland Interests, Inc. announced today the following
adjustments to the Rogers International Commodity Index(R) (RICI(R)).

The RICI Committee decided to reduce the weight of Soybean Oil to 2.00%
from 2.17%, ICE CA Canola to 0.75% from 0.77%, and Orange Juice to 0.60% from
0.66%. The RICI Committee also decided to add European Rapeseed at the weight

in 1997 and 1998 and is the CEO of Beeland Interests, Inc., the owner of the
Index. The RICI Committee, currently chaired by Jim Rogers, determines the
