A search for gamma-ray emission above 100 TeV from the binary X-ray source Cygnus X-3 has been performed during a period of intense radio emission in the summer of 1989. No evidence for excess air showers from the direction of the source has been found, and the muon content of air showers from this direction is the same as that of ordinary cosmic rays. The flux of gamma-rays from Cygnus X-3 with energies exceeding 2.1 x 10 to the 14th eV is smaller than 5.5 x 10 to the -13th/cm per sec (90 percent C.L.).
