                   (REPLACING SUPPLEMENT DATED JULY 21, 1999)
                               TO THE PROSPECTUS
                               DATED MAY 1, 1999

The following  supplements the "Bankers Trust Company"  section under "Fund and
Portfolio Management" on page 11 of the Fund's Prospectus:

On June 4, 1999, Bankers Trust Corporation merged with a subsidiary of Deutsche
Bank  A.G.  ("Deutsche  Bank").   Deutsche  Bank  is  a  major  global  banking
institution  that is engaged in a wide range of financial  services,  including
investment management,  mutual funds, retail and commercial banking, investment
banking, and insurance.  A Special Meeting of Shareholders  ("Special Meeting")
was held  for this  purpose.

Shareholders voted at the Special Meeting to approve a new investment  advisory
agreement  (the  "Advisory  Agreement")  with Bankers Trust  Company  ("Bankers
Trust").  Approval of the Advisory  Agreement was sought because  Deutsche Bank
became Bankers Trust's parent company and,  therefore,  controls its operations
as  investment  adviser.  Under  the new  investment  advisory  agreement,  the
compensation  paid and the  services  provided  are the same as those under the
previous Advisory Agreement with Bankers Trust.

The "Portfolio Manager" section on page 12 is hereby omitted.
