LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS Alliance Treasury Reserves
===============================================================================
August 2, 2000
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide you with an update of Alliance Treasury Reserves for
the annual reporting period ended June 30, 2000.
U.S. financial markets were anticipating some signs of a slowdown for the first
half of 2000--some sign that past Fed rate hikes were having an effect and
that little, if any, further tightening would be necessary. The U.S. economy,
however, has continued to grow. The U.S. Commerce Department recently reported
that the U.S. economy grew at an impressive, seasonally-adjusted annual rate of
+5.2% during the spring quarter. Inflation, as measured by the broad and
reliable gross domestic purchases and personal consumption price indices, held
stable at 2.5% on a year-earlier basis. The second-quarter growth number, well
above the 3.5% to 4.0%, consensus and actually faster than a downward-revised
quarter-one growth rate of +4.8%, created immediate anxiety. As a result,
interest rates headed higher and stock prices headed lower.
The U.S. economy's gross domestic product report does, however, give evidence
to some signs of cooling off. For example, a key measure of aggregate demand
(real final sales) slowed sharply to +4.2% from +6.7% in the first quarter.
Monthly evidence that consumers had taken a break from their long-running
shopping spree was confirmed. Household spending dipped to just +3.0% in the
second quarter versus +7.6% in the first quarter. Unwanted inventories added a
full percentage point to second-quarter growth. We also believe that a more
meaningful comparison can be made between growth during the second half of 1999
(+7.0%) and growth during the first half of this year (+5.0%).
In his late-July Congressional testimony, Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan laid out
an upbeat forecast for the U.S. economy and rendered a somewhat self-
congratulatory assessment of the role the Federal Reserve has played in
securing that future. To be sure, we welcome his endorsement of both the "New
Economy" paradigm and our own bullishness about accelerating productivity. The
subsequent report on employment costs, showing a quarter-to-quarter gain of
only 1.0% in the spring versus a 1.4% rise in the first quarter, and the soon-
to-be-released report on second-quarter productivity, should help to validate
the Chairman's optimism. Mr. Greenspan is repositioning the Fed to play a more
reactive role going forward. He understands that financial markets should and
must take the lead role in terms of steering the New Economy. As a consequence,
although we still believe the Fed will tighten further, we look for that
tightening to come late in the year and only after the bond market has laid the
groundwork.
As for U.S. financial markets, the road to higher prices will be a bit bumpier
than we expected. Inaction by the Fed toward the end of August could open the
window to the upside, but for now we see more volatility than opportunity. With
an election in front of us, the next several months could be a difficult time
for investors. Therefore investors may want to use periods of asset market
strength to establish more defensive positions.
We appreciate your investment in the portfolios of Alliance Treasury Reserves
and look forward to reporting further investment progress in the coming period.
Sincerely,
/s/ Ronald M. Whitehill
Ronald M. Whitehill
President

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2000 Alliance Treasury Reserves
===============================================================================
NOTE A: Significant Accounting Policies
Alliance Government Reserves (the "Trust") is an open-end diversified investment
company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Trust consists
of two portfolios: Alliance Government Reserves and Alliance Treasury Reserves
(the "Portfolio"), each of which is considered to be a separate entity for
financial reporting and tax purposes. The Portfolio pursues its objectives by
maintaining a portfolio of high-quality money market securities all of which,
at the time of investment, have remaining maturities of 397 days or less. The
financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States, which require management to
make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities in the financial statements and amounts of income and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
followed by the Portfolio.
1. Valuation of Securities
Securities in which the Portfolio invests are traded primarily in the
over-the-counter market and are valued at amortized cost, under which method a
portfolio instrument is valued at cost and any premium or discount is amortized
on a constant basis to maturity. Certain illiquid securities containing
unconditional puts at par value are also valued at amortized cost.
2. Taxes
It is the Portfolio's policy to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue
Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its
investment company taxable income and net realized gains, if any, to its
shareholders. Therefore, no provisions for federal income or excise taxes are
required.
3. Dividends
The Portfolio declares dividends daily from net investment income and
automatically reinvests such dividends in additional shares at net asset value.
Net realized capital gains on investments, if any, are expected to be
distributed near year end.
4. Investment Income and Investment Transactions
Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment transactions are recorded on
a trade date basis. Realized gain (loss) from investment transactions is
recorded on the identified cost basis.
5. Repurchase Agreements
It is the Portfolio's policy to take possession of securities as collateral
under repurchase agreements and to determine on a daily basis that the value of
such securities are sufficient to cover the value of the repurchase agreements.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE B: Advisory Fee and Transactions with an Affiliate of the Adviser
The Portfolio pays its Adviser, Alliance Capital Management L.P., an advisory
fee at the annual rate of .50% on the first $1.25 billion of average daily net
assets; .49% on the next $.25 billion; .48% on the next $.25 billion; .47% on
the next $.25 billion; .46% on the next $1 billion; and .45% in excess of $3
billion. The Adviser has agreed, pursuant to the advisory agreement, to
reimburse the Portfolio to the extent that its annual aggregate expenses
(excluding taxes, brokerage, interest and, where permitted, extraordinary
expenses) exceed 1% of its average daily net assets for any fiscal year. No
reimbursement was required for the year ended June 30, 2000.
The Portfolio compensates Alliance Fund Services, Inc., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Adviser, under a Transfer Agency Agreement for providing
personnel and facilities to perform transfer agency services for the Portfolio.
Such compensation amounted to $208,067 for the year ended June 30, 2000.
For the year ended June 30, 2000, the Fund's expenses were reduced by $3,496
under an expense offset arrangement with Alliance Fund Services, Inc.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued) Alliance Treasury Reserves
===============================================================================
NOTE C: Distribution Assistance and Administrative Services Plan
Under this Plan, the Portfolio pays Alliance Fund Distributors, Inc. (the
"Distributor"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Adviser, a distribution fee at
the annual rate of .25% of the average daily value of the Portfolio's net
assets. The Plan provides that the Distributor will use such payments in their
entirety for distribution assistance and promotional activities. For the year
ended June 30, 2000, the distribution fee amounted to $2,085,483. In addition,
the Portfolio may reimburse certain broker-dealers for administrative costs
incurred in connection with providing share holder services, and may reimburse
the Adviser for accounting and bookkeeping, and legal and compliance support.
For the year ended June 30, 2000, such payments by the Portfolio amounted to
$1,193,191, a substantial portion of which was paid to the Adviser and its
affiliates.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE D: Investment Transactions
At June 30, 2000, the cost of investments for federal in come tax purposes was
the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes. At June 30, 2000, the
Portfolio had accumulated undistributed net realized gains of $44,006.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE E: Transactions in Shares of Beneficial Interest
An unlimited number of shares ($.001 par value) are authorized. At June 30,
2000, capital paid-in aggregated $785,745,500. Transactions, all at $1.00 per
share, were as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS Alliance Treasury Reserves
===============================================================================
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Alliance Treasury Reserves Portfolio
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets and the related
statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial
highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Alliance Treasury Reserves Portfolio (the "Fund") at June 30, 2000, and the
results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial
highlights for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our
audit of these financial statements in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States, which require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit, which included confirmation of
securities at June 30, 2000, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers,
provides a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. The financial
statements for the year ended June 30, 1999, including the financial highlights
for each of the four years in the period then ended, were audited by other
independent accountants whose report dated July 23, 1999, expressed an
unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
