THE 59 WALL STREET TAX FREE SHORT/INTERMEDIATE FIXED INCOME FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Accounting Policies. The 59 Wall Street Tax Free
Short/Intermediate Fixed Income Fund (the "Fund") is a separate, diversified
series of The 59 Wall Street Trust (the "Trust") which is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust is an open-end management
investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust on June 7, 1983.
The Fund commenced operations on July 23, 1992. The Declaration of Trust permits
the Trustees to create an unlimited number of series, each of which issues a
separate class of shares. The Trustees have authorized the issuance of an
unlimited number of shares of the Fund. At June 30, 1995, there were three
series of the Trust.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
A. Valuation of Investments. Bonds and other fixed income securities
(other than short-term obligations but including listed issues) are valued
on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, use of which has
been approved by the Board of Trustees. In making such valuations, the
pricing service utilizes both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic
data processing techniques which take into account appropriate factors such
as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield,
quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and
other market data, without exclusive reliance upon quoted prices or
exchange or over-the-counter prices, since such valuations are believed to
reflect more accurately the fair value of such securities.
Securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily
available are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures
established by and under the general supervision and responsibility of the
Trustees. Short-term investments which mature in 60 days or less are valued
at amortized cost if their original maturity was 60 days or less, or by
amortizing their value on the 61st day prior to maturity, if their original
maturity when acquired for the Fund was more than 60 days, unless this is
determined not to represent fair value by the Trustees.
B. Accounting for Investments. Investment transactions are accounted
for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses, if any, from investment
transactions are determined on the basis of identified cost. Interest
income is accrued daily and consists of interest accrued, discount earned
(including both original issue and market discount) and premium
amortization on the investments of the Fund.
C. Deferred Organization Expenses. Expenses incurred by the Fund in
connection with its organization and initial public offering of its shares
are being amortized by the Fund on a straight-line basis over a five-year
period.
D. Federal Income Taxes. Each series of the Trust is treated as a
separate entity for Federal income tax purposes. It is the Fund's policy to
comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code")
applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its
taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, no Federal income tax
provision is required.
E. Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net
investment income are declared daily and paid monthly to shareholders.
Distributions from net capital gains, if any, are paid annually and are
recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions paid by the Fund from net
interest received on tax-exempt bonds are not includable by shareholders as
gross income for Federal income tax purposes because the Fund intends to
meet certain requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment
companies which will enable the Fund to pay tax-exempt interest dividends.
2. Transactions with Affiliates.
Investment Advisory Agreement. The Trust has an investment advisory
agreement with Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (the "Adviser") for which the
Adviser receives a fee calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate
equivalent to 0.35% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
<PAGE>
THE 59 WALL STREET TAX FREE SHORT/INTERMEDIATE FIXED INCOME FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
Administrative Fee. The Trust has an administrative agreement with Brown
Brothers Harriman & Co. (the "Administrator") for which it pays the
Administrator a fee calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate
equivalent to 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Administrator
has a subadministration agreement with 59 Wall Street Administrators, Inc. for
which 59 Wall Street Administrators, Inc. receives such compensation as is from
time to time agreed upon, but not in excess of the amount paid to the
Administrator. For the year ended June 30, 1995, the Fund incurred $88,746 for
administrative services.
Eligible Institution Agreement. The Trust has an eligible institution
agreement with Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. for which Brown Brothers Harriman &
Co. receives a fee calculated monthly at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Fund's
average daily net assets.
Expense Payment Fee. 59 Wall Street Administrators, Inc. pays certain
expenses of the Fund and receives a fee from the Fund, computed and paid
monthly, such that after such fee the aggregate expenses will not exceed 0.70%
of the Fund's average daily net assets. For the year ended June 30, 1995, 59
Wall Street Administrators, Inc. incurred $498,700 in expenses on behalf of the
Fund, including investment advisory fees of $207,074 and eligible institution
fees of $147,910. Had the expense payment arrangement not been in place, the
total operating expenses of the Fund for the year ended June 30, 1995 would have
been 0.99% and the total return for the Fund for the one year ended June 30,
1995 would have been 5.13%. The expense payment agreement will terminate on July
1, 1997.
3. Investment Transactions. The Fund invests primarily in debt securities
issued by municipalities. The ability of the issuers of the debt securities to
meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in a specific
state or municipality. The aggregate holdings by state ranged from 0.1% to 12.6%
of investments. At June 30, 1995, the five largest holdings by state were
Illinois, 12.6%; Texas, 10.5%; Washington, 7.1%; Indiana, 5.3%; and Ohio, 5.2%.
For the year ended June 30, 1995, the cost of purchases and the proceeds of
sales of investment securities other than short-term investments were
$22,334,412 and $41,038,842, respectively.
4. Shares of Beneficial Interest. Transactions in shares of beneficial
interest were as follows:
For the years ended June 30,
----------------------------
1995 1994
---------- ----------
Shares of beneficial interest sold ............. 2,098,487 8,323,491
Shares of beneficial interest issued
in connection with reinvestment of
dividends and distributions ................. 60,072 59,121
Shares of beneficial interest repurchased ...... (3,763,896) (4,961,348)
---------- ----------
Net (decrease) increase ........................ (1,605,337) 3,421,264
========== =========
5. Federal Income Tax Status. At June 30, 1995 the Fund had a net capital
loss carryover of approximately $8,000, available through June 30, 2002 and
$284,000 available through June 30, 2003, to offset future capital gains to the
extent provided by regulations. To the extent that this net capital loss
carryover is used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that the gains
so offset will not be distributed to shareholders since any such distributions
may be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. Additionally, net capital
losses of approximately $191,000, attributed to security transactions arising
after October 31, 1994, are treated as arising on the first day of the Fund's
next taxable year.

Short/Intermediate Fixed Income Fund (a series of The 59 Wall Street Trust) as
of June 30, 1995, the related statement of operations for the year then ended,
the statement of changes in net assets for the years ended June 30, 1995 and
1994, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the three-year
period ended June 30, 1995. These financial statements and financial highlights
are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based
on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned at June 30,
1995 by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The 59 Wall Street
Tax Free Short/Intermediate Fixed Income Fund at June 30, 1995, the results of
its operations, the changes in its net assets, and its financial highlights for
the respective stated periods in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, evidence mounted that the
Federal Reserve's series of rate hikes initiated in early 1994 was successfully
slowing the economy and containing inflation. As the outlook improved toward the
end of 1994, the price of short-intermediate maturity municipal securities began
to rally. In February, 1995, a variety of tax reform proposals injected some
wariness into the municipal market, particularly for longer-term maturities.
Some investors sought refuge by shortening maturities. As a result, the yield
curve steepened. The Fund produced a total return of 5.42% for its fiscal year.
Although overnight rates rose 1.25%, yields on three-year and five-year
maturities declined .40% and .35%, respectively.
In March, 1995, the Fund's investment adviser anticipated that short and
intermediate interest rates adequately reflected an extended period of stable
monetary policy, and reduced the weighted average maturity of the Fund from just
above 2.7 years to a range of 2.3-2.7 years. In early June 1995, the Fund's
investment adviser anticipated that the lower level of interest rates and an
unusually flat yield curve offered little incremental yield benefit for the
price exposure, and further reduced the weighted average maturity to a range of
2.0-2.3 years.
Portfolio holdings are concentrated in municipal bonds which are 100%
collateralized by U.S. Treasuries held in escrow accounts (the highest possible
credit quality available in the municipal market). In order to lock in a higher
tax-free yield and avoid the tax liability of market discount bonds, the
portfolio is skewed toward premium coupon bonds with call protection. The Fund
has no derivative securities or leveraged exposure in its portfolio.
