LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Thomas J. Fetter
President
1998 was another favorable year for the municipal bond market. Continued low
inflation and a declining interest rate environment helped provide positive
returns for the tax-exempt sector. U.S. economic growth was more robust than
expected in the fourth quarter. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) grew 6.1%, the
fastest pace in nearly 15 years, making the GDP growth rate for 1998 4.3%. The
economy's strong performance at the end of the year is attributed to vigorous
consumer spending and a shrinking trade deficit. Municipal bonds again trailed
the Treasury market, which rallied strongly as foreign and domestic investors
sought quality in an uncertain global economic outlook. In addition, a heavy new
issue calendar produced supply pressures for the tax-exempt market. More than
$300 billion in new municipal issues came to market in 1998. Nonetheless, the
tax-exempt market performed well, with the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index*
- - a widely recognized, unmanaged index of municipal bonds - posting a return of
6.5% for the year.
Municipal bonds are now among the most undervalued asset classes...
As the year ended, municipal bonds represented one of the most undervalued asset
classes in the financial markets. Historically, municipal bond yields have
averaged around 85% of Treasury bond yields. However, in the flight to
Treasuries that characterized the bond market in late 1998, that ratio has been
skewed dramatically. At January 31, 1999, representative 30-year tax-exempt
bonds were yielding 5.06%, or nearly 100% of 30-year Treasury yields!
Considering their tax-exemption, that is one of the true market anomalies of the
decade. By any measure of historical valuation, municipal bonds today represent
a remarkable bargain.

Taxes remain high, while tax reform is again stalled in Congress...
The election year promises of tax cuts appear to have reached a roadblock in
Washington. Meanwhile, it is estimated that the average American worked until
May 10 to pay his or her taxes in 1998, according to the Tax Foundation. That
poses an enormous financial burden - and an increasing challenge for those who
may be simultaneously paying for college tuition, caring for elderly parents, or
trying to plan for their own retirement.
Amid low inflation and growing federal budget surpluses, we believe that the
outlook for bonds remains attractive. At their recent levels, municipal bonds
are especially appealing. Moreover, municipal bonds remain an excellent
fixed-income alternative - to diversify one's investment portfolio and to help
lower one's tax burden.
Sincerely,
/s/ Thomas J. Fetter,
Thomas J. Fetter,
President

Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. Arizona's economy continued to expand in 1998, thanks to strong consumer
spending, a housing boom, and low interest rates. Job growth remained strong,
and the unemployment rate was 3.9% for January 1999, down 0.3% from December
1998. Fortune magazine named the Phoenix area the 4th best place in the U.S.
for business in November of 1998.
. The effects of the Asian economic crisis began to be evident in Arizona's
manufacturing employment levels and export industries. Exports were down by
almost $1.5 billion in the first half of 1998, with Asian nations accounting
for over $1 billion of the loss. Most affected were electric and electronic
equipment makers.
. Offsetting this was the strength shown as a result of increased consumer
spending. Apparel and accessories stores demonstrated the strongest gains,
with retail and restaurant sales also showing significant growth.
Management Update
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. Management continued its strategy of structuring the Portfolio in a "barbell
approach," which balances lower coupon performance bonds with higher coupon
income bonds. This approach has worked well in the past, and our goal is that
it will continue to do so.
. Bond calls have picked up in the past year, making our emphasis on call
protection that much more important. We continually strive to improve the call
characteristics of issues in the Portfolio whenever possible, especially in a
declining interest rate environment.
. Credit quality spreads continued to narrow in the second half of 1998.
Management took the opportunity to selectively reduce credit risk and to
diversify and improve credit quality in the Portfolio by swapping into
higher-grade credits.
The Fund
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. During the six months ended January 31, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class B
shares had total returns of 3.8% and 3.5%, respectively.1 For Class A, this
return resulted from an increase in net asset value (NAV) per share to $10.33
on January 31, 1999 from $10.20 on July 31, 1998, and the reinvestment of
$0.256 per share in tax-free income.2 For Class B, this return resulted from
an increase in NAV to $11.49 from $11.34, and the reinvestment of $0.244 per
share in tax-free income.2
. Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on January 31, 1999, the
distribution rates were 4.89% for Class A and 4.18% for Class B.3
. The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at January 31 were 4.18% and
3.61%, respectively.4

William H. Ahern
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. Colorado boasted 15.4% revenue growth in fiscal year 1998. The state's
economic expansion is due in part to rapid population growth. Construction of
new residential communities and homes is booming; housing starts were up 13.8%
for calendar year 1998. In addition, heavy construction projects were underway
in 1998, including dams, water supply systems, and roads.
. Such expansion in the population has resulted in overcrowded schools and
prisons, so many districts have called for bond elections to generate funds
for new facilities, or to improve existing ones. The eastern part of the state
is experiencing better employment levels than the state average, partially as
a result of jobs created by several new prison systems.
. For calendar year 1998, several areas of the Colorado economy showed growth
rates above the national averages: personal income, employment levels, retail
trade sales, housing starts, and exports. The unemployment rate as of January
31, 1999 was 3.1%.
Management Update
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. In addition to the Portfolio's primary objective of income, management focused
on bonds that sell at a discount, selectively adding lower and zero coupon
bonds in order to increase upside trading potential.
. We increased our holdings of non-rated bonds to 12.9% of the Portfolio. Our
research and analysis resources in the non-rated sector were important in
adding these higher-yielding bonds to the Portfolio.
. The Portfolio maintained a large sector weighting in healthcare. Given the
difficulties the sector is having, we continue to monitor the sector closely,
looking for undervalued issues.
The Fund

. During the six months ended January 31, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class B

an increase in NAV to $10.92 from $10.82, and the reinvestment of $0.243 per
share in tax-free income.2
. Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on January 31, 1999, the

The Economy

. Connecticut experienced strong job growth in 1998. The state's jobless rate,
at 3.0% in January 1999, was down 0.8% from a year earlier. The construction
division posted the strongest percentage job growth. Further indicating the
overall health of the housing market, housing permits rose 27.5% in 1998.
. At this writing, the state plans to allocate more than $300 million in state
bonds for a new convention center and stadium in Hartford that will be home to
the New England Patriots NFL team and the University of Connecticut football
team. The convention center could add as much as $75 million to the regional
economy and create 700 jobs.
. According to the most recent projections for 1999, Connecticut's economy is
expected to grow, though at a slower rate than in 1998. Gains are expected
in Gross State Product, employment, income, housing permits, and retail sales.
Management Update
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. In addition to the Portfolio's primary objective of income, management focused
on bonds that sell at a discount, selectively adding lower and zero coupon
bonds in order to increase upside trading potential.
. The Portfolio was active in swapping out of older, high-coupon bonds, callable
in the next one to three years. Instead, we focused on longer-call discount
bonds. These bonds have tended to provide better trading appreciation
potential.
. With a generic market dominated by new issuance in insured bonds, the
Portfolio extended its research and analysis efforts to identify non-rated
bonds with the ability to improve the Fund's yield.

Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. Although Michigan's job figures struggled in the first half of the year due to
the General Motors' strike, the unemployment rate ended 1998 at 3.8%, a record
low. Among the strongest sectors were business services, health care, and
construction. Manufacturing employment was also positive in 1998, ending a
2-year pattern.
. The auto industry, a cornerstone of Michigan's economy, posted good numbers in
calendar year 1998. U.S. sales of cars and light trucks were 2.9% higher than
in 1997, with 15.6 million units sold. North American-made vehicles increased
2.5%, maintaining proportionate market share versus foreign-made vehicles.
. Recent data indicate personal income growth in Michigan rose more slowly than
the national average in the second quarter of 1998. Real disposable income, a
leading indicator of the durable goods sector so important to the Michigan
economy, grew 3.2% in the U.S. for the third quarter.
Management Update
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. We were cautious of the healthcare and hospital sector in 1998. In addition to
reimbursement issues with the U.S. government, the competitive Detroit market
experienced declining profit margins due to overcapacity.
. For example, recognizing these pressures and their effects, we moved out of a
position in Detroit Medical Center before it was downgraded. However, we
continue to monitor the sector closely for undervalued issues.
. Michigan issued some new school district bonds, which have traded well. While
the Portfolio invested in these, it lightened holdings in the paper industry.

Robert B. MacIntosh
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. The Minnesota economy is one of the strongest and most diverse in the country.
Non-farming job growth has outpaced the national average by almost 60% between
1988 and 1997. Unemployment at the end of January was a low 2.4%. Farming
remains strong - Minnesota ranks 6th in the U.S. in agricultural commodities.
. Over the past several years, Minnesota has lowered state-imposed business
expenses by more than $400 million. Fees lowered include workers' compensation
premiums and commercial and industrial property taxes.
. The state was named on the Corporation for Enterprise Development's Honor Roll
for the fifth year in a row, earning "A" ratings in both Economic Performance
and Development Capacity. Minnesota has the second-best tax and fiscal systems
in the U.S., due to its balanced revenue raising and progressive tax
structure.
Management Update
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. Supply was light in new bond issues. We offset that somewhat with credits from
Puerto Rico, which have favorable coupons and high liquidity. We may swap out
of the Puerto Rico bonds when suitable Minnesota issues become available.
. Management became increasingly concerned about hospital credits in the second
half of 1998. Due to a very difficult competitive environment in healthcare,
we have pared back on current holdings and have been cautious about adding to
that sector.
. This year we added a new bond from the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians. This
is a non-rated, general obligation bond backed by revenues generated primarily
by the tribe's lucrative gaming and construction businesses. We believe the
issue adds excellent yield and diversity to the Portfolio.
The Fund
. During the six months ended January 31, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class B
shares had total returns of 4.2% and 3.8%, respectively.1 For Class A, this

. Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on January 31, 1999, the
distribution rates were 5.07% for Class A and 4.22% for Class B.3

Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. New Jersey's unemployment rate as of January 1999 was 4.4%, the lowest rate in
almost 9 years. This marked the fifteenth consecutive month the number has
been below 5.0%. The 1998 unemployment rate average for New Jersey is 4.9%,
the best performance for the state in this decade.
. Non-farm employment in New Jersey reached new highs in December, with 8,000
new jobs in the private service-producing sector leading the way. The trade,
finance, and service sectors also enjoyed employment gains.
. In 1998, the New Jersey housing market was on track to surpass 1997 figures.
The number of building permits for residential units issued through November
increased 13% from the same period last year. Residential construction
contracts were up 27% from November 1997 to November 1998.
Management Update
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. In the market environment of the past six months, management continued its
strategy of avoiding par bonds. In addition to the Portfolio's primary
objective of income, we focused on bonds that sell at a discount, while
selectively adding lower and zero coupon bonds in order to increase upside
trading potential.
. Management was able to sell several of the Portfolio's pre-refunded holdings
at a premium in the second half of 1998. With the proceeds, we selected some
new issues with better call protection and upside potential.
. To take advantage of tight spreads between high quality and moderate quality
issues, we upgraded the Portfolio by swapping into higher-grade credits. In
addition, we will continue to diligently monitor our holdings in the
healthcare sector, which has experienced some turbulence.
The Fund
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. During the six months ended January 31, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class B
shares had total returns of 3.7% and 3.4%, respectively.1 For Class A, this
return resulted from an increase in net asset value (NAV) per share to $10.70
on January 31, 1999 from $10.59 on July 31, 1998, and the reinvestment of
$0.283 per share in tax-free income.2 For Class B, this return resulted from
an increase in NAV to $11.14 from $11.02, and the reinvestment of $0.247 per
share in tax-free income.2
. Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on January 31, 1999, the
distribution rates were 5.19% for Class A and 4.35% for Class B.3
. The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at January 31 were 3.92% and
3.28%, respectively.4

Eaton Vance Pennsylvania Municipals Fund as of January 31, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE
[PHOTO BLOCK APPEARS HERE]
Timothy T. Browse
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. The Pennsylvania economy was strong through the end of 1998, with construction
and financial services sectors performing well. The Commonwealth's
unemployment rate reached a new low of 4.3% in January, a significant
improvement from the 4.9% rate posted a year earlier.
. Cheap Asian imports hurt the state's manufacturing sector. Durable goods
manufacturing jobs grew by 200 in November 1998, just 15% of the expected
number. Non-durables had a mixed performance - gains in chemicals, rubber, and
printing were offset by losses, especially in apparel.
. Pennsylvania is increasingly attractive to new business. A July 1998 Business
--------
Week article ranked the Commonwealth the seventh most appealing state in the
----
U.S. for business growth. The cost of doing business in the state has been
slashed by a cumulative total of $5.6 billion since 1995, due to tax cuts and
workers' compensation reform.
Management Update
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. In addition to focusing on the Portfolio's primary objective of income,
management was active in swapping out of older, high-coupon bonds, callable in
the next 1 to 3 years. Instead, we invested in longer-call discount bonds,
which may provide better trading appreciation potential.
. The Portfolio's performance was negatively impacted by the bankruptcy of
Allegheny Health System. The entire hospital sector underperformed other
sectors in 1998, due to the Allegheny situation and lower reimbursement rates
from the government.
. The overall weakness of the healthcare sector means that attractive issues
have also been marked down. Through research and analysis, we can identify
undervalued bonds, increasing opportunities to add value.
The Fund
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. During the six months ended January 31, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class B
shares had total returns of 3.1% and 2.7%, respectively.1 For Class A, this
return resulted from an increase in net asset value (NAV) per share to $10.43
on January 31, 1999 from $10.40 on July 31, 1998, and the reinvestment of
$0.287 per share in tax-free income.2 For Class B, this return resulted from
an increase in NAV to $10.76 from $10.73, and the reinvestment of $0.255 per
share in tax-free income.2
. Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on January 31, 1999, the
distribution rates were 5.42% for Class A and 4.65% for Class B.3
. The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at January 31 were 4.57% and

Eaton Vance Texas Municipals Fund as of January 31, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE
[PHOTO BLOCK APPEARS HERE]
Thomas M. Metzold
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. The Texas economy continued to advance in the second half of 1998, though
somewhat less rapidly than in the first half. The Index of Leading Texas
Economic Indicators was at 132.3 in December 1998, up 0.3% from a year ago.
New home construction permits were especially strong, growing 13.7% since
December 1997.
. An indicator of investor confidence, the Texas 100 Stock Index rose 20.4% in
1998. The Texas 100 compiles the stock prices of the 100 largest
publicly-traded employers in the state, which collectively give 930,000 Texans
jobs and pay over $26 billion a year in wages.
. Unemployment in Texas was 4.7%, down 0.4% from December 1997, but other labor
indicators were mixed in 1998. New business starts slowed and unemployment
claims advanced, while new jobs increased 2.6% in 1998, nearly all of them in
the service sector.
Management Update
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. During the past six months, municipal issuance significantly increased
throughout the state. With a larger selection of bonds to choose from,
management continued its strategy of selling both par bonds and those with
poor call protection.
. We continued to extend the Portfolio's call protection, which becomes
increasingly important as interest rates decline. Bonds with poor call
characteristics have been more likely to underperform in a falling interest
rate environment.
. Credit quality spreads continued to narrow in the second half of 1998.
Management took the opportunity to reduce credit risk and to diversify and
improve credit quality in the Portfolio by swapping into higher-grade credits.
The Fund
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
. During the six months ended January 31, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class B
shares had total returns of 3.8% and 3.5%, respectively.1 For Class A, this
return resulted from an increase in net asset value (NAV) per share to $10.01
on January 31, 1999 from $9.89 on July 31, 1998, and the reinvestment of
$0.255 per share in tax-free income.2 For Class B, this return resulted from
an increase in NAV to $11.22 from $11.08, and the reinvestment of $0.247 per
share in tax-free income.2
. Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on January 31, 1999, the
distribution rates were 5.04% for Class A and 4.33% for Class B.3
. The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at January 31 were 4.10% and
3.54%, respectively.4

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
1 Significant Accounting Policies
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eaton Vance Municipals Trust (the Trust) is an entity of the type commonly
known as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.
The Trust presently consists of twenty-nine Funds, eight of which, each
non-diversified, are included in these financial statements. They include
Eaton Vance Arizona Municipals Fund ("Arizona Fund"), Eaton Vance Colorado
Municipals Fund ("Colorado Fund"), Eaton Vance Connecticut Municipals Fund
("Connecticut Fund"), Eaton Vance Michigan Municipals Fund ("Michigan Fund"),
Eaton Vance Minnesota Municipals Fund ("Minnesota Fund"), Eaton Vance New
Jersey Municipals Fund ("New Jersey Fund"), Eaton Vance Pennsylvania
Municipals Fund ("Pennsylvania Fund") and Eaton Vance Texas Municipals Fund
("Texas Fund"). The Funds offer two classes of shares. Class A shares are sold
subject to a sales charge imposed at the time of purchase. Class B shares are
sold at net asset value and are subject to a declining contingent deferred
sales charge (see Note 6). All classes of shares have equal rights to assets
and voting privileges. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated
daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class
to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class
specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the
ratio of the value of each class' paid shares to the total value of all paid
shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain
other class specific expenses. Each Fund invests all of its investable assets
in interests in a separate corresponding open-end management investment
company (a "Portfolio"), a New York Trust, having the same investment
objective as its corresponding Fund. The Arizona Fund invests its assets in
the Arizona Municipals Portfolio, the Colorado Fund invests its assets in the
Colorado Municipals Portfolio, the Connecticut Fund invests its assets in the
Connecticut Municipals Portfolio, the Michigan Fund invests its assets in the
Michigan Municipals Portfolio, the Minnesota Fund invests its assets in the
Minnesota Municipals Portfolio, the New Jersey Fund invests its assets in the
New Jersey Municipals Portfolio, the Pennsylvania Fund invests its assets in
the Pennsylvania Municipals Portfolio and the Texas Fund invests its assets in
the Texas Municipals Portfolio. The value of each Fund's investment in its
corresponding Portfolio reflects the Fund's proportionate interest in the net
assets of that Portfolio (approximately 100% at January 31, 1999 for each
Fund). The performance of each Fund is directly affected by the performance of
its corresponding Portfolio. The financial statements of each Portfolio,
including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report
and should be read in conjunction with each Fund's financial statements. The
following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The
policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
A Investment Valuation -- Valuation of securities by the Portfolios is
discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolios' Notes to Financial Statements which
are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income -- Each Fund's net investment income consists of the Fund's pro rata
share of the net investment income of its corresponding Portfolio, less all
actual and accrued expenses of each Fund determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.
C Federal Taxes -- Each Fund's policy is to comply with the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute to shareholders each year all of its taxable and tax-exempt income,
including any net realized gain on investments. Accordingly, no provision for
federal income or excise tax is necessary. At July 31, 1998, the Funds, for
federal income tax purposes, had capital loss carryovers which will reduce
taxable income arising from future net realized gain on investments, if any,
to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the
amount of the distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary
to relieve the Funds of any liability for federal income or excise tax. A
portion of such capital loss carryovers were acquired through the Fund
Reorganization (see Note 8) and may be subject to certain limitations. The
amounts and expiration dates of the capital loss carryovers are as follows:

Texas Fund 87,793 July 31, 2005
375,605 July 31, 2004
Dividends paid by each Fund from net interest on tax-exempt municipal bonds
allocated from its corresponding Portfolio are not includable by shareholders
as gross income for federal income tax purposes because each Fund and
Portfolio intend to meet certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to regulated investment companies which will enable the Funds to
pay tax-exempt interest dividends. The portion of such interest, if any,
earned on private activity bonds issued after August 7, 1986 may be considered
a tax preference item to shareholders.
D Deferred Organization Expenses -- Costs incurred by each Fund in connection
with its organization, including registration costs, are being amortized on
the straight-line basis over five years.
E Expense Reduction -- Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT) serves as
custodian to the Funds and the Portfolios. Pursuant to the respective
custodian agreements, IBT receives a fee reduced by credits which are
determined based on the average daily cash balances the Funds or the
Portfolios maintain with IBT. All significant credit balances used to reduce
each Fund's custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses on the
Statement Of Operations.
F Use of Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
G Other -- Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
H Interim Financial Statements -- The interim financial statements relating to
January 31, 1999 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by
independent certified public accountants, but in the opinion of the Fund's
management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The net income of each Fund is determined daily and substantially all of the
net income so determined is declared as a dividend to shareholders of record
at the time of declaration. Distributions are paid monthly. Distributions are
paid in the form of additional shares or, at the election of the shareholder,
in cash. Distributions of allocated realized capital gains, if any, are made
at least annually. Shareholders may reinvest capital gain distributions in
additional shares of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend
date.
The Funds distinguish between distributions on a tax basis and a financial
reporting basis. Generally accepted accounting principles require that only
distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the
financial statements as a return of capital. Differences in the recognition or
classification of income between the financial statements and tax earnings and
profits which result in temporary over distributions for financial statement
purposes are classified as distributions in excess of net investment income or
accumulated net realized gains. Permanent differences between book and tax
accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital.
The tax treatment of distributions for the calendar year will be reported to
shareholders prior to February 1, 2000, and will be based on tax accounting
methods which may differ from amounts determined for financial statement
purposes.
3 Shares of Beneficial Interest
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Funds' Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited
number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par
value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different classes.
Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

4 Transactions with Affiliates
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eaton Vance Management (EVM) serves as the Administrator of each Fund, but
receives no compensation. Each of the Portfolios have engaged Boston
Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment
advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolios' Notes to Financial Statements
which are included elsewhere in this report. Certain of the officers and
Trustees of the Funds and the Portfolios are officers and directors/trustees
of the above organizations. Except as to Trustees of the Funds and Portfolios
who are not members of EVM's or BMR's organization, officers and Trustees
receive remuneration for their services to each fund out of the investment
adviser fee earned by BMR. Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), a subsidiary
of EVM and the Funds' principal underwriter, received $6,278, $1,577, $8,163,
$1,423, $3,732, $17,249, $4,348 and $31 from the Arizona Fund, Colorado Fund,
Connecticut Fund, Michigan Fund, Minnesota Fund, New Jersey Fund, Pennsylvania
Fund and Texas Fund, respectively, as its portion of the sales charge on sales
of Class A shares for the six months ended January 31, 1999.
5 Distribution and Service Plans
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each Fund has adopted a distribution plan (Class B Plans) pursuant to Rule
12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and a service plan (Class A
Plans)(collectively, the Plans). The Plans require the Class B shares to pay
the principal underwriter, EVD, amounts equal to 1/365 of 0.75% of each Fund's
Class B daily net assets, for providing ongoing distribution services and
facilities to the respective Fund. A Fund's Class B shares will automatically
discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no
outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of
(i) 5% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B shares sold
plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing
prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD
reduced by the
31
<PAGE>
Eaton Vance Municipals Funds as of January 31, 1999
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONT'D
aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 6) and amounts
theretofore paid to EVD. The amount payable to EVD with respect to each day is
accrued on such day as a liability of each Class B and, accordingly, reduces
the Class B's net assets. For the six months ended January 31, 1999, the Class
B shares of the Arizona Fund, Colorado Fund, Connecticut Fund, Michigan Fund,
Minnesota Fund, New Jersey Fund, Pennsylvania Fund and Texas Fund paid
$372,732, $144,494, $602,945, $472,710, $237,663, $1,210,991, $1,301,962 and
$63,648, respectively, to EVD, representing 0.75% (annualized) of each Fund's
Class B average daily net assets. At January 31, 1999, the amount of Uncovered
Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B Plans for Arizona
Fund, Colorado Fund, Connecticut Fund, Michigan Fund, Minnesota Fund, New
Jersey Fund, Pennsylvania Fund and Texas Fund were approximately $2,569,000,
$1,390,000, $4,224,000, $2,555,000, $1,664,000, $6,903,000, $7,826,000 and
$363,000, respectively.
In addition, the Plans also authorize each class to make payments of service
fees to EVD, Authorized Firms and other persons in amounts not exceeding 0.25%
of each Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class A and Class B
shares for any fiscal year. The Trustees have initially implemented the Plans
by authorizing each class to make quarterly payments of service fees to EVD
and Authorized Firms in amounts not expected to exceed 0.20% per annum of each
Fund's average daily net assets attributable to both Class A and Class B
shares based on the value of Fund shares sold by such persons and remaining
outstanding for at least one year. For the six months ended January 31, 1999,
Arizona Fund, Colorado Fund, Connecticut Fund, Michigan Fund, Minnesota Fund,
New Jersey Fund, Pennsylvania Fund and Texas Fund paid or accrued service fees
to or payable to EVD in the amount of $4,488, $1,332, $4,591, $1,492, $2,470,
$7,604, $5,211 and $324, respectively, for Class A shares, and $88,597,
$32,393, $143,136, $126,056, $56,429, $287,486, $309,526 and $15,112,
respectively, for Class B shares. Service fee payments will be made for
personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Service fees
are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees
payable by each Fund to EVD, and as such are not subject to automatic
discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of
EVD.
Certain officers and Trustees of the Funds are officers or directors of EVD.
6 Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) is imposed on any redemption of
Class B shares made within six years of purchase. Generally, the CDSC is based
upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of
purchase. No charge is levied on Class B shares acquired by reinvestment of
dividends or capital gains distributions. The CDSC is imposed at declining
rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year
after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. No CDSC
is levied on Class B shares which have been sold to EVD or its affiliates or
to their respective employees or clients. CDSC charges are paid to EVD to
reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under each
Fund's Class B Distribution Plan (see Note 5). CDSC charges received when no
Uncovered Distribution Charges exist will be credited to the Fund. EVD
received approximately $57,000, $18,000, $76,000, $79,000, $30,000, $108,000,
$155,000 and $18,000 of CDSC paid by Class B shareholders of Arizona Fund,
Colorado Fund, Connecticut Fund, Michigan Fund, Minnesota Fund, New Jersey
Fund, Pennsylvania Fund and Texas Fund, respectively, for the six months ended
January 31, 1999.

AMT -- Interest earned from these securities may be considered a tax preference
item for purposes of the Federal Alternative Minimum Tax.
The portfolio invests primarily in debt securities issued by Connecticut
municipalities. The ability of the issuers of the debt securities to meet
their obligations may be affected by the economic developments in a
specific industry or municipality. In order to reduce the risk associated
with such economic developments, at January 31, 1999, 18.8% of the
securities in the portfolio of investments are backed by bond insurance of
various financial institutions and financial guaranty assurance agencies.
The aggregate percentage by financial institution ranged from 2.5% to 10.3% of
total investments.
(1) Security has been issued as an inverse floater bond.

AMT - Interest earned from these securities may be considered a tax preference
item for purposes of the Federal Alternative Minimum Tax.
The portfolio invests primarily in debt securities issued by New Jersey
municipalities. The ability of the issuers of the debt securities to meet their
obligations may be affected by the economic developments in a specific industry
or municipality. In order to reduce the risk associated with such economic
developments, at January 31, 1999, 22.2% of the securities in the portfolio of
investments are backed by bond insurance of various financial institutions and
financial guaranty assurance agencies. The aggregate percentage insured by
financial institution ranged from 0.3% to 15.5% of total investments.
(1) Security has been issued as an inverse floater bond.
(2) Security exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of
1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from
registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. It is the
Portfolio's intention to hold this security until maturity.

1 Significant Accounting Policies
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arizona Municipals Portfolio (Arizona Portfolio), Colorado Municipals
Portfolio (Colorado Portfolio), Connecticut Municipals Portfolio (Connecticut
Portfolio), Michigan Municipals Portfolio (Michigan Portfolio), Minnesota
Municipals Portfolio (Minnesota Portfolio), New Jersey Municipals Portfolio
(New Jersey Portfolio), Pennsylvania Municipals Portfolio (Pennsylvania
Portfolio) and Texas Municipals Portfolio (Texas Portfolio), collectively the
Portfolios, are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as non-
diversified open-end management investment companies which were organized as
trusts under the laws of the State of New York on May 1, 1992. The
Declarations of Trust permit the Trustees to issue interests in the
Portfolios. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of
the Portfolios. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
A Investment Valuations -- Municipal bonds are normally valued on the basis of
valuations furnished by a pricing service. Taxable obligations, if any, for
which price quotations are readily available are normally valued at the mean
between the latest bid and asked prices. Futures contracts and options on
futures contracts listed on commodity exchanges are valued at closing
settlement prices. Over-the-counter options on financial futures contracts are
normally valued at the mean between the latest bid and asked prices. Short-
term obligations, maturing in sixty days or less, are valued at amortized
cost, which approximates value. Investments for which valuations or market
quotations are unavailable are valued at fair value using methods determined
in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees.
B Income -- Interest income is determined on the basis of interest accrued,
adjusted for amortization of premium or discount when required for federal
income tax purposes.
C Income Taxes -- The Portfolios are treated as partnerships for federal tax
purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolios for federal or state taxes on
any taxable income of the Portfolios because each investor in the Portfolios
is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes. Since some of the
Portfolios' investors are regulated investment companies that invest all or
substantially all of their assets in the Portfolios, the Portfolios normally
must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements
(under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for their respective investors to
satisfy them. The Portfolios will allocate at least annually among their
respective investors each investor's distributive share of the Portfolios' net
taxable (if any) and tax-exempt investment income, net realized capital gains,
and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit. Interest
income received by the Portfolios on investments in municipal bonds, which is
excludable from gross income under the Internal Revenue Code, will retain its
status as income exempt from federal income tax when allocated to each
Portfolio's investors. The portion of such interest, if any, earned on private
activity bonds issued after August 7, 1986, may be considered a tax preference
item for investors.
D Deferred Organization Expenses -- Costs incurred by a Portfolio in
connection with its organization are being amortized on the straight-line
basis over five years.
E Financial Futures Contracts -- Upon the entering of a financial futures
contract, a Portfolio is required to deposit ("initial margin") either in cash
or securities an amount equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price
indicated in the financial futures contract. Subsequent payments are made or
received by a Portfolio ("margin maintenance") each day, dependent on the
daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security, and are recorded
for book purposes as unrealized gains or losses by a Portfolio. A Portfolio's
investment in financial futures contracts is designed only to hedge against
anticipated future changes in interest rates. Should interest rates move
unexpectedly, a Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the
financial futures contracts and may realize a loss.
F Options on Financial Futures Contracts -- Upon the purchase of a put option
on a financial futures contract by a Portfolio, the premium paid is recorded
as an investment, the value of which is marked-to-market daily. When a
purchased option expires, a Portfolio will realize a loss in the amount of the
cost of the option. When a Portfolio enters into a closing sale transaction,
the Portfolio will realize a gain or loss depending on whether the sales
proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost
of the option. When a Portfolio exercises a put option, settlement is made in
cash. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium
originally paid.
G When-issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions -- The Portfolios may engage
in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Portfolios record when-
issued securities on trade date and maintain security positions such that
sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payments for the securities
purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are
marked-to-market daily and begin earning interest on settlement date.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONT'D
H Other -- Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
I Expense Reduction -- Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT) serves as
custodian of the Portfolios. Pursuant to the custodian agreements, IBT
receives a fee reduced by credits which are determined based on the average
daily cash balances each Portfolio maintains with IBT. All significant credit
balances used to reduce each Portfolio's custodian fees are reported as a
reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
J Use of Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
K Interim Financial Statements -- The interim financial statements relating to
January 31, 1999 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by
independent certified public accountants, but in the opinion of the
Portfolio's management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial
statements.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR),
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eaton Vance Management (EVM), as compensation for
management and investment advisory services rendered to each Portfolio. The
fee is based upon a percentage of average daily net assets plus a percentage
of gross income (i.e., income other than gains from the sale of securities).
For the six months ended January 31, 1999, each Portfolio paid advisory fees
as follows:
Portfolio Amount Effective Rate*
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arizona $ 198,427 0.38%
Colorado 48,910 0.24%
Connecticut 343,632 0.41%
Michigan 249,863 0.39%
Portfolio Amount Effective Rate*
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Minnesota 111,463 0.33%
New Jersey 754,116 0.44%
Pennsylvania 793,351 0.44%
Texas 13,697 0.16%
*Advisory fees paid as a percentage of average daily net assets
(annualized).
Except as to Trustees of the Portfolios who are not members of EVM's or BMR's
organization, officers and Trustees receive remuneration for their services
to the Portfolios out of such investment adviser fee.
Trustees of the Portfolios that are not affiliated with the Investment Adviser
may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in
accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the
six months ended January 31, 1999, no significant amounts have been deferred.
Certain of the officers and Trustees of the Portfolios are officers and
directors/trustees of the above organizations.

agreement

with a group of banks. Borrowings will be made by the portfolios or funds
solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term
cash requirements. Interest is charged to each portfolio or fund based on its
borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds
rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.10% on the daily
unused portion of the facility is allocated among the participating portfolios
and funds at the end of each quarter. At January 31, 1999, the Arizona
Portfolio and New Jersey Portfolio had balances outstanding pursuant to this
line of credit of $37,000 and $2,305,000 respectively. The Portfolios did not
have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the six months ended
January 31, 1999.
6 Financial Instruments
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Portfolios regularly trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet
risk in the normal course of their investing activities to assist in managing
exposure to various market risks. These financial instruments include futures
contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of
the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or
contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment a Portfolio
has in particular classes of financial instruments and does not necessarily
represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the
risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related
and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at January 31,
1999, is as follows:
Futures
Contracts
Expiration Net Unrealized
Portfolio Date Contracts Position Depreciation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Michigan 3/99 17 U.S. Treasury Bonds Short $13,379
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pennsylvania 3/99 48 U.S. Treasury Bonds Short 37,776
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At January 31, 1999, the Portfolios had sufficient cash and/or securities to
cover margin requirements on open futures contracts.
