Dreyfus 100% U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholder:

   We are pleased to report the performance  for the Dreyfus 100% U.S.  Treasury
Money Market Fund for the  12-month  reporting  period ended  December 31, 1997.
Your Fund produced a yield of 4.64% and, after taking into account the effect of
compounding, the effective yield was 4.74%.*

ECONOMIC REVIEW

   In 1997, the U.S. economy put in its best growth performance of this business
cycle to date.  In  tandem,  the labor  market  tightened  markedly,  marginally
boosting wage inflation  towards year end. Yet price  inflation  decelerated and
bond yields fell.  Although  corporate  profit growth was robust for much of the
year,  strains began to appear in the second half in some  sectors.  The Federal
Reserve Board (the "Fed") tightened credit early in the year, then  subsequently
stayed on hold,  torn  between  strong  economic  reports at home and  worsening
financial crises overseas. While the problems overseas may slow the U.S. economy
somewhat in 1998,  incoming evidence indicates little adverse impact on economic
activity to date.

   Real Gross  Domestic  Product (GDP) grew 3.8% in 1997, its best annual growth
since  1988.  Almost all the major  sectors  contributed  to growth.  Households
enjoyed rising real incomes as wage increases outpaced price inflation. Moderate
interest  rates buoyed  housing  demand.  Tightening  factory  capacity  boosted
capital spending, and until late in the year, steady foreign growth kept exports
robust.  That many of these sectors grew  simultaneously  in a late phase of the
business cycle was unusual.  The year 1997 also saw a dramatic  narrowing of the
Federal  budget  deficit.  It is  likely  that the  associated  drop in  Federal
borrowing boosted the supply of credit available to the private sector.

   As  mentioned,  overall  corporate  profit  growth  rebounded in 1997,  after
slowing in 1996.  Profits from domestic  sources  generally  did well.  However,
profits  from  international  sources  began to show strains in the second half,
impacted by the rising dollar and by financial stresses overseas. More recently,
profits at some companies have been slowed by price weakness.

   Economic data this winter show the economy  still quite strong  although some
leading  statistics  have begun to signal  somewhat  slower  economic growth for
1998.  First,  recently  slowing  export orders and rising import orders imply a
widening trade  deficit.  Second,  the number of announced  layoffs has begun to
rise,  indicating  some  future  easing of labor  market  pressures.  Once these
leading  indicators  actually  show  up in a  slowing  of  the  economy,  market
expectations  may shift to anticipate  the  possibility  of a move by the Fed to
ease credit. At the start of 1998, there was uncertainty about both the severity
of Asian stresses and their impact on the U.S. economy.

MONEY MARKET OVERVIEW

   The financial  turmoil in Asia that started  affecting  security markets last
fall did not have much  effect as yet on the money  market  before  the close of
1997. However,  shortly after year-end,  interest rates began declining. Yet for
much of 1997, money market rates stayed within a narrow range.

   Last March,  when the Fed raised  short-term  rates by a quarter  point,  the
money market  responded  with a brief spurt in yields.  As the year went on, the
chief influences on rates continued to be the outlook for inflation in the U.S.,
which was benign, and prospects for corporate profits, which continued favorable
for most of the year. In addition,  the  customary  year-end  refinancings  sent
interest rates up for a while.

   Indeed,  until the Asian problems began  weakening  equity prices,  the money
market  appeared to be  expecting a possible Fed move to raise  interest  rates.
Late in 1997 and  especially in early 1998,  the picture  changed.  Lately,  the
market's  expectations have focused more on a possible move by the Fed to reduce
interest  rates.  The  reasoning  is that

such an action would be a preemptive strike  against  an  economic  trend that
hasn't  been  mentioned  for years -- potential deflation.

PORTFOLIO FOCUS

   Against this  backdrop,  throughout  the fiscal year we maintained an average
maturity  slightly longer than the industry average for 100% U.S. Treasury money
market funds,  as published by IBC Financial  Data. We believe this strategy has
been in the interest of our  shareholders.  The currently  volatile  environment
requires  flexibility  on  our  part  as  managers.  Of  course,  we  will  make
adjustments to the portfolio as required by the dynamics of the market.

                                                     Sincerely,

                                                     /S/Patricia A. Larkin

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1--Significant Accounting Policies:

     Dreyfus 100% U.S.  Treasury  Money  Market Fund (the "Fund") is  registered
under the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940  ("Act") as a  diversified  open-end
management  investment  company.  The Fund's investment  objective is to provide
investors  with as high a level of  current  income  as is  consistent  with the
preservation  of capital  and the  maintenance  of  liquidity  by  investing  in
obligations of the U.S.  Treasury that provide interest income exempt from state
and local income taxes. The Dreyfus Corporation ("Manager") serves as the Fund's
investment  adviser.  The Manager is a direct  subsidiary  of Mellon Bank,  N.A.
Premier  Mutual Fund  Services,  Inc. is the  distributor  of the Fund's shares,
which are sold to the public without a sales charge.

     It is the Fund's policy to maintain a continuous  net asset value per share
of $1.00;  the Fund has adopted  certain  investment,  portfolio  valuation  and
dividend and distribution policies to enable it to do so. There is no assurance,
however,  that the Fund will be able to  maintain a stable  net asset  value per
share of $1.00.

     The Fund's  financial  statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles which may require the use of management estimates
and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     (a) Portfolio valuation:  Investments in securities are valued at amortized
cost, which has been determined by the Fund's Board of Trustees to represent the
fair value of the Fund's investments.

     (b) Securities transactions and investment income:  Securities transactions
are  recorded  on a trade date  basis.  Realized  gain and loss from  securities
transactions  are  recorded on the  identified  cost basis.  Interest  income is
recognized on the accrual basis. Cost of investments represents amortized cost.

     (c)  Dividends  to  shareholders:  It is the  policy of the Fund to declare
dividends  daily from  investment  income-net.  Such dividends are paid monthly.
Dividends from net realized capital gain, if any, are normally declared and paid
annually, but the Fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply
with the  distribution  requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. To the extent
that the net realized capital gain can be offset by capital loss carryovers,  it
is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gain.

     (d)  Federal  income  taxes:  It is the policy of the Fund to  continue  to
qualify as a regulated  investment company, if such qualification is in the best
interests of its  shareholders,  by complying with the applicable  provisions of
the  Internal  Revenue  Code,  and  to  make  distributions  of  taxable  income
sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income and excise taxes.

     The Fund has an unused  capital loss  carryover of  approximately  $189,000
available  for  Federal  income tax  purposes to be applied  against  future net
securities  profits,  if any,  realized  subsequent to December 31, 1997. If not
applied,  $13,000 of the carryover  expires in fiscal 2003,  $153,000 expires in
fiscal 2004 and $23,000 expires in fiscal 2005.

     At December  31,  1997,  the cost of  investments  for  Federal  income tax
purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes
(see the Statement of Investments).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

NOTE 2--Management Fee and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

     (a) Pursuant to a management  agreement  with the Manager,  the  management
fee is computed at the annual rate of .50 of 1% of the value of the Fund's
average daily net assets and is payable monthly.

     (b)  Under the  Shareholder  Services  Plan,  the Fund  reimburses  Dreyfus
Service Corporation,  a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, an amount not to
exceed an annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the Fund's  average daily net
assets for certain  allocated  expenses of providing  personal  services  and/or
maintaining  shareholder  accounts.  The services  provided may include personal
services  relating  to  shareholder  accounts,  such  as  answering  shareholder
inquiries  regarding the Fund and providing reports and other  information,  and
services related to the maintenance of shareholder  accounts.  During the period
ended  December  31,  1997,  the Fund was  charged  $1,428,766  pursuant  to the
Shareholder Services Plan.

     The Fund compensates Dreyfus Transfer,  Inc., a wholly-owned  subsidiary of
the Manager,  under a transfer  agency  agreement  for  providing  personnel and
facilities to perform  transfer agency services for the Fund.  During the period
ended December 31, 1997, the Fund was charged $550,203  pursuant to the transfer
agency agreement.

     (c) Each  trustee who is not an  "affiliated  person" as defined in the Act
receives from the Fund an annual fee of $4,500 and an attendance fee of $500 per
meeting.  The  Chairman  of  the  Board  receives  an  additional  25%  of  such
compensation and the Trustee Emeritus receives 50% of such compensation.
