MCLENDON COFFEY
Chairman Vice President and
Investment Officer
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide the semi-annual report for the Smith Barney
Massachusetts Municipals Fund ("Fund") for the period ended May 31, 2000. In
this report, we summarize the periods prevailing economic and market conditions
and outline our investment strategy./1/ A detailed summary of the Funds
performance can be found in the appropriate sections that follow. We hope you
find this report to be useful and informative.
Performance Update
For the six months ended May 31, 2000, the Funds Class A shares reported
negative total returns of 4.09% and 0.13%, with and without the effects of sales
charges, respectively. In comparison, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond
Index/2/ returned 1.02% for the same period. For additional performance
information on the Funds other share classes, please refer to pages 5 through 7.
Municipal Bond Market Overview
During the period, the municipal bond market was impacted by two conflicting
sets of pressures. On one side was the robust growth of the U.S. economy, which
in our view, led to rising interest rates by the Federal Reserve Board ("Fed").
On the other side were supply and demand conditions may have contributed to bond
shortages in many specialty states, bond sectors and different maturities.

intended to be a forecast of future events, a guarantee of future results
nor investment advice. Further there is no assurance that certain
securities will remain in or out of the portfolio.
2 The Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index is a broad measure of the
municipal bond market with maturities of at least one year. An investor
cannot invest directly in an index.

As a result, the Fed has shifted to a more restrictive monetary stance. We
believe that any future monetary policy tightening by the Fed may also invert
the U.S. yield curve further. (The yield curve is the graphical depiction of the
relationship between the yield on bonds of the same credit quality but different
maturities. An inverted yield curve represents a unique situation whereby
short-term interest rates are higher than long-term rates.)
The municipal bond market is currently less volatile than the overall bond
market. Yet, we do not expect yields on intermediate and long-term maturity
securities to move appreciably higher because:
. New issue supply remains very light by recent standards;
. Municipal bond demand from individual investors remains extremely strong
while demand by institutional buyers is still weak; and
. Many investors are reallocating a portion of assets away from stocks into
bonds in an attempt to lock in gains and reduce overall price volatility in
their portfolios. We feel that the municipal bond market has benefited from
this asset-reallocation.
Massachusetts Economic Highlights/3/
The Massachusetts economy continues to be one of the nation's most prosperous,
due in a large part to its fiscal stability, diversified economy, balanced
budgets and an improving business climate. The Bay State's economy has evolved
from one dominated by defense and computer hardware to one boasting a wide
variety of knowledge intensive services. The state's transformation has resulted
in strong job growth in high paying industries, greater mobility for skilled
workers and a higher level of competitiveness.
In fact, venture capital investments in Massachusetts for 1999 were
approximately $1.4 billion, representing approximately 10% of total venture
capital investment for the entire U.S., according to PricewaterhouseCoopers,
LLC. Additionally, the Bay State ranks fourth in the U.S. in terms of per capita
income and eleventh in terms of Gross State Product.
We believe that the Commonwealth's healthy economy puts it in a strong position
to continue to excel in the 21st century. As a result, Massachusetts general
obligation debt has received consistently high ratings from the major credit
agencies.

Investment Strategy
The Funds investment strategy continues to seek to provide Massachusetts
investors with as high a level of dividend income exempt from federal and
Massachusetts personal income taxes as is consistent with prudent investment
management and the preservation of capital./4/ In addition, we seek to maintain
a high-quality portfolio.
As of May 31, 2000, 87.0% of the Funds holdings were rated investment grade/5/
or better,of which 46.3% were rated triple-A by either Standard & Poors Ratings
Service or Moodys Investors Service, Inc., the highest possible rating. In
addition, as of May 31, 2000, the Funds top three sectors were hospital bonds
(21.5%),industrial development bonds (19.4%) and education bonds (12.0%).
Average credit quality remained relatively high during the period. Although
quality spreads have widened due to earnings pressure, especially in the
hospital and health care related sectors, the difference in yield between the
highest quality issues and medium grade issues has been, in our view, relatively
modest.
We think our proprietary research enables us to invest in select medium-term
credits for which perceived market risk may be greater than our analysis
indicates. Moreover, while no guarantees may be given, we think our
income-oriented strategy should prove to be rewarded over time. (Of course, no
guarantees can be given that our expectations will be met.)
We have also taken advantage of rising interest rates to generate additional
yield in the Fund. We also sought to incorporate additional call
protection/6/ into the Fund during the period by selling off some of our higher
coupon bonds with shorter calls, and replacing them with bonds that have similar
high coupon structure, but are not subject to early call.
-----------------
4 Please note that a portion of the Funds income is subject to the Alternative
Minimum Tax ("AMT").
5 Investment-grade bonds are those rated Aaa,Aa,A and Baa by Moodys Investors
Service, Inc. or AAA, AA, A and BBB by Standard & Poors Ratings Service, or
that have an equivalent rating by any nationally recognized statistical
rating organization, or determined by the manager to be of equivalent quality
6 Call protection is the length of time during which a security cannot be
redeemed by the issuer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Municipal Bond Market Outlook
While we feel that the bond market is likely to remain volatile over the near
term, we continue to follow an "ease into the market" approach. We tend to favor
longer intermediate maturity securities, where we think most of the benefits of
the steep positive slope of the municipal yield curve can be obtained.
One of our objectives in managing the Fund is to seek to create a built-in
income stream for the long term in a period of rising interest rates. To achieve
that objective, we have generally focused on securities deemed to have high
credit quality and good call protection. Moreover, we have a fairly long
weighted average life/7/ in the portfolio because we believe that the risk of
higher inflation at the present time is negligible. In addition, we think our
greater emphasis on call protection should help us to provide shareholders with
more consistent income if interest rates do in fact go down.
Thank you for investing in the Smith Barney Massachusetts Municipals Fund. We
look forward to helping you pursue your investment goals in the future.
Sincerely,
/s/ Heath B. McLendon /s/ Peter M. Coffey

7 Average weighted life is the length of time until the average security in a
fund will mature or be redeemed by its issuer. It indicates a fixed-income
funds sensitivity to interest rate changes: longer average weighted maturity
implies greater volatility in response to interest rate changes.

is a broad based, total return index comprised of investment grade, fixed
rate municipal bonds selected from issues larger than $50 million issued
since January 1991. The index is unmanaged and is not subject to the same
management and trading expenses as a mutual fund. The Lipper Massachusetts
Municipal Fund Average is composed of the Funds peer group of mutual funds
(21 funds as of May 31, 2000). The performance of the Funds other classes
may be greater or less than the Class A shares performance indicated on
this chart, depending on whether greater or lesser sales charges and fees
were incurred by shareholders investing in the other classes.
All figures represent past performance and are not a guarantee of future
results. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate, and
redemption values may be more or less than the original cost. No adjustment
has been made for shareholder tax liability on dividends or capital gains.

Bond Ratings (unaudited)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The definitions of the applicable rating symbols are set forth below:
Standard & Poor's Ratings Service ("Standard & Poor's") --Ratings from "AA" to
"B" may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show
relative standings within the major rating categories.
AAA -- Bonds rated "AAA" have the highest rating assigned by Standard
& Poor's to a debt obligation. Capacity to pay interest and repay
principal is extremely strong.
AA -- Bonds rated "AA" have a very strong capacity to pay interest and
repay principal and differs from the highest rated issue only in
a small degree.
A -- Bonds rated "A" have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal although it is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse
effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than
bonds in higher rated categories.
BBB -- Bonds rated "BBB" are regarded as having an adequate capacity
to pay interest and repay principal. Whereas they normally
exhibit adequate protection parameters, adverse economic
conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a
weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for bonds
in this category than in higher rated categories.
BB and B -- Bonds rated "BB" and "B" are regarded, on balance, as
predominantly speculative with respect to capacity to pay
interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the
obligation. "BB" represents a lower degree of speculation than
"B". While such bonds will likely have some quality and
protective characteristics, these are outweighed by large
uncertainties or major risk exposures to adverse conditions.
Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") -- Numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3
may be applied to each generic rating from "Aa" to "B," where 1 is the highest
and 3 the lowest ranking within its generic category.
Aaa -- Bonds rated "Aaa" are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally
referred to as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a
large or by an exceptionally stable margin and principal is
secure. While the various protective elements are likely to
change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to
impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues.
Aa -- Bonds rated "Aa" are judged to be of high quality by all
standards. Together with the "Aaa" group they comprise what are
generally known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than
the best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large
in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of
greater amplitude or there may be other elements present which
make the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in Aaa
securities.
A -- Bonds rated "A" possess many favorable investment attributes and
are to be considered as upper medium grade obligations. Factors
giving security to principal and interest are considered adequate
but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to
impairment some time in the future.
Baa -- Bonds rated "Baa" are considered as medium grade obligations,
i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured.
Interest payments and principal security appear adequate for the
present but certain protective elements may be lacking or may be
characteristically unreliable over any great length of time. Such
bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in fact
have speculative characteristics as well.
Ba -- Bonds rated "Ba" are judged to have speculative elements; their
future cannot be considered as well assured. Often the protection
of interest and principal payments may be very moderate thereby
not well safeguarded during both good and bad times over the
future. Uncertainty of position characterizes bonds in this
class.
B -- Bonds rated "B" generally lack characteristics of desirable
investments. Assurance of interest and principal payments or of
maintenance of other terms of the contract over any long period
of time may be small.
NR -- Indicates that the bond is not rated by Standard & Poor's or
Moody's.

Short-Term Security Ratings (unaudited)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SP-1 -- Standard & Poor's highest rating indicating very strong or
strong capacity to pay principal and interest; those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics are
denoted with a plus (+) sign.
A-1 -- Standard & Poor's highest commercial paper and variable-rate
demand obligation (VRDO) rating indicating that the degree of
safety regarding timely payment is either overwhelming or very
strong; those issues determined to possess overwhelming safety
characteristics are denoted with a plus (+) sign.
VMIG 1 -- Moody's highest rating for issues having a demand feature --
VRDO.
P-1 -- Moody's highest rating for commercial paper and for VRDO prior
to the advent of the VMIG 1 rating.

1. Significant Accounting Policies
Smith Barney Massachusetts Municipals Fund ("Fund"), a Massachusetts business
trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a
non-diversified, open-end management investment company.
The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund are: (a)
security transactions are accounted for on trade date; (b) securities are valued
at the mean between the quoted bid and ask prices provided by an independent
pricing service; (c) securities for which market quotations are not available
will be valued in good faith at fair value by or under the direction of the
Board of Trustees; (d) securities maturing within 60 days are valued at cost
plus accreted discount or minus amortized premium, which approximates value; (e)
gains or losses on the sale of securities are calculated by using the specific
identification method; (f) interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium
and accretion of original issue discount, is recorded on an accrual basis;
market discount is recognized upon the disposition of the security; (g) direct
expenses are charged to each class; management fees and general fund expenses
are allocated on the basis of relative net assets; (h) dividends and
distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date; (i) the Fund
intends to comply with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, pertaining to regulated investment companies and to make
distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all
Federal income and excise taxes; (j) the character of income and gains to be
distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may
differ from generally accepted accounting principles; and (k) estimates and
assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in
net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared.
Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters
used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ.
2. Fund Concentration
Since the Fund invests primarily in obligations of issuers within the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, it is subject to possible concentration risks
associated with economic, political or legal developments or industrial or
regional matters specifically affecting Massachusetts.
3. Exempt-Interest Dividends and Other Distributions
The Fund intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest from municipal
securities, which is exempt from regular Federal income tax, to retain such
tax-exempt status when distributed to the shareholders of the Fund.

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Capital gains distributions, if any, are taxable to shareholders, and are
declared and paid at least annually.
4. Investment Advisory Agreement, Administration Agreement and Other
Transactions
SSB Citi Fund Management LLC ("SSBC"), a subsidiary of Salomon Smith Barney
Holdings Inc. ("SSBH"), which, in turn, is a subsidiary of Citigroup Inc.
("Citigroup") acts as investment advisor to the Fund. The Fund pays SSBC a fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.30% of its average daily net assets. This fee
is calculated daily and paid monthly.
SSBC also acts as the Fund's administrator for which the Fund pays a fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.20% of the average daily net assets up to $500
million and 0.18% of the average daily net assets in excess of $500 million.
This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly.
Citi Fiduciary Trust Company ("CFTC"), formerly known as Smith Barney Private
Trust Company, another subsidiary of Citigroup, acts as the Fund's transfer
agent and PFPC Global Fund Services ("PFPC") acts as the Fund's sub-transfer
agent. CFTC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to
the size and type of account. PFPC is responsible for shareholder recordkeeping
and financial processing for all shareholder accounts and is paid by CFTC.
During the six months ended May 31, 2000, the Fund paid transfer agent fees of
$151,985 to CFTC.
CFBDS, Inc. ("CFBDS") acts as the Fund's distributor. Salomon Smith Barney Inc.
("SSB"),another subsidiary of SSBH,as well as certain other broker-dealers,
continues to sell Fund shares to the public as a member of the selling group.
There are maximum initial sales charges of 4.00% and 1.00% for Class A and L
shares, respectively. There is a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of
4.50% on Class B shares, which applies if redemption occurs within one year from
purchase. This CDSC declines by 0.50% the first year after purchase and
thereafter by 1.00% per year until no CDSC is incurred. Class L shares are being
sold at net asset value plus a maximum initial sales charge of 1.00%. Class L
shares also have a 1.00% CDSC, which applies if redemption occurs within the
first year of purchase. There is also a CDSC of 1.00% on Class A shares, which
applies if redemption occurs within the first year of purchase. This CDSC only
applies to those purchases of Class A shares, which, when combined with current
holdings of Class A shares, equal or exceed $500,000 in the aggregate. These
purchases do not incur an initial sales charge.

$14,000 on sales of the Funds Class A shares. In addition, CDSCs paid to SSB
were approximately $23,000 for Class B shares.
Pursuant to a Distribution Plan, the Fund pays a service fee with respect to its
Class A, B and L shares calculated at an annual rate of 0.15% of the average
daily net assets of each respective class. In addition, the Fund pays a
distribution fee with respect to its Class B and L shares calculated at an
annual rate of 0.50% and 0.55%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of
each class. For the six months ended May 31,2000,total Distribution Plan fees
incurred were:
Class A Class B Class L
================================================================================
Distribution Plan Fees $25,964 $84,808 $9,659
================================================================================
All officers and one Trustee of the Fund are employees of SSB.
5. Investments
For the six months ended May 31, 2000, the aggregate cost of purchases and
proceeds from sales of investments (including maturities, but excluding
short-term securities) were as follows:
================================================================================
Purchases $20,600,299
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sales 22,204,044
================================================================================
At May 31, 2000, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation of
investments for Federal income tax purposes were substantially as follows:
================================================================================
Gross unrealized appreciation $ 14,707
Gross unrealized depreciation (4,183,704)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized depreciation $(4,168,997)
================================================================================
6. Capital Loss Carryforward
At November 30, 1999, the Fund had, for Federal income tax purposes,
approximately $382,000 of unused capital loss carryforwards available to offset
future capital gains expiring in 2007. To the extent that these carryforward
losses are used to offset capital gains, it is probable that the gains so offset
will not be distributed.

7. Shares of Beneficial Interest
At May 31, 2000, the Fund had an unlimited number of shares of beneficial
interest authorized with a par value of $0.001 per share. The Fund has the
ability to issue multiple classes of shares. Each share of a class represents an
identical interest and has the same rights, except that each class bears certain
direct expenses, including those specifically related to the distribution of its
shares.
