Portfolio Managers' Comments

Market Overview

  Although on balance interest rates were little changed, the second quarter
exhibited unusually high volatility as perceptions of the economy's strength
gyrated. Despite three tightenings totaling 100 basis points/1/ this year, the
market's fears of further tightening moves by the Federal Reserve have been
calmed by growing evidence of an economic slowdown. The reduced expectation for
additional tightening moves caused short-term rates to decline and the yield
curve to disinvert modestly during the second quarter. Outside of rising energy
prices, most commodity prices were mixed, with weaker lumber and industrial
metal prices pointing to moderating global growth conditions. Two factors caused
credit spreads to widen: tighter monetary policy increased credit risk and
rising surpluses raised buyback projections, which amplified the potential
scarcity value of Treasuries.

U.S. Government Intermediate and Investment Grade Portfolios

  Both portfolios underperformed their respective benchmarks as spreads widened
on non-Treasury sectors during the second quarter, with investment grade
corporate securities being hit the hardest. Within the investment grade
spectrum, BBB rated securities underperformed higher rated corporates.
Fortunately, some of our diversified investment strategies did help mitigate the
detracting effects of the corporate bond exposure. The small allocation to
emerging markets was a positive contributor to performance. In addition, issue
selection within the mortgage allocation had a positive effect, as this exposure
was reduced early in the year and subsequently increased as mortgages became
more attractive on a relative value basis. Inflation-indexed bonds, which
continue to be overweighted, were also a positive contributor to performance as
real yields declined over the period. Both Funds benefited from a long duration
position as interest rates declined.

  For the six months ended June 30, 2000, the U.S. Government Intermediate-Term
Portfolio returned +3.83%, which compares favorably to the Salomon Bros. Medium-
Term Treasury/Government-Sponsored Index total return of +3.43%. The Investment
Grade Income Portfolio underperformed the benchmark Salomon Bros. Broad
Investment Grade Index, with total returns of +2.64% and +3.92%, respectively,
for the same time period.

High Yield Portfolio

  The High Yield Portfolio produced a net total return of -3.24% for the six
months ended June 30, 2000, compared to the Lehman Brothers High Yield Index
total return of -1.21% for the same time period. The portfolio underperformed
the index in the second quarter due to an overweighting of single B-rated bonds
and an emphasis on liquid, higher quality issues. These types of issues were
negatively impacted in price as investors generally sold these widely held
issues to raise liquidity. The portfolio's continued moderate overweights in
telecommunications and cable/media negatively impacted performance due to
concerns over continued capital access to the high yield market and more
aggressive capital expenditure plans than originally forecasted, resulting in
supply pressure in the primary market. The portfolio's overweights in basic
industry and energy credits positively contributed to performance. The
underweighting of sectors that underperformed, such as consumer cyclical,
retail, and health care,

positively contributed to performance as these sectors are experiencing above-
average event risk and declining fundamentals.

Market Commentary and Outlook

  Recent economic data indicate the U.S. economy is finally slowing in response
to tight monetary policy. Signs of weakness are emerging in key interest rate-
sensitive sectors such as housing and durable goods, as well as in earnings
disappointments for banks and consumer staples manufacturers. Moreover, softer
demand and tight labor markets are reflected in a noticeable deceleration in the
growth of private sector employment this year. With tight money limiting firms'
ability to pass along higher input prices, recent hikes in energy costs will act
like a tax on economic activity, accentuating the monetary slowdown already
underway.

  Although many argue that these are temporary and weather-related changes,
signs of a slowdown are also validated by a substantial reduction in the growth
rate of M2, the monetary aggregate that best reflects and anticipates the
overall level of economic activity. With six- and twelve-month M2 growth rates
having fallen from the 8% - 10% levels of early last year to 5% in recent
months, it is likely that the trend in nominal GDP growth will moderate as the
year progresses. A near-term "soft-landing" scenario thus appears likely,
leaving the Fed on hold pending further indications of the economy's health.
Though the risks of a "hard landing" are not insignificant, we anticipate that a
strong dollar, low inflation, technology-driven productivity, and ongoing
investment in the U.S. economy will continue to provide a foundation for healthy
growth and minimal inflation pressures in the years to come. And of course,
since the slowdown is most likely monetary-induced, a hard landing could be
easily addressed by lower interest rates, much as occurred in response to the
global financial crisis experienced two years ago.

Strategy

  Since low inflation fundamentals remain intact, we continue to favor a long
duration posture for both the U.S. Government Intermediate and Investment Grade
portfolios in anticipation of declining yields. With mounting signs of slowing
growth, we are putting greater emphasis on strategies which will benefit from a
steepening of the yield curve, since the Fed will not likely tighten by as much
as is currently anticipated, and may eventually revert to an easing mode should
economic momentum fall off too rapidly. Although credit spreads are unusually
wide, we remain somewhat cautious in our overweighting to corporate debt given
the potential volatility of spreads going forward, and the fact that slowdown
risks are mounting. Greater diversification and an emphasis on higher quality
credit sectors with attractive spreads can mitigate these problems, but not
entirely. Our mortgage exposure will likely remain cautiously overweight, with
attractive valuation offsetting the difficulties mortgages could face in a
volatile Treasury and yield curve environment. We plan to continue holding an
aggressive exposure to U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities ("TIPS")
since they offer attractive real yields and are an excellent hedge to our long
duration exposure. With U.S. yields still quite high relative to most non-
dollar markets, we see limited opportunities to diversify portfolio risk and
benefit from attractive and


                                                                              3

declining yields overseas. However, we believe a diversified exposure to liquid
emerging market debt securities from major sovereign issuers continues to offer
an attractive risk/reward profile.

  The high yield sector remains vulnerable, however, to a number of factors that
could cause spread performance and returns to remain relatively weak. For
example, pent-up supply of new issues may limit near-term spread improvement. In
addition, mutual fund flow uncertainty (particularly if equity markets rebound)
and earnings surprises could also negatively impact the sector's tone. We remain
focused on long-term investing in fundamentally improving credit stories within
the high yield market despite the significant volatility in the higher credit
quality tier of the market. Sectors such as telecommunications and cable remain
overweighted, while we are biased towards higher quality issues within these
subsectors of the market. We also believe that High Yield is well positioned to
outperform relative to the benchmark given our expectation of a soft landing
scenario and current credit positioning. We are persistently seeking issuers
characterized by strong management teams, the ability and desire to deleverage
the balance sheet, above-average competitive business position, and attractive
market pricing relative to the perceived credit risks. At current spread levels,
we believe the high yield market represents significant long-term value. Over
the last two and a half years, the high yield market has experienced bear market
returns in the face of robust economic growth. The high yield market has
historically anticipated Federal Reserve policy changes and peak default rates.
Should we be nearing peaks in both Federal Reserve and default activity, the
market could show significant spread tightening and greater total returns over
the course of 2000 and into 2001.

Performance Information
Legg Mason Income Trust, Inc.


Total Returns for One, Five and Ten Years and Life of Class, as of June 30, 2000

  The returns shown are based on historical results and are not intended to
indicate future performance. Total return measures investment performance in
terms of appreciation or depreciation in a Fund's net asset value per share,
plus dividends and any capital gain distributions. It assumes that dividends and
distributions were reinvested at the time they were paid. The investment return
and principal value of an investment in each of these Funds will fluctuate so
that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their
original cost. Average annual returns tend to smooth out variations in a Fund's
return, so that they differ from actual year-to-year results. No adjustment has
been made for any income taxes payable by shareholders.

  The Government Intermediate, Investment Grade and High Yield Portfolios each
have two classes of shares: Primary Class and Navigator Class. Information about
the Navigator Class, offered only to certain institutional investors, is
contained in a separate report to its shareholders. The U.S. Government Money
Market Portfolio is excluded from this performance information because it does
not have a variable share price.

  The Funds' total returns as of June 30, 2000, were as follows:

   Notes to Financial Statements
   Legg Mason Income Trust, Inc.
   (Amounts in Thousands) (Unaudited)

   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Significant Accounting Policies:

      The Legg Mason Income Trust, Inc. ("Corporation"), consisting of the U.S.
   Government Intermediate-Term Portfolio ("Government Intermediate"), the
   Investment Grade Income Portfolio ("Investment Grade"), the High Yield
   Portfolio ("High Yield"), and the U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio
   ("Government Money Market") (each a "Fund"), is registered under the
   Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end, diversified
   investment company.

      The Government Intermediate, Investment Grade and High Yield Portfolios
   consist of two classes of shares: Primary Class, offered since 1987, and
   Navigator Class, offered to certain institutional investors since December 1,
   1994, December 1, 1995, and May 5, 1998, respectively. Information about
   Navigator Class is contained in a separate report to its shareholders. The
   income and expenses of each of these Funds are allocated proportionately to
   the two classes of shares based on daily net assets, except for Rule 12b-1
   distribution fees, which are charged only on Primary Class shares, and
   transfer agent and shareholder servicing expenses, which are determined
   separately for each class.

   Security Valuation

      Securities owned by Government Intermediate, Investment Grade and High
   Yield for which market quotations are readily available are valued at current
   market value. In determining fair value, the Board of Directors and
   management consider all relevant qualitative and quantitative information
   available. These factors are subject to change over time and are reviewed
   periodically. The values assigned to fair value investments are based on
   available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might
   ultimately be realized, since such amounts depend on future developments
   inherent in long-term investments. Further, because of the inherent
   uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ significantly
   from the values that would have been used had a ready market of the
   investments existed, and the differences could be material. At June 30, 2000,
   $7,573, or 2.4%, of the High Yield Portfolio's net assets were valued by
   management in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Board of
   Directors. Securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued
   at amortized cost by each Fund.

      With respect to High Yield, where a security is traded on more than one
   market, which may include foreign markets, the securities are generally
   valued on the market considered by the Fund's adviser to be the primary
   market. The Fund will value its foreign securities in U.S. dollars on the
   basis of the then-prevailing exchange rates.

      The investments of Government Money Market are valued on the basis of
   amortized cost, so long as the Fund's Board of Directors determines that this
   method constitutes fair value. Under this method, securities are valued at
   cost when purchased and, thereafter, a constant proportionate accretion or
   amortization of any discount or premium is recorded until maturity of the
   security.

   Investment Income and Distributions to Shareholders

      Interest income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Bond
   premiums are amortized for financial reporting and federal income tax
   purposes. Bond discounts, other than original issue and zero-coupon bonds,
   are not amortized for financial reporting and federal income tax purposes.
   Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are allocated at the class
   level and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment
   income will be declared daily and paid monthly for each Fund except High


                                                                            31

   Yield, which will declare and pay dividends monthly. Net capital gain
   distributions, which are calculated at a Fund level, are declared and paid
   after the end of the tax year in which the gain is realized. Distributions
   are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may
   differ from those determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
   principles; accordingly, periodic reclassifications are made within the
   Funds' capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for
   distribution under federal income tax regulations. At June 30, 2000, accrued
   dividends payable were as follows: Government Intermediate, $670; Investment
   Grade, $510; High Yield, $0; and Government Money Market, $1,021. There were
   no capital gain distributions payable at June 30, 2000.

   Security Transactions

      Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and
   losses from security transactions are reported on an identified cost basis
   for both financial reporting and federal income tax purposes. At June 30,
   2000, receivables for securities sold and payables for securities purchased
   for each Fund were as follows:

                                      Receivable for        Payable for
                                      Securities Sold   Securities Purchased

   Investment Grade                         796                  8,047
   High Yield                             2,595                  5,942
   Government Money Market                   --                 59,581

   Federal Income Taxes

      No provision for federal income or excise taxes is required since each
   Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and
   distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders.

   Use of Estimates

      Preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally
   accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
   assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial
   statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Investment Transactions:

      For the six months ended June 30, 2000, investment transactions (excluding
   short-term investments) were as follows:

      Unused capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes at June
   30, 2000, were as follows: Government Intermediate, $4,791 which expires in
   2002, $699 which expires in 2003, and $4,880 which expires in 2007;
   Investment Grade, $5,433 which expires in 2007; and Government Money Market,
   $2 which expires in 2006. High Yield has no capital loss carryforwards.

3. Repurchase Agreements:

     All repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by obligations issued by
   the U.S. Government or its agencies, and such collateral is in the possession
   of the Funds' custodian. The value of such collateral includes accrued
   interest. Risks arise from the possible delay in recovery or potential loss
   of rights in the collateral should the issuer of the repurchase agreement
   fail financially. The Funds' investment adviser reviews the value of the
   collateral and the creditworthiness of those banks and dealers with which the
   Funds enter into repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks.

4. Options and Futures:

      As part of their investment programs, Government Intermediate and
   Investment Grade may utilize options and futures. Options may be written
   (sold) or purchased by these Funds. When a Fund purchases a put or call
   option, the premium paid is recorded as an investment and its value is
   marked-to-market daily. When a Fund writes a call or put option, an amount
   equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability and its
   value is marked-to-market daily.

      When options, whether written or purchased, expire, are exercised or are
   closed (by entering into a closing purchase or sale transaction), the Fund
   realizes a gain or loss as described in the chart below.

                                      premium originally paid to purchase the option.

   The Fund exercises a put option    Realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying
                                      security. The proceeds of that sale will be reduced by
                                      the premium originally paid to purchase the put option.

                                        transaction if the cost of the closing purchase exceeds
                                        the premium received when the option was written.

   A written call option is exercised   Realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying
   by the option purchaser              security. The proceeds of that sale will be increased by

   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   A written put option is exercised   The amount of the premium originally received will reduce the
   by the option purchaser             cost of the security that the Fund purchased when the option

   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

      The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium
   originally paid. Options written by a Fund involve, to varying degrees, risk
   of loss in excess of the option value reflected in the statement of net
   assets. The risk in writing a covered call option is that a Fund may forego
   the opportunity of profit if the market price of the underlying security
   increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is
   that a Fund may incur a loss if the market price of the underlying security
   decreases and the option is exercised. In addition, there is the risk a Fund
   may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid
   secondary market or, for over-the-counter options, because of the
   counterparty's inability to perform.

      Activity in call and put options during the period was as follows:

   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

      Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit
   with the broker cash or cash equivalents in an amount equal to a certain
   percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the "initial margin."
   Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund
   each day, depending on the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract.
   The daily changes in contract value are recorded as unrealized gains or
   losses and the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is
   closed. Futures contracts are valued daily at the settlement price
   established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.

      The Funds enter into futures contracts as a hedge against anticipated
   changes in interest rates. There are several risks in connection with the use
   of futures contracts as a hedging device. Futures contracts involve, to
   varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the amounts reflected in the
   financial statements. The change in the value of futures contracts primarily
   corresponds with the value of their underlying instruments, which may not
   correlate with the change in the value of the hedged instruments. In
   addition, there is the risk that a Fund may not be able to enter into a
   closing transaction because of an illiquid secondary market.

      The open futures positions and related appreciation or depreciation at
   June 30, 2000, are listed at the end of Government Intermediate's and
   Investment Grade's respective statements of net assets.

5. Financial Instruments:

   Forward Currency Exchange Contracts

      As part of its investment program, High Yield may utilize forward currency
   exchange contracts. The nature and risks of these financial instruments and
   the reasons for using them are set forth more fully in the Corporation's
   prospectus and statement of additional information.

      Forward foreign currency contracts are marked-to-market daily using
   foreign currency exchange rates supplied by an independent pricing service.
   The change in a contract's market value is recorded by High Yield as an
   unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed or delivery is taken,
   the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the
   value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it
   was closed.

      The use of forward foreign currency contracts does not eliminate
   fluctuations in the underlying prices of the Fund's securities, but it does
   establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. These
   forward foreign currency contracts involve market risk in excess of amounts
   reflected in the financial statements. Although forward foreign currency
   contracts used for hedging purposes limit the risk of loss due to a decline
   in the value of the hedged currency, they also limit any potential gain that
   might result should the value of the currency increase. In addition, the Fund
   could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable
   to meet the terms of their contracts. The Fund's adviser will enter into
   forward foreign currency contracts only with parties approved by the Board of
   Directors because there is a risk of loss to the Fund if the counterparties
   do not complete the transaction.

      At June 30, 2000, High Yield had no open forward currency exchange
   contracts.

6. Transactions With Affiliates:

      Each Fund has a management agreement with Legg Mason Fund Adviser, Inc.
   ("LMFA"). Pursuant to their respective agreements, LMFA provides the Funds
   with management and administrative services for which each Fund pays a fee,
   computed daily and payable monthly, at annual rates of each Fund's average
   daily net assets.


                                                                           35

      Western Asset Management Company ("Adviser") serves as investment adviser
   to the Funds. The Adviser is responsible for the actual investment activity
   of each Fund. LMFA pays the Adviser a fee, computed daily and payable
   monthly, at an annual rate of: 40% of the management fee received by LMFA for
   Investment Grade; 77% for High Yield; and 30% for Government Money Market.
   For Government Intermediate, LMFA pays the Adviser a fee, computed daily and
   payable monthly, at 0.20% of its average daily net assets, not to exceed the
   fee received by LMFA.

      Legg Mason Wood Walker, Incorporated ("Legg Mason"), a member of the New
   York Stock Exchange, serves as distributor of the Funds. Legg Mason receives
   an annual distribution fee and an annual service fee based on each Fund's
   Primary Class's average daily net assets, computed daily and payable monthly

7. Line of Credit:

      The Funds, except for Government Money Market, but including certain other
   Legg Mason Funds, participate in a $200 million line of credit ("Credit
   Agreement") to be utilized as an emergency source of cash in the event of
   unanticipated, large redemption requests by shareholders. Pursuant to the
   Credit Agreement, each participating Fund is liable only for principal and
   interest payments related to borrowings made by that Fund. Borrowings under
   the Credit Agreement bear interest at prevailing short-term interest rates.
   For the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Funds had no borrowings under the
   Credit Agreement.

8. Fund Share Transactions:

      At June 30, 2000, there were 1,000,000 shares authorized at $.001 par
   value for all portfolios of the Corporation. Share transactions were as
