THE TREASURER'S FUND
June 24, 1996
Dear Fellow Shareholder:
We are pleased to present the semi-annual report for The Treasurer's Fund
for the six months ended April 30, 1996. The total net assets of The Treasurer's
Fund portfolios on April 30, 1996 (in millions) were:
Domestic Prime Money Market Portfolio $216.3
Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio 135.2
U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio 84.2
------
$435.7
The portfolios continue to hold investments in very high quality money
market securities of domestic, corporate and municipal issuers and U.S.
Government obligations. The weighted average maturities of the portfolios were
well within the permitted maximum of 90 days as stated below:
Domestic Prime Money Market Portfolio 56 days
Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio 43 days
U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio 55 days
It has been hard to argue against the trend for higher rates given that the
first quarter of 1996 was stronger (2.8%) than the fourth quarter of 1995
(0.5%). Along with higher than trend growth comes the inevitable argument for a
marked increase in the rate of inflation. Although the inflation numbers have
been relatively well behaved to this point, the fear is that the increased
demand generated by an economy that is growing above the trend line with low
unemployment will likely result in a higher inflation rate.
The swiftness and severity of the back up in rates (over 100 basis points)
and the corresponding erosion of price levels, began when February's payroll
number was announced up 694,000 taking the consensus opinion by surprise. The
Labor Department surprised us again with their most recent report. Not only was
May's non-farm payroll number up 348,000 (over twice the consensus opinion) but
April's number originally reported up a meager 2,000 jobs was revised to a much
more respectable up 163,000. The argument for an increase in wage inflation
drove market participants to run for cover as the Federal Reserve Bank's Open
Market Committee went from its early easing directive to one of neutrality.
Adding fuel to the fire has been the recent increase in fuel and grain prices
and a Commodity Research Bureau (CRB) index which has seen an eight year high of
260.40. In addition, the collapse of any substantial budget deal out of
Washington effectively took away what was left of the bull's thunder and added
to the market's woes.
In retrospect, the market was overbought in January. Bad weather and
Government shutdowns led to a lack of economic information, driving yields to
levels not seen in two years. When the spigot was turned back on and the
situation began to brighten the consensus forecast of further Fed easing
evaporated and talk of tightening threw the market into a 180 degree tailspin.
While we believe the current mix of economic data will likely keep the Fed
on hold this summer, a tightening bias could find its way into the Fed's
directive again demonstrating their resolve to control inflation.
Sincerely,
/s/ Ronald S. Eaker
Ronald S. Eaker
President and Chief Investment Officer
The Domestic Prime Money Market Portfolio, Tax-Exempt Money Market Portfolio,
and U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio attempt to maintain a stable net asset
value per share of $1.00. There can be no assurance that the Portfolios will be
successful in this regard.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Investments in the Portfolios are not insured, nor guaranteed, by the U.S.
Government.

THE TREASURER'S FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
APRIL 30, 1996
1. The Treasurer's Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is an open-end, diversified
management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, (the "Act"). The Fund currently consists of six separately
managed portfolios: U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio, Domestic Prime
Money Market Portfolio, Global Money Market Portfolio, Tax Exempt Money
Market Portfolio, Limited Term Portfolio and Tax Exempt Limited Term
Portfolio (collectively, the "Portfolios"). Of these, the U.S. Treasury Money
Market Portfolio, the Domestic Prime Money Market Portfolio and the Tax
Exempt Money Market Portfolio have commenced operations. The following is a
summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund
in preparation of its financial statements:
(A) The Domestic Prime Money Market Portfolio, the Tax Exempt Money
Market Portfolio and the U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio value
all portfolio securities by the amortized cost method which
approximates market value in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(B) It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its "investment
company taxable income," as defined in the Code, and net capital
gains, if any, to its shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax
provision is required. The Fund intends to treat each Portfolio as a
separate entity taxable as a corporation for Federal income tax
purposes and to have each Portfolio qualify and elect to be taxed as
a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal
Revenue Code.
(C) Net investment income, including short-term capital gains, is
declared as dividends daily and paid monthly; however, if an
investor's shares are redeemed during a month, accrued but unpaid
dividends are paid with the redemption proceeds. Dividends are
payable to shareholders of record at the time of declaration.
(D) Investment transactions are recorded on trade date. Identified cost
of investments sold is used for both financial statement and Federal
income tax purposes. Interest income, including the amortization of
discount or premium, is recorded as earned. When-issued securities
are recorded on the date on which the priced transaction
confirmation is issued.
(E) Certain administrative expenses are common to, and allocated among,
the Portfolios. Such allocations are made on the basis of each
Portfolio's average net assets or other criteria directly affecting
the expenses.
(F) USE OF ESTIMATES. 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 from these amounts.
2. The Fund retains Gabelli-O'Connor Fixed Income Mutual Funds Management Co.
("Gabelli-O'Connor") to act as Investment Advisor and Furman Selz LLC (
"Furman Selz" ) to act as Administrator for the Fund. Gabelli-O'Connor
supervises all aspects of the Fund's operations and provides investment
advice and portfolio management services to the Fund. Subject to the
supervision of the Fund's Board of Directors, the Advisor makes the Fund's
day-to-day investment decisions, arranges for the execution of portfolio
transactions and generally manages the Fund's investments. The Advisor also
provides supervisory personnel who are responsible for supervising the
performance of administrative services, accounting and related services, net
asset value and yield calculations, reports to and filings with regulatory
authorities and services relating to such functions. However, the
Administrator provides personnel to perform the operational components of
such services.
Pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement with each of the
Portfolios, Furman Selz provides all management and administrative services
necessary for the Fund, other than those provided by the Advisor, subject to
the supervision of the Fund's Board of Directors.

THE TREASURER'S FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
APRIL 30, 1996
As compensation for their respective services, Gabelli-O'Connor and Furman
Selz are entitled to monthly fees with respect to each Portfolio.
Gabelli-O'Connor earns fees at the following annualized rates:
--------------------------------------------------------
AVERAGE DAILY VALUE OF GABELLI-
NET ASSETS OF EACH PORTFOLIO O'CONNOR
--------------------------------------------------------
U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio 0.30%
Domestic Prime Money Market Portfolio 0.30%
Money Market Plus Portfolio 0.30%
Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio 0.30%
Limited Term Portfolio 0.45%
Tax Exempt Limited Term Portfolio 0.45%
--------------------------------------------------------
For the services rendered to the Fund by the Administrator, the Fund pays the
Administrator a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, in accordance with
the following schedule: (i) 0.10% of the first $500 million of aggregate
average daily net assets of the Fund and, (ii) 0.065% of the next $250
million of aggregate average daily net assets of the Fund, (iii) 0.055% of
the next $250 million of aggregate average daily net assets of the Fund, and
(iv) 0.050% of all aggregate average daily net assets of the Fund over $1
billion.
The Administrator also provides the Fund with all accounting related
services. For the fund accounting services provided, the Administrator is
paid a fee of $2,500 plus out of pocket expenses per Portfolio per month.
For the six months ended April 30, 1996, Gabelli-O'Connor was entitled to
fees of $308,077, $222,964 and $130,513, respectively, from the Domestic
Prime Money Market Portfolio, the Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio and the
U.S. Treasury Money Market Portfolio. For fund accounting and administrative
servicing fees during this period, Furman Selz received $15,742 and $102,692,
respectively, from the Domestic Prime Money Market Portfolio, $18,144 and
$74,321, respectively, from the Tax Exempt Money Market Portfolio and $15,492
and $43,504, respectively, from the US. Treasury Money Market Portfolio.
Furman Selz acts as the Fund's transfer and dividend disbursing agent. The
Fund compensates Furman Selz for providing personnel and facilities to
perform transfer agency related services for the Fund at a rate intended not
to exceed the cost of providing such services. During the six months ended
April 30, 1996, Furman Selz was entitled to and voluntarily waived fees of
$8,539 for the Domestic Prime Money Market Portfolio, $4,619 for the Tax
Exempt Money Market Portfolio and $2,448 for the U.S. Treasury Money Market
Portfolio.
The Fund has adopted a distribution and service plan (the "Plan" ) pursuant
to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for each Portfolio of
the Fund. There are no fees or expenses chargeable to the Fund under the Plan
and the Fund's Board of Directors has adopted the Plan in case certain
expenses of the Fund might be considered to constitute indirect payment by
the Fund of distribution expenses. GOC Fund Distributors, Inc. (the
"Distributor") serves as the exclusive Distributor of the shares of each
Portfolio pursuant to its Distribution Agreement with the Fund.
The Advisor has agreed to reimburse each Portfolio for its expenses
(exclusive of interest, taxes, brokerage, and extraordinary expenses) which
in any year exceed the lesser of (i) 1.50% of the Portfolio's average annual
net assets or (ii) the limits on investment company expenses prescribed by
any state in which the Portfolio's shares are qualified for sale. From time
to time, the Advisor may voluntarily assume certain expenses of any Portfolio
of the Fund as noted above. No such reimbursement was required during the six
months ended April 30, 1996, for any of the Portfolios.
3. At April 30, 1996, there were twenty billion shares of capital stock, having
a par value of one tenth of one cent ($0.001) per share, authorized. Each
Portfolio has been allocated two billion shares of the authorized capital
stock. The balance of eight billion shares of capital stock may be issued in
an existing or newly created class by resolution of the Board of Directors.
Transactions in capital stock shares at $1.00 per share were as follows:

agreement, and the Portfolio will make payment for such securities only upon
physical delivery or upon evidence of book entry transfer to the account of
the custodian. If the value of the underlying securities falls below the
value of the repurchase price plus accrued interest, the Fund will require
the seller to deposit additional collateral by the next business day. If the
request for additional collateral is not met, or the seller defaults on its
repurchase obligation, the Portfolios maintain the right to sell the
underlying securities at market value and may claim any resulting loss
against the seller.
5. In the pursuit of the Fund's minimum credit risk investment policy, each
Portfolio maintains a diversified portfolio of money market instruments, each
of which matures or resets to par in less than 397 days from date of purchase
and is determined to represent minimal credit risk in accordance with the
policies and procedures approved by the Fund's Directors. The ability of the
issuer of the instruments to meet their obligations may be affected by
economic developments in a specific industry, region or state.
6. The Fund may lend its securities to broker-dealers and other institutional
investors. The Fund's policy is to receive collateral on each loan equal at
all times to the market value of the securities loan plus accrued interest.
The Fund may bear the risk of delay in receiving additional collateral or in
recovering the securities loaned or even a loss of rights in the collateral
should the borrower of the securities fail financially. The Fund receives
compensation for lending its securities in the form of fees or through the
reinvestment of collateral of any cash received as collateral. The Fund also
continues to receive interest on the securities loaned, and any gain or loss
in the market price of the securities loaned that may occur during the term
of the loan will be for the account of the Fund.
7. The Portfolios are permitted to enter into reverse repurchase agreements for
liquidity purposes or when it is able to purchase other securities which will
produce more income than the cost of the agreement. The Portfolios may enter
into reverse repurchase agreements only with those member banks of the
Federal Reserve System and broker-dealers who are recognized as primary
dealers in U.S. government securities by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York
whose creditworthiness has been reviewed and found satisfactory by the Fund's
Board of Directors. When engaging in reverse repurchase transactions, the
Portfolios will maintain, in a segregated account with its Custodian,
securities equal in value to those subject to the agreement.
8. During the year ended October 31, 1995, the Domestic Prime Money Market
Portfolio realized losses on the sale of certain securities. Pursuant to an
undertaking, losses in the amount of $262,913 were reimbursed to the Fund by
Gabelli-O'Connor. In addition, Gabelli-O'Connor currently has undertaken,
under circumstances, to reimburse the Domestic Prime Money Market Portfolio
with respect to realized losses on certain securities previously held in the
portfolio in an amount which would maintain its net asset value at $1 per
share.
