SUPPLEMENT TO THE
SPARTAN
U.S. TREASURY MONEY 
MARKET FUND
PROSPECTUS
DATED SEPTEMBER 12, 1994
       SHAREHOLDER MEETING    On     
   April 19, 1995, a meeting of     
   the shareholders of Spartan     
   U.S. Treasury Money Market     
   Fund will be held for the     
   purposes of voting on the     
   conversion (the Conversion)     
   of the fund from a     
   Massachusets business trust     
   to a Delaware business trust     
   (the Delaware Trust), to     
   approve revisions to the     
   fund's management contract,     
   and to approve other matters     
   related to the fund's     
   management.    
   The Conversion will become     
   effective at the close of     
   business on, or about June     
   16, 1995. Upon completion of     
   the Conversion, each current     
   fund shareholder will be the     
   owner of full and fractional     
   Delaware Trust series shares     
   equal in number and value to     
   his or her current fund     
   shares. Principal differences     
   between the Massachusetts     
   business trust and the     
   Delaware business trust form     
   of organization are discussed     
   in the proxy statement dated     
   February 21, 1995 distributed     
   in connection with the April     
   19, 1995 shareholder     
   meeting.    
   If shareholders approve a     
   new management contract,     
   the fund will adopt a revised     
   management fee structure     
   effective May 1, 1995. The     
   revised management fee     
   structure reduces the     
   management fee that FMR     
   receives from the fund     
   0.10%, from 0.55% to 0.45%.    
   Shareholders will also     
   consider proposals to modify     
   certain fundamental     
   investment policies and     
   limitations for the fund     
   including a proposal to     
   modify the fund's borrowing     
   limitation which would permit     
   the fund to engage in reverse     
   repurchase agreements.     
   However, as stated in the     
   proxy statement, the fund's     
   investment objective and     
   certain of the other     
   fundamental policies and     
   limitations will remain     
   fundamental.    
   A copy of the proxy     
   statement may be obtained     
   free of charge by calling     
   Fidelity Distributors     
   Corporation at

counts will be valued on the 
second Friday in November 
of each year. Accounts 
opened after September 30 
will not be subject to the fee 
for that year. The fee, which 
is payable to the transfer 
agent, is designed to offset in 
part the relatively higher 
costs of servicing smaller 
accounts.  The fee will not be 
deducted from retirement 
accounts, accounts using 
regular investment plans, or 
if total assets in Fidelity funds 
exceed $50,000.  Eligibility 
for the $50,000 waiver is 
determined by aggregating 
Fidelity mutual fund accounts 
maintained by FSC or FBSI 
which are registered under 
the same social security
