Municipal High Income Fund Inc.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide you with this annual report for the Smith Barney
Municipal High Income Fund Inc. for the twelve months ended October 31, 1995.
Over the past twelve months, the Fund paid dividends totaling $0.6480 per share,
equivalent to an annualized rate of 6.81% based on the Fund's October 31, 1995
net asset value of $9.51 per share and 7.30% based on the New York Stock
Exchange closing price on that date of $8.875.
Market and Portfolio Update
The tax exempt market over the past twelve months has been anything but
dull. Following six interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve in 1994,
economic growth and inflation subsided during 1995. At this point in time,
however, it seems that the fixed income markets have come to the conclusion that
the Federal Reserve has achieved its goal of a soft landing for the economy.
While participating in the market's overall rally, the municipal bond market
lagged the other fixed income markets. The big uncertainty over the municipal
bond market continues to be tax reform.
While there are certainly some near-term risks at current market levels,
our long-term outlook for inflation and interest rates is positive. In addition,
long-term municipals are currently offering excellent value relative to taxable
investments. At more than 90% of the yield on 30-year Treasury bonds, all but
the most radical of tax reform proposals is fully discounted in current
long-term municipal bond prices.
In our view, the Federal Reserve will likely find it necessary to lower
short-term interest rates over the upcoming months to maintain steady economic
growth. A positive resolution of the current budget debate in Washington, D.C.,
would perhaps help to accelerate the pattern of Federal Reserve easing. An
equally important factor to the municipal bond market, however, is the outlook
for a continued low level of inflation.
At the end of October 1995, 60.6% of the Municipal High Income Fund was
invested in securities rated as investment grade by either Standard & Poor's
Corporation or Moody's Investors Service. The Fund's weighted average maturity
at the end of October 1995 was 21.87 years.

================================================================================
The Municipal High Income Fund's dividend per share of $0.054 will be
reduced to $0.051 in December 1995, something that has not been done since
August 1993. The slight reduction in the dividend rate reflects the current
lower earnings rate of the Fund's portfolio as a result of a number of premium
bonds being called away. As these bonds have been called from the Fund's
portfolio, its embedded yield has declined. The Fund has been able to reinvest
the proceeds in investment grade bonds, which at current market rates do not
fully replace the income stream of the called away positions. In our view, the
Fund's lower dividend yield still remains quite attractive based on current
market conditions.
At this time, we would like to thank you for your continued participation
in the Municipal High Income Fund and for your ongoing confidence in our
investment management approach.
Sincerely,
/s/ Heath B. McLendon /s/ Lawrence T. McDermott

Bond Ratings
[Logo]
================================================================================
All ratings are by Standard & Poor's Corporation ("Standard & Poor's"), except
that those identified by an asterisk (*) are rated by Moody's Investors Services
("Moody's"). The definitions of the applicable rating symbols are set forth
below:
Standard & Poor's -- Ratings from "AA" to "BBB" may be modified by the addition
of a plus (+) or a minus (-) sign to show relative standings within the major
rating categories.
AAA -- Bonds rated "AAA"' have the highest rating assigned by
Standard & Poor's. 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 debt 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 debt in this category than in higher rated
categories.
BB, B and CCC -- 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, and CCC the highest degree of speculation. While such
bonds will likely have some quality and protective
characteristics, these are outweighted by large uncertainties
or major risk exposurers to adverse conditions.
Moody's -- Numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 may be applied to each
generic rating from "Aa" to `Baa", where 1 is the highest and 3
the lowest rating within its generic category.
A -- Bonds that are 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.
Ba -- Bonds that are 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.
Baa -- Bonds that are 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.
NR -- Indicates that the bond is not rated by Standard & Poor's or
Moody's.

================================================================================
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Municipal High Income Fund Inc. ("Fund") a Maryland corporation, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a
diversified, closed-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 bid and asked prices provided by an independent
pricing service; (c) short-term securities maturing within 60 days are valued at
cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, as applicable; (d)
gains or losses on the sale of securities are calculated by using the specific
identification method; (e) interest income, adjusted for amortization of
premiums and accretion of original issue discounts, is recorded on the accrual
basis; (f) 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; and (g) certain prior
year numbers have been restated to reflect current year's presentation. Net
investment income, net realized gains, and net assets were not affected by this
change.
2. Investment Advisory Agreement, Administration Agreement
and Other Transactions
Smith Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM"), a subsidiary of Smith
Barney Holdings Inc. ("SBH"), acts as investment adviser to the Fund. The Fund
pays SBMFM an advisory fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.40% of the average
daily net assets. SBMFM also acts as the administrator of the Fund for which it
receives a fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.20% of the average daily net
assets. These fees are calculated daily and paid monthly.
The Fund and SBMFM had entered into a sub-administration agreement
("Agreement") with The Boston Company Advisors, Inc. ("Boston Advisors"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank Corporation. Under this agreement, SBMFM
paid Boston Advisors a portion of its administration fee at a rate agreed upon
from time to time between SBMFM and Boston Advisors. As of June 29, 1995, this
relationship was terminated.
3. Securities Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 1995, cost of purchases and proceeds from
sales of investment securities, excluding short-term investments, aggregated
$35,293,919 and $32,938,495, respectively.

The Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Municipal High Income Fund Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, of Municipal High Income Fund Inc. as of October
31, 1995, and the related statement of operations, statement of changes in net
assets and financial highlights for the year then ended. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial highlights based on our audit. The statement of changes
in net assets for the year ended October 31, 1994 and the financial highlights
for each of the years in the four-year period then ended, were audited by other
auditors whose report thereon, dated December 15, 1994, expressed an unqualified
opinion on that statement of changes in net assets and those financial
highlights.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our
procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 1995, by
correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Municipal High Income Fund Inc.
as of October 31, 1995, and the results of its operations, changes in its net
assets and financial highlights for the year then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan (unaudited)
[Logo]
================================================================================
Under the Fund's Dividend Reinvestment and Cash Purchase Plan (the "Plan"),
a shareholder whose Common Stock is registered in his own name will have all
distributions reinvested automatically by the First Data Investor Services
Group, Inc. ("FDIS") as agent under the Plan, unless the shareholder elects to
receive cash. Distributions with respect to shares registered in the name of a
broker-dealer or other nominee (that is, in "street name") will be reinvested by
the broker or nominee in additional Common Stock under the Plan, but only if the
service is provided by the broker or nominee, and the broker or nominee makes an
election on behalf of the shareholder to participate in the Plan. Distributions
with respect to Common Stock registered in the name of Smith Barney will
automatically be reinvested by Smith Barney in additional shares under the Plan
unless the shareholder elects to receive distributions in cash. A shareholder
who holds Common Stock registered in the name of a broker or other nominee may
not be able to transfer the Common Stock to another broker or nominee and
continue to participate in the Plan. Investors who own Common Stock registered
in street name should consult their broker or nominee for details regarding
reinvestment.
The number of shares of Common Stock distributed to participants in the
Plan in lieu of a cash dividend is determined in the following manner. Whenever
the market price of the Fund's Common Stock is equal to or exceeds 98% of net
asset value per share at the time shares are valued for determining the number
of shares equivalent to the cash dividend or capital gains distribution,
participants will be issued shares of Common Stock valued at the greater of (i)
98% of net asset value per share or (ii) 95% of the then current market price.
If 98% of the net asset value per share of Common Stock at the time of valuation
exceeds the market price of the Common Stock, FDIS will buy shares of the Fund's
Common Stock on the open market, on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. or
elsewhere, beginning on the record date of the dividend or distribution, until
it has expended for such purchases all of the cash that would otherwise be
payable to the participants. The number of purchased shares that will then be
credited to the participants' accounts will be based on the average per share
purchase price of the shares so purchased, including brokerage commissions. If
FDIS commences purchases in the open market and the market price of the shares
subsequently exceeds 98% of their net asset value before the completion of the
purchases, FDIS will attempt to terminate purchases in the open market and cause
the Fund to issue the remaining dividend or distribution in shares at 98% of the
net asset value per share. In this case, the number of shares of Common Stock
received by the participant will be based on the weighted average of prices paid
for shares purchased in the open market and the price at which the Fund issues
the remaining shares.
Plan participants are not subject to any charge for reinvesting dividends
or capital gains distributions. Each participant will, however, bear a
proportionate share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to FDIS's
open market purchases of shares of Common Stock in connection with the
reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions. For the year ended
October 31, 1995, no such brokerage commissions were incurred.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan (unaudited)
[Logo] (continued)
================================================================================
The automatic reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions
will not relieve Plan participants of any income tax that may be payable on the
dividends or capital gains distributions. A participant in the Plan will be
treated for federal income tax purposes as having received, on the dividend
payment date, a dividend or distribution in an amount equal to the cash that the
participant could have received instead of shares of Common Stock.
A shareholder may terminate participation in the Plan at any time by
notifying FDIS in writing. A termination will be effective immediately if notice
is received by FDIS not less than 10 days before any dividend or distribution
record date. Otherwise, the termination will be effective, and only with respect
to any subsequent dividends or distributions, on the first trading day after the
dividend or distribution has been credited to the participant's account in
additional shares of Common Stock of the Fund. Upon termination according to a
participant's instructions, FDIS will either (a) issue certificates for the
whole shares credited to a Plan account and a check representing any fractional
shares or (b) sell the shares in the market. There will be a $5.00 fee assessed
for liquidation service, plus brokerage commissions, and FDIS is authorized to
sell a sufficient number of a participant's shares to cover such amounts.
The Plan is described in more detail on pages 21-23 of the Fund's
Prospectus dated August 23, 1993. Information concerning the Plan may be
obtained from FDIS at (800) 331-1710.
