DEAN WITTER NEW YORK MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET TRUST
LETTER TO THE SHAREHOLDERS June 30, 1996
Two World Trade Center, New York, New York 10048
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
In contrast to the pattern of lower interest rates in 1995, tax-free money
market yields trended upward during the first six months of 1996. The fixed
income markets opened the year with a confident tone and the decline in
short-term interest rates which started one year earlier was sustained into
mid-February. The positive outlook faded, however, as healthy economic
indicators aroused concern that the Federal Reserve's easing step in late
January could be its last. The shift in market psychology began in earnest
after a surprisingly large increase in payroll employment was reported in
early March. By the end of June prevailing sentiment entertained the
possibility of the Fed tightening later in the summer.
At the long end of the tax-free money market, yields for municipal securities
maturing in six months to one year moved higher in conjunction with the rise
in taxable money market yields. The Bond Buyer One Year Note Index, a widely
followed indicator of longer-term municipal money market interest rates,
dipped to a two-year low of 3.08 percent in mid-February aided by seasonal
demand. For the balance of the first half of 1996 one year note rates rose
steadily and the Index reached 3.88 percent at the end of June.
Interest rates for shorter maturities, represented by daily and weekly
variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs), responded to the seasonal pattern of
cash flows. Weekly VRDO yields dropped quickly at the start of the year
falling from 5.00 percent in late December to 3.00 percent in early February
in the face of strong demand, rose above 4.00 percent during tax payment
season in late April and declined again to finish June at 3.30 percent.
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Dean Witter New York Municipal Money Market Trust produced a total return of
1.23 percent for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996. Thirty-day yields
ranged from a low of 2.34 percent for the month of March to a high of 2.67
percent for the month of May.
<PAGE>
DEAN WITTER NEW YORK MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET TRUST
LETTER TO THE SHAREHOLDERS June 30, 1996, continued
The Fund's net assets exceeded $41 million, with 67 percent of the Fund's
portfolio invested in VRDOs. New York-exempt commercial paper and municipal
notes, the two other types of securities utilized in the portfolio, comprised
24 percent and 9 percent of the portfolio, respectively.
During most of the six-month period, the Fund's weighted average maturity fell
within a short to moderate range of 30 to 50 days. Seasonal purchases of new
one-year tax and revenue anticipation notes (TRANS) marketed in June caused
the average maturity to extend. At the end of June, the Fund's average
maturity had lengthened to 61 days, well within the overall limit of 90 days.
Portfolio holdings are continuously reviewed to maintain or improve
creditworthiness. Particular attention is devoted to monitoring the credit
quality of banks providing letters of credit and liquidity facilities for our
investments. Over the past several years, mounting concern about Japanese bank
exposure had prompted the steady reduction in securities supported by these
banks. The final holding was eliminated early in the first half of 1996.
LOOKING AHEAD
Over the coming months, the market's attention will be focused on the Federal
Reserve Board's next step in monetary policy. Strong employment numbers and
the potential for inflation prompt a cautious approach to the risk of rising
interest rates. In this uncertain environment the average maturity of the
Fund's portfolio is expected to remain conservative. As always, we will
maintain our emphasis on high quality and liquidity in making investment
selections.
We appreciate your support of Dean Witter New York Municipal Money Market
Trust and look forward to continuing to serve your investment needs and
objectives.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Charles A. Fiumefreddo
CHARLES A. FIUMEFREDDO
Chairman of the Board

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 1996 (unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Dean Witter New York Municipal Money Market Trust (the "Fund") is registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as a
non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund's investment
objective is to provide a high level of daily income which is exempt from
federal and New York income tax, consistent with stability of principal and
liquidity. The Fund was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on
December 28, 1989 and commenced operations on March 20, 1990.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ
from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting
policies:
A. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS -- Portfolio securities are valued at amortized
cost, which approximates market value.
B. ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS -- Security transactions are accounted for on
the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Realized gains and
losses on security transactions are determined on the identified cost method.
The Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts over the life of the
respective securities. Interest income is accrued daily.
C. FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS -- It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute all of its taxable and nontaxable income to its
shareholders. Accordingly, no federal income tax provision is required.
D. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- The Fund records dividends
and distributions to shareholders as of the close of each business day.
2. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
Pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement with the Dean Witter
InterCapital Inc. (the "Investment Manager"), the Fund pays the Investment
Manager a management fee, accrued daily and payable monthly, by applying the
following annual rates to the net assets of the Fund determined as of the
close of each business day: 0.50% to the portion of daily net assets not
exceeding $500 million; 0.425% to the portion of daily net assets exceeding
$500 million but not exceeding $750 million; 0.375% to the portion of daily
net assets exceeding $750 million but not exceeding $1 billion; 0.35% to the
portion of
<PAGE>
DEAN WITTER NEW YORK MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 1996 (unaudited) continued
daily net assets exceeding $1 billion but not exceeding $1.5 billion; 0.325%
to the portion of daily net assets exceeding $1.5 billion but not exceeding $2
billion; 0.30% to the portion of daily net assets exceeding $2 billion but not
exceeding $2.5 billion; 0.275% to the portion of daily net assets exceeding
$2.5 billion but not exceeding $3 billion; and 0.25% to the portion of daily
net assets exceeding $3 billion.
Under the terms of the Agreement, in addition to managing the Fund's
investments, the Investment Manager maintains certain of the Fund's books and
records and furnishes, at its own expense, office space, facilities,
equipment, clerical, bookkeeping and certain legal services and pays the
salaries of all personnel, including officers of the Fund who are employees of
the Investment Manager. The Investment Manager also bears the cost of
telephone services, heat, light, power and other utilities provided to the
Fund.
3. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Dean Witter Distributors Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of the
Investment Manager, is the distributor of the Fund's shares and, in accordance
with a Plan of Distribution (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act,
finances certain expenses in connection therewith.
Under the Plan, the Distributor bears the expense of all promotional and
distribution related activities on behalf of the Fund, except for expenses
that the Trustees determine to reimburse, as described below. The following
activities and services may be provided by the Distributor and other
broker-dealers under the Plan: (1) compensation to, and expenses of, the
Distributor and other broker-dealers; (2) sales incentives and bonuses to
sales representatives and to marketing personnel in connection with promoting
sales of the Fund's shares; (3) expenses incurred in connection with promoting
sales of the Fund's shares; (4) preparing and distributing sales literature;
and (5) providing advertising and promotional activities, including direct
mail solicitation and television, radio, newspaper, magazine and other media
advertisements.
The Fund is authorized to reimburse the Distributor for specific expenses the
Distributor incurs or plans to incur in promoting the distribution of the
Fund's shares. The amount of each monthly reimbursement payment may in no
event exceed an amount equal to a payment at the annual rate of 0.15% of the
Fund's average daily net assets during the month. Expenses incurred by the
Distributor pursuant to the Plan in any fiscal year will not be reimbursed by
the Fund through payments accrued in any subsequent fiscal year. For the six
months ended June 30, 1996, the distribution fee was accrued at the annual
rate of 0.08%.
4. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales/maturities of portfolio
securities for the six months ended June 30, 1996 aggregated $53,922,520 and
$49,530,000, respectively.
