ALLIANCE INSTITUTIONAL RESERVES
ANNUAL REPORT
APRIL 30, 1999
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS ALLIANCE INSTITUTIONAL RESERVES
_______________________________________________________________________________
June 28, 1999
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide an overview of the economic conditions during
Alliance Institutional Reserves' annual reporting period ended April 30, 1999.
Alliance Institutional Reserves consists of five portfolios--Prime, Government,
Tax Free, Trust, and Treasury. Each Portfolio's investment objectives are--in
the following order of priority--safety of principal, excellent liquidity, and
maximum current income to the extent consistent with the first two objectives.
ECONOMIC COMMENTARY
The past year and a half has seen the U.S. economy weather through many
significant world market crises (such as those in Asia and Brazil) relatively
unscathed. Modest productivity growth, subdued inflation, low unemployment,
stable interest rates, and a still-rising stock market have all contributed to
maintaining the current robust U.S. economy through those crises and into 1999.
Furthermore, we believe that many indicators point towards a moderate
continuation of these beneficial economic and inflationary trends as 1999
continues. Although we believe there is a possibility for a slight decrease in
economic growth and consumer purchases in the latter part of 1999, we still
expect that the U.S. economy will remain sound for the immediate, foreseeable
future.
In the first quarter of 1999, the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate
came down to 4.5%--a beneficial slowdown of 1.5% from the fourth quarter of
1998's exceptional 6% growth rate. Conversely, consumer spending in the U.S.
rose during the same period. For example, physical merchandise purchases were
up 12% in the first quarter of 1999, while purchases of information processing
and related equipment were up 20%. Housing markets and both state and local
government spending were also up during the period under review, contributing
to the U.S. economy's current trend towards growth. These growth areas were
offset, however, by a general weakness in foreign trade, with exports dropping
nearly 8% in the first quarter of 1999. In fact, by our estimates, the U.S.
current account deficit could potentially increase to around $300 billion
dollars in 1999, up from $233 billion in 1998. This could contribute to a
possible modest slowdown in economic growth in the second half of 1999.
Throughout the period under review, consumer price index (CPI) inflation
remained low at only 1.7% year-on-year, while the core CPI inflation rate
(which excludes food and energy) remained at 2.1%--a record low, in fact.
Nevertheless, we believe that the possibility of further CPI inflation remains,
particularly in light of the recent price hike in oil prices from a 12-year low
of $9.55 a barrel to at times more than $18.00 a barrel. Mitigating these
inflationary factors somewhat are employment costs that have risen by only 3.0%
between March of 1998 and March of 1999, and unit labor costs which rose by
only 1.2% over the same period.
Interest rates remain low and, despite a trend toward global economic
stabilization, we anticipate that the Federal Reserve will resist raising rates
significantly in the immediate future. In our view, this is partially due to
the remaining risk of financial disorder in emerging markets, as well as the
Federal Reserve retaining a relaxed perspective on the current U.S. economy.
Altogether, we believe that these indicators point toward continued robustness
and moderate growth for the U.S. economy, and an excellent environment for
investors throughout the remainder of 1999.
Thank you for your continued interest in Alliance Institutional Reserves. We
look forward to reporting to you in the future.
Sincerely,
Ronald M. Whitehill
President

(a) Securities issued in reliance on Section (4) 2 or Rule 144A of the
Securities Act of 1933. Rule 144A securities may be resold in transactions
exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At April
30, 1999, these securities amounted to $236,318,262, representing 10.5% of net
assets on the Prime Portfolio, and $84,801,967, representing 10.7% of net
assets on the Trust Portfolio.
(b) Funding agreements are illiquid securities subject to restrictions as to
resale. These securities amounted to $115,000,000, representing 5.1% of net
assets on the Prime Portfolio, and $10,000,000, representing 1.3% of net assets
on the Trust Portfolio (see Note A to the financial statements).
(c) Repurchase agreement which is terminable within 7 days.
(d) All securities either mature or their interest rate changes in one year or
less.
(e) Variable Rate Demand Notes (VRDN) are instruments whose interest rates
change on a specified date (such as a coupon date or interest payment date) or
whose interest rates vary with changes in a designated base rate (such as the
prime interest rate). These instruments are payable on demand and are secured
by letters of credit or other credit support agreements from major banks.
Periodic Put Bonds (PPB) are payable on demand quarterly, semi-annually or
annually and their interest rates change less frequently than rates on Variable
Rate Demand Notes.

_______________________________________________________________________________
NOTE A: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Alliance Institutional Reserves, Inc. (the "Fund") formerly ACM Institutional
Reserves, Inc., is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an
open-end investment company. On June 22, 1998 the creation of a second and
third class of shares, Class B and Class C shares, was approved by the Board of
Directors (with respect to the Prime, Government, Tax-Free and Treasury
Portfolios). The Fund operates as a series company currently consisting of five
Portfolios: Prime Portfolio, Government Portfolio, Tax-Free Portfolio, Trust
Portfolio and Treasury Portfolio. Each Portfolio is considered to be a separate
entity for financial reporting and tax purposes. The Prime, Government,
Treasury and Tax-Free Portfolios offer all three classes of shares. The Trust
Portfolio offers Class A shares. Each Portfolio pursues its objectives by
maintaining a portfolio of high-quality money market securities all of which,
at the time of investment, have remaining maturities of 397 days or less. The
financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles which require management to make certain estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the
financial statements and amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a
summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund.
1. VALUATION OF SECURITIES
Securities in which the Fund invests are traded primarily in the
over-the-counter market and are valued at amortized cost, under which method a
portfolio instrument is valued at cost and any premium or discount is amortized
on a constant basis to maturity. Certain illiquid securities containing
unconditional par puts are also valued at amortized cost. Amortization of
premium is charged to income. Accretion of market discount is credited to
unrealized gain.
2. TAXES
It is the Fund's policy to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its
investment company taxable income and net realized gains, if any, to its
shareholders. Therefore, no provisions for federal income or excise taxes are
required.
3. INVESTMENT INCOME AND INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Interest income is accrued daily. Investment transactions are recorded on the
date securities are purchased or sold. Investment gains and losses are
determined on the identified cost basis.
4. DIVIDENDS
The Fund declares dividends daily from net investment income and automatically
reinvests such dividends in additional shares at net asset value. Net realized
capital gains on investments, if any, are expected to be distributed near year
end. Dividends paid by Tax-Free Portfolio from net investment income for the
period ended April 30, 1999 are exempt from federal income taxes. However,
certain shareholders may be subject to the alternative minimum tax.
5. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
It is the Fund's policy to take possession of securities as collateral under
repurchase agreements and to determine on a daily basis that the value of such
securities are sufficient to cover the value of the repurchase agreements.
NOTE B: ADVISORY FEE AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AN AFFILIATE OF THE ADVISER
Under the terms of an investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays Alliance
Capital Management L.P., (the "Adviser"), an advisory fee at the annual rate of
.20% of average daily net assets for the Prime, Government, Tax-Free and
Treasury Portfolios and .45% of average daily net assets for the Trust
Portfolio. For the period ended April 30, 1999, the Adviser has agreed to
reimburse each of the Portfolios to the extent necessary to limit total
operating expenses on an annual basis to a certain limit (excluding taxes,
brokerage, interest and, where permitted, extraordinary expenses). For the
period ended April 30, 1999, reimbursement was $986,428, $392,575, $369,058,
$248,847 and $194,894 for the Prime, Government, Tax-Free, Trust and Treasury
Portfolios, respectively.
Each Portfolio compensates Alliance Fund Services, Inc., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Adviser, under a Transfer Agency Agreement for providing
personnel and facilities to perform transfer agency services. Such compensation
for the Prime, Government, Tax-Free, and Trust Portfolios was $18,000 per
Portfolio, and for the Treasury Portfolio, $6,000, for the period ended April
30, 1999.
For the period ended April 30, 1999, the Fund's expenses were reduced by $519,
$108 and $266 for the Prime, Government and Trust Portfolios, respectively
under an expense offset arrangement with Alliance Fund Services.

_______________________________________________________________________________
NOTE C: DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
The Fund has adopted a Distribution Agreement (the "Agreement") which includes
for each Portfolio except the Trust Portfolio, a distribution plan pursuant to
Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under the Agreement, the
Fund pays a distribution fee to the Distributor at an annual rate of .10 of 1%
of the aggregate average daily net assets attributable to Class B shares of the
Prime, Government, Treasury and Tax-Free Portfolios and .25 of 1% of the
aggregate average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares of the Prime,
Government, Treasury and Tax-Free Portfolios. There is no distribution fee on
the Class A shares. Such fees are accrued daily and paid monthly. The Agreement
provides that the Distributor will use such payments in their entirety for
distribution assistance and promotional activities. The Agreement also provides
that the Adviser may use its own resources to finance the distribution of the
Fund's shares.
NOTE D: INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
At April 30, 1999, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was
the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes for all Portfolios. For
federal income tax purposes, the Prime Portfolio had a capital loss
carryforward available to offset future gains at April 30, 1999 of $136,809, of
which $71,055 expires in 2003, $40,007 in 2004 and $25,747 in the year 2005;
the Government Portfolio had a capital loss carryforward of $130,160, of which
$151 expires in 2000, $9,174 in 2001, $51,091 in 2002, $23,230 in 2003, $30,512
in 2004 and $16,002 in the year 2005; the Tax-Free Portfolio had a capital loss
carryforward of $83,495, of which $6,110 expires in 2002, $76,925 in 2004, $400
in 2005 and $60 in the year 2006; the Trust Portfolio had a capital loss
carryforward of $39,764, of which $2,919 expires in 2003, $30,219 in 2004,
$2,251 in 2005 and $4,375 in the year 2006; Treasury Portfolio had a capital
loss carryforward of $2,192, which expires in the year 2007.
NOTE E: CAPITAL STOCK
There are 65,000,000,000 shares of $.01 par value capital stock authorized. At
April 30, 1999, capital paid-in aggregated $2,245,401,477 on Prime Portfolio,
$533,825,125 on Government Portfolio, $451,053,227 on Tax-Free Portfolio,
$795,069,334 on Trust Portfolio and $52,034,680 on Treasury Portfolio.

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of Alliance

the periods indicated in the accompanying financial statements. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Portfolios'
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits 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

April 30, 1999 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Alliance Institutional Reserves--Prime, Government, Tax-Free, Trust and
Treasury Portfolios as of April 30, 1999, and the results of their operations,
